Hey folks- just an update to pin here. This was a month or so ago now, and it ended up having to go back to the dealership to get them to diagnose the issue and it was the standard servo cables- I've had it again since and just left it and things seem to be fine. Headstock bearings are still an issue- and last night the fuel pump went on me- find out about that one next month
Regarding the getting lost, this reminds me of an occasion where i had the same thing happen to me a while back. I went out to where i don't usually go and was trying to get home but kept going round in circles and obviously as you know with anxiety at high levels it makes for an incredibly stressful experience.
The exhaust valve by the muffler will throw an “MTC” error code. I disconnected mine and did the “dongle” plug and the code went away never to be seen again (at least for the last 2000 miles) This normally gets a mtc code upon start up when cold or you stalled it and fired it right back up and the exhaust valve hasn’t cycled completely yet.
Iv had my super duke r since April last year. Iv had nothing but problems. Iv had oil temp sensors fail Iv had indicators fill with condensation or stop working all together. On top of they none stop MTC and ECU failures. And KTM uk are not very helpful when you email them with these problems. I was considering changing for a speed triple but when I seen your vids that put me off that but I’m stuck with the duke for now. It’s a defo love hate relationship with the super duke
@@sergeantsodom6969 👍I got my Speed back on Saturday!! All the diesel is gone and so far it runs lovely….let’s see how long it lasts ! 👍 I’m definitely noticing though the bike really cramped and uncomfortable but it’s such a blast !! I was stuck on the M3 motorway so what did I expect haha 😆 it’s brutal on the motorways , the wind is savage!!
Fucking hell mate I don't believe your bad look, hopefully it's something simple that can be sorted easily, it's a lovely looking/sounding bike just hope it's going to be reliable for you, after all that shit you had with your speed I'm hoping it's not going to be the same with this one mate .cracking video although I was getting quite worried you was going to run out of fuel ⛽. Hope you get it sorted mate 👍
Sergeant you don't have much look with motorcycles do you run these motorcycles in or do you hammer from start because I did 600 miles in 3 days on my triumph 1200 rs with no problems what ever 👍🙅 so is it the rider who takes care
I run my bikes in usually sensibly, with the odd faster run to let things bed in. We all have our methods but nothing too excessive for the first 600 mile
This tiny arrow navigation on a 5 inch display in 2022 is pathetic, shame on you KTM. Give us a proper map like Ducati or Suzuki that is worth the money! Otherwise I stick with my sp connect and watch on google maps on my phone.
I'm aware of it, yet you say that as if that would have any bearing on my life with bikes having already known issues from the factory. As with a lot of these pseudoscientific headline-grabbers , it's usually a load of bollocks surrounding a grain of truth- as to make it more palpable and easier to sell their books and courses under the guise of science, fact and evidence. Cheers!
@@sergeantsodom6969 I've been riding since 1991. Hondas mostly. Anything can happen, the only question is how you react to it. You write your own headlines, don't you?
@@Amerigo73 Awesome, however that adds little to the conversation on modern bikes and their seeming unreliability - boasting doesn't change that- and I disagree, you're handed a bad stick sometimes in life, nothing can change or alter that though in reflection you can see the options clear as day. I prescribe to a more fatalistic approach to life, through my life experience. But that's what makes everyone different and all the better for it in my opinion 🤷♂️ I will however be the first to admit I don't react in the most positive light sometimes but few do when stuck in an unfamiliar place with a brand new vehicle throwing up random issues, we can all be easily flustered. I mean, if I weren't here documenting my rides, people would be none the wiser, nor care- I enjoy this as a hobby and will leave people free and open to their opinions and comments- but I too hold that same right, to some people's surprise 😁 It does however, make for entertaining content, or so I've been told 😅 Cheers!

That must've been so frustrating, hopefully they fix it in future models. Also, the bar end mirrors look real nice in that position in my opinion

Jas thé sale issue with mine. KTM replaced the valve at 1500 km. Now I’m at 6500 km and never happened again. Cheers! ✌️
My ktm 1290 bike MTC FAİLURE problems ! How did you fix the problem ? What did you do ?
Sergeant I did the same but when I came out I went left one way and nearly took a motorcycle out lol pain when a new place 😁
My sat navigation kept doing that think it's the place 😁
Did you buy this bike from same dealer as the speed? If so I think the issue is the person putting the bike together from the box
No it wasn't
Sergeant could you tell me y you have two types of fluid reservoir on front triple has front and rear ?
Hydraulic clutch and front brakes
@@sergeantsodom6969 cool how do you find it ? Sat nav os only as good as app and phone triumph one not bad
Sold my sdr loads of issues bought a speed triple had none
Mtc fault is only the exhaust valve, they play up when new so just get dealer to adjust it after you have put a few hundred miles on it,

Same got a speed now no issues at all
Hope its just a little blip mate I feel your pain I’ve been having the worst look lately 👍🏼
Hi, for the navigation, maybe it will work better if the phone isn't in a bag, to catch the satelittes...?
That's an idea
Cheers Charly, it wasn't in a bag
Works perfectly if it’s in a bag or in your pocket.
@@neilcivil9480 clearly 🤷♂️
Would you say worth trading speed 1200rs in for a 1290
I do prefer this* bike but both have their pros and cons, but this bikes suits me personally a lot more ☺️

Geez mate you're not having much luck. I hope things improve for you. 🤞
"Is this the start?" This hurts so much more after seeing your IG story :( Also, 1.63!? when the hell was this recorded!? haha
I am psychic 🥲

Cheers as always ste, my luck hey!
Sergeant I was the same hate them until I got to snake 🐍 pass 😂😂😂

Don’t think I’ll be buying the sat nav having watched this 🙈.
Could you have gotten some bad gas? Petrol I mean?
It was the servo cables out if sync apparently, looks like that'll be coming off soon
@@sergeantsodom6969 Were you born on Friday the thirteenth under a ladder?
@@scottsspeedtriplechannel Starting to think so!
Kin funny, MTC = What?
Disaster with bikes mate.

Don’t waste your time watching everything else
Thanks for the wonderful constructive feedback my friend, have a fantastic day.

hey. I am rly sry for you..but you should have kept your Triumph!
Considering the issues I had with that thing, I wish I had have bought a bus-pass
You seem to have trouble with every bike you ride. You might want to read about the law of attraction.
