I didn’t bother with the official repair kit, instead, I got some hydraulic seals that were the correct size. They are still going strong. A tenth of the price of the official kit too .

Hi The light is just a tight push fit. I used a thin tool to get between the front clear lens and the rear cover, slowly going around the edge until it started parting. it isn't glued together.

If you're very clever, you can fit a Motoscope Pro dash. it has been done to the 701 vitpilen !

I check the side stand switch. Tie the side stand up in place so that it cannot bounce around, and then do a run !

I hope that someone knows. Im struggling to find a match for the blue !

I do have a liking for pinning the throttle and riding like I’m on a supermoto. The single track roads don’t help in wanting to play !

How did you manage to get 10K out of that tyre, I’m lucky to get 3k out of a rear tyre. And that is down to the cords too !

The mice have eaten the engine and wheels !

Has anyone found out what the colour code is for the Blue Vitpilen ?

I was there in the 90’s a couple of times with a CBR600, everything was a bit more wild then and fun ! Definitely somewhere that every serious biker should visit at least once, definitely no other place like it.

The good old days when you could ride most of the road flat out on your own bike have gone, flat out on the mountain was fun on mad Sunday !

The front clear lens of the headlight needs to be carefully removed. Gently prise it off using a screwdriver, you will then need to strip the light down to access the 4 x LED’s that light the ring up. I put some yellow plastic between the LED’s and the plastic rings.

If it is anything like the side stand switch, if the polarity of the magnet is the wrong way round, it wont work !

Has your slave cylinder been changed or upgraded ? There is also a possibility that with the high heat, any moisture in the clutch fluid could have been boiling. Same as if you had air in the system ! That maybe BS The usual symptoms of the master cylinder seal failing is the leaver not...

Update So far the new seal is working with no problems at all. I have just picked up the Madura seal kit and thought I would measure the new seal against the old one. The old seal has swelled to increase the diameter of the seal by approximately 2mm. For a small seal it is quite a lot. Going to...
