The KTM gets new auxiliary light. Some minor fab, blast and powder coat
New lights for the KTM.
These would have been a slightly smaller/better fit, but are out of stock, and supplier has not provided a new manufacturing date:
www.led-colight.com/products/colight%C2%AE-3inch-white-yellow-hi-low-beam-motorcycle-auxilary-fog-lights
So I went with these: www.led-colight.com/products/4-inch-db-r-series-yellow-white-hi-lo-beam-round-driving-light
Insanely bright, and seem to have a good cut off.

    I used the Triumph axle (similar to Ducati) and have a 17x6 magnesium 5 spoke on mine. Just needs a 3-3.25mm spacer and new wheel alignment pins to be 3mm longer at the back of the pins. At least that's what it needed to make it centered. the 3-3.25mm spacer offsets the wheel same as the Honda wheel you have sits on the swingarm now. I used a 2nd gen Honda SSSA from a VFR 750. Not sure which one you're using. I did my mod @ 2007.

    If you decide to change up the rear wheel. You can take a Triumph 955i hub assembly and put it in the honda. Triumph copied Honda's design. The bearing are different but that's about it. I did a Muzzy Raptor Replica on my 97 ZX7R. Only modification to the Triumph assembly is that you use the Honda brake holder, just shave off about 1mm so it fits in the Triumph assembly. If interested I contact me. I no longer ride but I still have the bike in the garage.

    I traded in my 09 Concours 14 for the 2024 N1k and the only things that Im not keen on is the loss of a center stand and maintaining the chain, other that that the Ninja fits my needs way better than the C14. The performance is very similar, the ride quality is much better, the handling is way better and its looks better. Mine is 100% stock right now other than a Puig windscreen (much better than stock). Im thinking about a Yoshimura slip on, K & N air filter and an ECU flash...thats it! The N1k is an awesome bike. Love it! I really like losing about 180lbs!

      @scottmatzeder9162 I do not miss my 08 concours. It was a fast boat. Like you said, way too heavy. imo the Ninja is the perfect sport bike. I have a full black widow exhaust on mine. Really wakes the bike up (the full system will likely cost same as the yosh slip on) It's very well fuelled right out of the box. If you keep your filter stock ( I don't recommend K And N) there's zero need for a flash. 10k km so far with me using it and I love it. BTW.. the black widow exhaust is 1st rate.

Here in Wyoming our freeways are 80mph and she just roars down the freeway, so fun. I got a Yoshimura exhaust and whew does she sound bad ass, as well as not burning myself on the stock exhaust.

He talked about some of the issues and I thought, wow, that must be bad if he is warning me (he's a great dude, I feel bad when I buy a bike at a different dealership). I'll have to check that video out, I'd seen it on some forums and went uhhhh what? My tires are the Anakee Wilds (1090 and 701) they're amazing, but you can't swap direction. HUGE improvement over the TKC's which I have no clue what that tire is good at? Highway? Nope. Gravel? Nope. Sand?! Nope. Windy paved roads? Nope!! Great stuff man, thanks for taking the time to make the content, if you're ever in Wyoming shoot me a message. The South Dakota BDR X is a hoot, lots of amazing food and places to stay on the ride (hotels I mean).

      @gilvietor1918 Thanks for the offer. Have been through years ago. Offer is here if you come out west to Canada. decent dealers are still out there Glad he scared you off. Nothing wrong with the 1090. No plans to get rich or retire off YT. Just doing it as I feel and to help out.

    Very good, don't see how these would be any different on gravel than any road focused tire, the sipes are just wide enough for water removal. That's poor mileage to square off so quick, were you riding 2 u? that's a heavy-ish bike? thanks

    • @otmuppet
      @otmuppet 7 місяців тому

      It is a street tire no question, just felt better shoulder season (prob. In my head). I ride one up, but quick and tidy. Curb is allegedly 513lb. Not crazy heavy. Tire is still going strong. Just punting it around town. Will get it down to cords and swap the set.

      Forgot to mention. It's not squaring off. Wearing very even, just center thread on rear is disappearing quick.

    That is sick and exactly what I’m looking for for my 1190. Now, if only someone will find a way to put the 890 right hand switch gear and throttle on so we can run the modern heated grips. The ones without the wire hanging down. I tried the 890 throttle on my 1190 and there’s a micro voltage difference which puts the ECU into limp mode. Poooo.

      It's a fantastic tire...but...it's wearing very quickly. I'm at the wear bars on the rear at 6500km. I'll post up a quick update vid shortly. I'll be surprised if I get 8k km out of the rear. Front is wearing very well. No cupping/feathering to speak of

      Is the rear wearing evenly? Apparently it's an absolute must that the mutants are always running the correct psi to avoid wear issues.
