Replacement of Headlight mount by Ktm/Husqvarna in India

Ktm/Husqvarna is calling Husqvarna customers in India, for a replacement of Headlight mount free of cost. This is connected to an issue with wear out of cables due to the original mount/bracket. Got to know today at my Svartpilen 250s 3rd service.

Do you know where exactly the wear was happening?

Not sure, but few guys reported throttle cable wear due to obstruction created by the mount. Didn't experience any for my bike though. Mine was the first lot after the launch of the Svartpilen 250 in India in March 2020.

Interesting. I wonder if the 250 mount is different from the mount on the 401... maybe I'll go look at the parts diagrams to try and figure it out.
