      Hi Jordan, Physically measuring it is irrelevant to an extent as what can you compare it to? The turning is perfect, and stability is improved. There is no front wheel wobble at slow or high speed like there is with the 19" front wheel, and the agility is improved but not dramatic. So, in every aspect, it's improved ?

    Why make the 1290 into a race bike though? I love racing, love race bikes... But this isn't that. Is the allure because its 1.3l and the temptation is just there? I'm genuinely curious. I own the 2022 version of this bike (S model). But what the fuck is the point of making this a race bike as opposed to just buying or modding a smaller bike? This is just a case of doing it because you can... I've got my sights set on the 1390. Just don't understand this...

    • @Lighthouse_Rides
      @Lighthouse_Rides 6 місяців тому

      Hi bud, thanks for the comment/questions. As I say in the video, it's definitely not for everyone, but being 6ft 8in and 113kg, there aren't many bikes that suit me as well as this. I have the superduke too, but this still is a lot of fun to ride and very well suited to my style. The adventure s in standard form is a waste of its potential. The 1390 will see an SMT model release, which tells you everything about the market for something like this.

    • @Lighthouse_Rides
      @Lighthouse_Rides 6 місяців тому

      Hi, thanks for your comment. I have looked into it and spoken with someone who has done it, but it involves 3d printing a bracket to hold the ecu that is stored in the tail fender between the indicators and registration plate that requires relocating to under the seat. Then you need to make good of the rear piece as the underside is all one piece. To me it's not worth the effort at the moment but I agree.

    Apart from the tank leaning on the radiator, the damage to it can also come from the side fairings. There's a possible fix mentioned in this video: ua-cam.com/video/9TPW9NLVg28/v-deo.html&pp=gAQBiAQB Basically what he does: from the bolt that connects the fairing to the radiator, removed the "washer" which is part of the bolt. This to ensure that the fairing is bolted loosely to the radiator and can vibrate by itself and not induce these vibrations to the radiator. I've done this myself over the winter, no leaking radiator yet (but the weather was shit so I haven't ridden since ;-P)

    Thanks for the video. Great little build. As I said in the last video, I'm suprised that such a radical decrease in rake is still stable, but you seem happy with it? Only comment; a one-piece seat from the Adventure R would complete the look, in my opinion 😁

    • @Lighthouse_Rides
      @Lighthouse_Rides 7 місяців тому

      The rake isn't as dramatic of a change as you would think. It now just corners faster but is very stable. I get no high-speed wobble like people experience with the standard setup. (I believe a big factor of this is due to the angle back from 19" wheel) Regarding the seat, I actually have one in the garage. I will do a video with both for you to see 🤙🏼I need to do this for a seat height video I have planned.

    Dumb question, but is there a reason/advantage to doing something like this vs. getting the SDGT?

    • @movem1
      @movem1 7 місяців тому

      @zakw3637 I can try to explain with experience, the SDGT is short and stubby like a Ducati Monster and SuperDuke. It easily lifts the front wheel under acceleration. Super fun if you want this but in my opinion rider should be careful at lean to not unload the front. The longer adventure wheelbase is more stable, can still lift the front wheel if the rider tries, and the seating geometry is more comfortable too. The downside to these adv's is that 19 inch front wheel is slower to change direction. Its noticeable if you ride such bikes back to back.

    • @zakw3637
      @zakw3637 7 місяців тому

      @@movem1 Right on, thanks for the reply. I'm torn between the sportiness of the SDGT and the comfort/stability of the SAS. Might just come down to the single-sided swing-arm, but would be nice to have the option of going off-road if I decide to at some point.

    • @djauofd
      @djauofd 5 місяців тому

      I did this to my 2020 SAS as soon as I got it. I did a lot of the same things , for tires I used Metzler Sportec M9RR's . A std 120/70 R17 with a 180/55 R17 rear. I took of hand quards and used bar end mirrors, Denali D4's, Then for the engine Rottweiler stage 5 intake, Arrow racing header, Austin Racing 250 mm V3, I also did a Dabrabbit vinyls wrap kit. My front rotors are Galfer Wave rotors. Lastly I replaced the stock damper with a Hyperpro RSC damper . I really do like the short Adv R screen smoked. For me, I am 270 lbs, so I upgraded the mono shock spring rate which made a huge difference in handling. Almost forgot, one last thing I replaced the Adventure footpegs with Puig 40mm offsets and Puig racing foot pegs. This place the pegs approximately 1" high and😂 1" back. This changed the ergo geometry just enough to put you a little more aggressive over the bike. Awesome build though. There are rumors KTM may actually make a 1390 SMT . good thing back in 2020 I did not wait. It is a kick ass machine.

      I will actually make a video on this topic as it is a great question. The handling is incredible, the best I have experienced on a big bike. The change in wheel size impacts the geometry in a positive way as it puts the bike more on its nose creating a very easy and accurate turn in. As standard the bike is made to sit back for comfort with pillion and luggage. Some people lower the front on the triple clamps with standard wheel as a way of improving this without a wheel swap.

      Racers run crash rails on track bikes. The Tuono actually has a great r&g set that's a crash rail with two mount points and you can mount a mushroom on top of that for street riding. It's basically flush with the fairing and the point is to allow the bike to slide but not damage the frame.
