I put pretty much the same levers on mine. I’ve got a 2022 SDR Evo. Love it. Going to fit a clear clutch plate cove r tomorrow. Looking for a decent exhaust next. Happy and safe riding 👍🏻
Thanks. I’m more than happy with my Austin racing exhaust. So take a look at those or also look at SC Project. They have some pretty good looking and sounding end cans.
@@Robbiemoto I watched your exhaust fit video, loved the pizza and wine combo. 🤣 Did you have to remap with that can or does it adjust on its own? Sounded awesome, think I’ll go for the same or SC project.
That means a lot pal, thanks. I’m glad I’ve managed to help people work on their own bikes. I don’t get bothered by the warriors any more. It comes with the joys of running a UA-cam channel. 😄. As said ignore or block.
Just found your channel , and have enjoyed watching a couple of your vids :) I've treated myself you a sd1290r this summer ( it's a 2019 gen 2 ) and love it , came from a z1000sx and wow the difference in the power and of course the v twin 😄👌🏻 You've now got another sub mate . 👍🏻
Nice, like those. Check your cruise control next time you're out, think the clutch side micro switch is linked to that too. Love the rubber topped working table! Where is that from please? Cheers.
@@Robbiemoto ah thats great to hear, love mine too....torn on wether to get a tuono or 701 supermoto next year to partner (and play 2nd fiddle to) the 1290. Also still plan on getting the full akra for it soon
It's crossed my mind on whether to get a little supermoto but for now the SDR will suffice :-). The full akra looks and sounds the dogs goolies but it's one hell of a price and plus you're gonna have to mess around getting the indicators to work after it's been flashed.
Ugh! Every video of these lever replacements leave out how to get that cam out. Did you punch out the bushing? I've not gone crazy on it but it didn't want to come out with a good amount of force. Other than leaving out the one never before revealed step, good video. Thanks
Hi, thanks. Yes you’re correct. I used a small 8/10mm socket, can’t recall which one now and hammered out the bush. I did mention it in the video on what I did but didn’t film it. My bad on being a complete amateur with filming and spannering at the time. Once I decided on how I was going to to push the bush out I forgot to record it.
Do that little fly screen work? Hopefully someone will make one that suits the bike. The blinkers that came with the SDR are they LED? Here in Canada we have the antiquated
I think about getting some Raximo levers too for my 2021 SDR, and i see you have to KTM Caps for the fluid reservoirs from KTM. How does the orange match? are they way off?
Hi Thanks for your comment. I didn’t actually buy them new. I bought them second hand from another youtuber based in Germany. I did try looking myself for UK suppliers but couldn’t find any. I contacted the guy who said he had a spare pair for sale so bought them off him.
I have powerparts levers that I want to install, and mine seem to miss some of the parts you have on your levers. That part you had to pull out; is it possible to retrieve the whole part (rocker coupling I believe it's called), not just the small pin, without damaging it?
Are you referring to the brake lever ? If so I believe so. To remove the pin as you call it I had the use a socket and press the bush out so the whole rocker piece comes away from the main lever. I used a socket just small enough in diameter and a hammer to push it out. Not the best way but it worked well for me. Hopefully I've explained this well enough.
@@Robbiemoto yes, I was about to do some smashing myself with a socket and a rubber hammer. I stopped midway though because it felt like I was going to break it. I figure I might as well buy a new rocker coupling and all the necessary parts so that I can keep the original levers intact. I like your description of your “how to videos”. You describe yourself as someone who definitely is not a mechanic. I am just like you but 10 times worse. I often find myself doing way too complicated things that leads me to breaking things.
@@simplyriding1199 Thank you. I am fairly confident in doing some basic mechanical things but obviously not in a professional way. There are far too many people on here who like to criticise and pick fault with things. As long as you get the end result you are wanting then who cares how you got there. I only knew how to change the levers by looking at someone else on here do it. It's all about trial and error and a learning process on the way. Have fun.
@@yoarmie Yes I believe it’s correct. I have toyed with the idea of swapping them for some others but it’s one of those things that’s not a huge issue when riding and you get used to it.
Ignore the haters, lose the mirrors next and get the KTM bar end ones...look great once on, Shaun {the likeable rider} has fitted the german version i think looks the same anyhow.
Cheers. I think some people just like to troll regardless. I’m really not a fan of Barend mirrors to be honest. I follow Shaun and have seen what he’s done to his SDR. I like some of the mods but not so keen on others.
It’s made by S P connect.sp-connect.com/?gclid=CjwKCAiAo5qABhBdEiwAOtGmbt-_T6sJcecTU601MXR2ZlA8zffdZ8ASVpjI_1AfEcl8vP_R9XJZIRoCSecQAvD_BwE I’m very happy with it. Nice slim and compact.
Hi Rob I Need to buy a new brake lever I’ve scratched mine would you consider selling yours that you took off. Much appreciated if you could? Cheers Neil
No problem thought you would probably want to keep the lever.I’ll have to purchase the brake lever from kTM back order as usual and around £60 just for the loose lever😢
what about the mcs master cylinder adjustment on brembo brakes?.....standard lever has an adjustment from 19-21 for power ratio to front brakes......i dont think these have same adjustment for brembo mcs msater cylinder
The only adjustment on the levers that I know of are for your hand width. These are just levers only the rest of the brake system on the bars is standard.
@@Robbiemoto yeah the brembo mcs master Cylinder has different adjustment for pressure of the brake itself along with adjustment of the lever.....I dont want to lose that adjustment with aftermarket

