    801 Slip-on / exhaust list

    Some ps paint schemes of the customized slip-on made from the aftermarket 800NK exhaust and the aftermarket muffler. In my opinion the proportions and the lines fit the 801 quite nicely; and I like the complete black indeed very much...

    Writing on the wall?

    it's a very informative interview; @Joa thanks for sharing. From min 30:00 he speaks about Husqvarna. "This naked bike segment of Husqvarna (Svartpilen and Vitpilen) will be phased out gratually; and there are no more priorities there."

    Writing on the wall?

    I completely agree; but instead, I have to have the overpriced annual service performed by a certified KTM/Husqvarna dealer (regardless of the mileage) to get the four-years warranty. Without the annual service, the warranty period is only two years. Ultimately, I end up paying about EUR 400 -...

    Writing on the wall?

    I've not heard or read anything about it; but from the sales-numbers it would make sense. Early 2024 I saw an initial preview in a magazine and was thrilled; after a test ride, I was so impressed that I ordered a Svartpilen immediately (nearly at list price) and also opted for several (quite...

    801 320mm brake discs

    From what I've read it's mainly the material of the stock/OEM Galfer discs that causes the problem; the quality of the after market Galfer discs seems to be better. But it's not just the warping; a webfind; some pics of some stock/OEM 890-R Galfer discs; I've never seen something similar at any...

    801 320mm brake discs

    (y) Did you also order the sintered pads? From my experience the combination works very good! https://www.genialmotor.it/en/front-brembo-sa-brake-pads-for-ktm-duke-790-2018-2019-108067.html

    801 320mm brake discs

    @toast449 The waved Galfer discs from the Rottweiler-kit are about USD 215 each from Italy. https://www.genialmotor.it/en/galfer-front-right-brake-disc-wave-floating-complete-320x5m-ktm-890-duke-r-2019-2020-282219.html

    801 320mm brake discs

    I know of someone who had them replaced under warranty several times; and he ended up with after market discs to ultimately solve the problem.

    It's a known issue; with the 801 and also several KTM models. https://hqvadventure.com/forum/threads/issues-fixed-under-warranty.1868/

    801 320mm brake discs

    From what I know the 890 SMT brake discs are 64mm (inner diameter) instead of 52mm and they have an offset of 9.7mm; the will not fit. Additionally I would generally avoid stock/OEM Galfer discs as they generally tend to warp (on several KTM models).

    Thoughts on 2027 790 Duke

    From what I found the curb weight (road-ready with 90% fuel) of the 801 is 191kg; the "old" Duke 790 is 188kg. The new 2027 790 is set to weigh 2 kg less, because of a new, lighter subframe. In total it would be a difference of about 5kg / 11lbs. That seems more plausible to me.

    Thoughts on 2027 790 Duke

    That surprises me too. It’s virtually the same bike, just with a few differently designed parts.
