Love your tinkering, you look at something and say, ‘no I do not want it looking like that’ then you make it how you want it to be. Very inspiring, keep up the good work👍

Are they not answering phone? The shopping experience was a little vague when I bought mine. They do not say which year the product works with, turns out all years before 2023. The issue buying from them now is the newer 2024 onwards model, I believe the one they currently sell is for the older...

Did you know you can also flip your original handlebar clamps to move the bars further forward? Mine were already on the furthest forward position from factory. The clamps are designed to do this, it is on page 52 of the owners manual. It looks like you are trying to get the bars further...

Front brake sensor, turn on ignition, pull on front brake, does it light up? If no, plug it in, turn on ignition, pull front brake, brake light should come on. Unplug again, make wires longer, then plug in again. There is no cable for throttle, it is ride by wire.

Years ago I would mod my bike regardless of it being legal, things like really loud pipes, tiny number plates no chain guard etc. When I came back to biking I made a decision to keep my bike totally UK legal, this means I no longer need to worry about getting pulled for minor legal...

Disc brakes are automatically adjusted as the pads wear. The pistons (which squeeze the pads) sit in the caliper with a seal which is square on section, when you squeeze the brakes the fluid pushes the piston and the seal flexes to allow the piston to move. When you release the pressure on the...

Pics… Rear.. Wear bar showing almost no wear at 1500miles No flattening of centre tread, you can see the 3 compounds clearly with the super sticky sides showing darker than the harder middle compound. Only used 1.2mm of rear tread so far. This is the front. I do not think I could ever...

I have 1500 miles on my Bridgestone S22 tyres which are 110/70/17F and 14/70/17R bike is 2023 Svartpilen 401 with many suspension mods. I am very happy with how these tyres perform and have no issues using all of the rear tyre in the dry. I do not ride in the wet so cannot comment on how they...

If you search “chain tension confusion” I show you how I check mine for correct slack.

I thought I was but every time I try to pick a bike the site automatically goes back to uk. I tried on my phone to go to USA site but there are no prices for any models only technical accessories. 🤷‍♂️

It is not on the front page for naked but is there under configurator. Only 2024 though but both Svart and Vit and 401 and 125 and Svart only in 801.

You have changed the gearing to accelerate harder, is it not possible your bike may now be actually using the traction control.?

I found a 42 rear from manufacturer Afam, I tried it with the standard 15 front but went back to 45 as I preferred the bike with standard acceleration. I could not find a 16 front anywhere in Europe for my 23’ Svartpilen. The Afam 42 was on EBay here in the uk and was advertised as a KTM duke...

I got mine for my 2023 401 from eBay, seller was ‘manual.central’ he prints them and ring binds them. They are £33 with postage. Just search the year and model you have on eBay.

Hello, quick search on google found a video on YouTube… This should work? Good luck and enjoy your new bike.

Congrats on your new bike. So, are going to be ‘doing a thing’ on this one? and is it going burgundy and grey?

That is really nice, the brown seat, luggage, tank and bar pad make it look rugged and purposeful. I was not a fan of the screen but on yours, in dark with the headlight guard it looks great. The best bit on the bike is the high level to underslung titanium exhaust. It really frees up the look...

Cannot help with the dash and units but….. Try a 15 minute reset of the ECU to try and sort your low RPM. I do it on paddock stand for 15 min 30 seconds and it helped after fitting exhaust and I also do it after an oil change. Follow this guide taken from duke 390 forum. It might help. Let...

Mine (2023) has the same. Looks like it has been checked with green marker twice, my guess and it is just a guess is that a probe screws in for setting throttle body during building of bike. This is then removed once checked. There is no evidence on mine that’s bolt has been in there before the...

I believe others have used a dremel to remove any blobs of weld that are in the way or holding the bolt to the exhaust, then just undo the bolt with a socket!! Sometimes the bolt will come out on the socket if you are lucky but it may fall into the end of the exhaust. You will then have to...