Haha yeah I’m a classy guy lol. Mind you that was like 3 1/2 years ago. No remap needed for just an end can. Bolt on and ride away.
They look great..the beast is looking 🔥..
Block and ignore the keyboard warriors . I done some mods to my SDR you help loads . Big Thanks
That means a lot pal, thanks.

Thank you. Much appreciated. We've pretty much followed the same path. 😄
@@Robbiemoto the fun path 😂😁
102 subs now
Thanks for the video, just waiting on my levers to arrive.
Thank you. And my pleasure. I hope the video helped.
Just got my Gen 3. Haven’t done the levers yet but I’ve put that dash flyscreen on 😎🍻
I’ve changed it again since then as I spilt brake fluid on it and it left a little dark stain. I’ve now fitted the Evotech one.
Nice, like those. Check your cruise control next time you're out, think the clutch side micro switch is linked to that too.
Love the rubber topped working table! Where is that from please? Cheers.
Thanks, will do. The table is just a rattan style garden furniture table. Had it for years.
His was just the video I was looking for. It looked fairly easy even for someone like me.
It’s is quite straight forward. I’m glad it’s helped.
No locktite needed? Nice video. Thnx
@@renetand Thank you.
Brilliant Robbie!! Keep it up! How you enjoying the big duke??
Thanks. I'm loving it. A little different from my Z1000. Ridiculous amounts of power. 😀

The fly screen doesn't do much to be honest apart from makes it look a little better at the front. Yes I believe the indicators here are LED.
I think about getting some Raximo levers too for my 2021 SDR, and i see you have to KTM Caps for the fluid reservoirs from KTM. How does the orange match? are they way off?
Hi. I think the brake fluid caps match quite well. I’m not disappointed with them.
Levers have different fittings because the brakes are Brembo and the clutch is Magura
Thanks. I didn’t give it much though to different manufacturers.
Hi Robbie just wondering if uk site for levers all sites I go on take me to site in Europe. Can you link to site you used. Great vid
Hi
Thanks for your comment.
I didn’t actually buy them new. I bought them second hand from another youtuber based in Germany. I did try looking myself for UK suppliers but couldn’t find any. I contacted the guy who said he had a spare pair for sale so bought them off him.
@@Robbiemoto Ah shame thanks anyway 👍

@@Robbiemoto yes I'm all for the trial and error. It's just a shame when things break and cost a fortune
@@simplyriding1199 Haha Well yes there is that :-)
is it normal to them levers move like that? mine move a lot…
Do you mean where the folding mechanism is. As I find there’s a little to much play myself.
@@Robbiemoto Yes. They move a lil too much I think too... But if it is how it fits, i'm cool with it, at the beginning I was a lil scared
@@yoarmie Yes I believe it’s correct. I have toyed with the idea of swapping them for some others but it’s one of those things that’s not a huge issue when riding and you get used to it.
