Hi there, To the point: my starter motor died again, brushes get stuck from dust [btw where i can get brushes for vitpilen 701 starter motor? mine are almost gone, and i can't find replacement for brushes anywhere], repaired, cleaned, installed, starter spinning, engine is not turning, okey...

I'm afraid that scammy bastards won't write back to you, they like to get your money but they won't do replacements for faulty items or any repairs.

Yup, same as mine. Let us know if you get answer from BW [Bloody Wankers].

So mine was replaced twice, and every single one of them had some different issues, besides condensation, gear or speed info going stupid, hi beam icon won't work, same with one of indicators, starting issues and so on. So 3 out of 3 was faulty.

Dash is basically rubbish, condensation under touch screen, some random faults etc, at this point I'm waiting months to get another replacement or my money back but BW stop responding to emails so... who knows, i would not do any shopping there unless you like to be scamed. Cheers.

Hi, Just want to let you guys know that I'm still waiting for replacement, and BW stopped answering my emails [from all know to me email accounts they got]. Does anyone have similar problem?

Engine was never over filled. I'm still waiting for powdercoating on covers so when i get everything back I'll get some extra oil, mix it with flush liquid, drain, check and refill with clear one again. Thanks for info/tips guys. I dont have alot experience with engines.

I did valve check twice in last 3 years and it was always clean, zero goop anywhere. Any idea how to clean engine without taking it apart? :>

Coolant level did not dropped at all, i do mostly short trips up to 40 minutes, it's my daily commuter, also i ride it hard, did valves check 6 months ago and everything was fine, got bike for 3 years now, never had issue with it before. I did not check pump seal yet.

Hi, So i had to do oil change and in the same time I want to do recoating on engine covers, but when i took them apart I did notice something is very wrong: I'm not he specialist but it looks like water in the oil for me, and burned cams from friction. How to proced from there? Check if the...

I was running catalytic converter with streight short pipe, just for weight/sound, much better then stock. I'm going to do dyno at some point, we have one garage here in uk that apparently can remap stock ECU on 701's. To be fair even if power gain is marginal [if any] i would still go for...

So this happen in the morning: I have send that video to BW and their response was: 'Can you please disconnect. Wait a minute then reconnect And let us know' So i gues i have to do that every time something like this happen :) ...also they did not answer to my questions about ongoing issues...

Yes, so if you want to keep clean look, without drilling holes, then: 1. Drill out rivets around carbon cap. 2. Remove carbon cap. 3. Unbolt and remove db killer [bolt is under the cap, hence all this drilling-in-the-carboin ideas] 4. Put carbon cap back on 5. Replace rivets [gas tight stainless...

Easy to do, just DON'T DRILL holes in carbon cap! Get some stainless gas tight rivets, drill old out from the cap, remove db killer, put cab back with new rivets and job done, nice and smooth with no holes/rubber sticking out/stickers to hide holes etc. :)

I really like your bike mate! Good job with that muffler, what's your next step? ceramic coating on header? :)

First bike: fueling dongle, removing two restrictor plates from center of muffler [2x 50% flow mesh] and db killer, repacking with much tighter fit for metal wool and metal mesh, plus fresh self expansion glass fibre filler blanket all arround, much deeper sound - lower temp on headers. Will do...

LeoVince underbody, repacked and modified, with 690 [old one] header, works great for 3 years now, no issues at all, and i know one more guy who did same thing:

I did send it with harness, i could fix it myself, this is basically what i do for living, repairing heavy duty electronics with touch screen, right now i'm waiting for BW response for my emails, they like to wait a bit before answering my questions usually :) They should use liquid bonding...

Hi there, So i did preorder, had some serious issues, send it back, wait a lot, and finally just got it again, after week od testing: 1. They did not repair issues with condensation, same thing happen again, and it's really bad, basically it's design flaw, there is huge gap between lcd and...
