Pic from husky website show standard Vit bars are pretty close.

I think even flat bars would hit the tank sides on full lock, I doubt if the bars can go much lower than where they are now without risking some hand control interference.

I do not want to upset our larger cc brothers in the 801 forum but….. I prefer the Vitpilen to the Svartpilen! Spoked wheels would have looked much better on both bikes though or almost any bike that is not a sports bike. I love spoked wheels…!

I am no expert in modern motorcycle electronics but in the manual for your bike it says when the abs rear lamp is on rear abs is deactivated (supermoto mode) and when the tc lamp is on the traction control is deactivated (again supermoto mode will deactivate tc) so you will need to change...

Mine had more bits of ‘liquid gasket’ and about the same fuzz of metal on the magnet as this. I also had some small 1-2mm silver glitter (not steel as not on the magnet) and some very fine silver sheen which had not been trapped by these filters or the main paper one. I changed oil at 340 miles...

Glad you got to the bottom of that conundrum. Ride safe.

You should give them a test whilst stationary with your engine running, just count how long they stay on for. If they do not cancel after a certain amount of time then a try and test them in a car park (parking lot) or similar whilst riding and turning. I must admit self cancelling indicators...

I do not think it is ‘you’ in the 701 part of this site (5th post from top) someone had the same issue with their bike. If it were my new bike I would return to the dealer I bought it from to diagnose the issue. Ask them for an explanation of what causes the issue. I really doubt you can cause...

Huskymoto.co.uk should be able to sort you out.

Ducati Monster, twin termi’s perhaps?

I have a Nitron R1 rear shock on my 23’ Svart. It has a spring set for my weight of 90-95kg the spring is 800lb or 140Nm. I also have fitted YSS fork springs at 7.5Nm, they are for the KTM 390 Adventure but fit perfectly in WP forks. I changed to Motul 5w fork oil. The handling has dramatically...

Another vote for FuelX lite, it takes out the lumpiness in lower rev range and tames a snatchy throttle.

At home now so took some pics…. Ignore the screwdriver handle it is holding the chain upwards whilst I took pics. Yellow arrow is point on swingarm to do check, measure under here not where the red dotted line is….. Measure here where the flat part is, still under the arrow. I use a 6mm...

I do mine on a paddock stand but you can get someone to hold the bike upright if needed. You measure the gap between the swingarm and the chain at 5-7mm I use a 6 mm Allen key between the chain and the underneath of the swingarm. On the swingarm there is a bit where the braces meet as shown in...

I am actually tempted to buy one for spares, new engine, another set of wheels, body colour change when I feel the mood.

A lot of bike for £3499 new. I should have waited to buy mine till early 2024 but I had seen spy shots of the new ‘24 Svartpilen and did not like the look. I thought the ‘23 ones would sell out by the end of 2023 so I pulled the trigger in September. Had I known there would be loads of old stock...

At nearly £700, no I have found the spring upgrade and good quality oil has sorted the front for me. I originally had no intention of changing the suspension but found the WP shock really quite cheaply made and the damping too much for the spring. The forks are better quality, though not by...

The lining on my leathers disintegrated in the loft about 10 years ago, I binned them. I am a riding jeans and jacket man now… I did a couple of the Ron Haslam riding school days at Donington 17years ago. Loved it but that was on someone else’s bike. Convincing the wife to get another bike in my...

Awesome. When I read Snetterton I thought, no way, that little 401 will look like it’s going backwards on such a fast track….. Then I googled Snetterton (used to be one of the fastest tracks in the UK) and thought, that is not the track I remember. I had no idea they changed the lay out! That...

That sounds mean as f###, I like it a lot. Some pipes are disproportionately too loud for the size of the bike, like straight pipes on a 125cc but yours sounds perfect. Hope you have a good set of ear plugs!!!
