G'Day Dam. Another Aussie enjoying your videos mate. I'm putting my deposit on my Gen 3 today! Can't wait to get her and start tarting her up! Thanks for the great work man!
Hey bro, amazing content and nice beast. Shoutout from Singapore! Btw, just asking does the black paintwork is prone to scratches and is more visible compared to the orange/blue variant since the tank is glossy compared to the matte blue finish?
Thanks 😊 I heard that the black paintwork was a bit easy to scratches, so I gave the bike a 2 stage paint protection so it wasnt so easy to scratches 😁
I got my SDR updated yesterday and downloaded the MyRide app. I agree its not that impressive, it works OK, but having to spend money on an app that should be free is a little tight by KTM. I also had an interesting time with the dealer yesterday, they attempted to install the Akrapovic map on my bike. After the install the bike would not start, the message was, 'please remove all LED lights'. It turns out that KTM have prevented the map from being used on road bikes, it's only for track use! Great video by the way :)
I just cancelled my order for the full system because of this. It says it on KTM's website, you just have to scroll to the very bottom to find it. I'll wait for someone to come up with a service that flashes your ECU without the signal issue. If you've already got the exhaust installed, you should go to KTMForums and the SDR section. Another helpful Euro rider found a work around. It requires you to splice in some wiring to a timed relay, but will fix the problem and allow the signals to stay connected while running the Akra tune.
I installed on my KTM 2020 1290 new akrapovic and it is simple and it is not. You need to do a lot of stuff first with replacing parts and putting dummy plugs but also your KTM dealer need to do mapping for you so bike can run properly. YOU NEED TO DISCONNECT SIGNAL LIGHTS SO THEY CAN START THE BIKE AND DO Mapping. Good luck but sounds amazing :)
@@l_speed8797 I did this to my bike and everything works perfect with the Akra map and full system. You just need to relay delay so you trick the ECU that the turn signals are off for about 3 to 5 seconds and then they come on.
Your dealer should have known about the full Akra system not being road legal and having to disconnect the indicators. I'v read of a work around to get it to work but I don't think it's a simple plug and play option.
I got my AR exhaust, clear clutch cover, all the other essentials and had the bike perfect. Went away for two weeks leaving the bike covered & locked in a residential underground car park and some scumbag stole it. Absolutely gutted.
Bro I am listening again your videos about Austin Racing d getting pissed again what answer they are giving to you. My Austin racing exhaust sitting in the back of my car and still they don’t have solution. I talked to them and argue end of JULY and they told me they will send me parts in week or two. Today is 18th August and still didn’t get any. 3500$ dollars sitting in my car and it is not working. Definitely bad reputation about what they did. But good luck friend
I'm also waiting on an Austin racing exhaust. I'n only waiting on the end can though not the full system. Concerning your comment about the my ride app, I agree with you and don't find it that good. Have you checked out Calimoto nav app calimoto.com/en this will navigate biking routes for you. It's mainly a subscription based app but there is a large part of it thats free, which is the bit I use. I don't subscribe to it. What job do you do that sends you away for that long if i may ask. I understand if you'd rather not say. Thanks and ride safe.
@@tadhgoshaughnessy6612 Sorry for the delay, I've only just noticed your comment. It's been 4 weeks now. The dealer ordered it for me when I got the bike. They keep telling the dealer it's on the way, It'll be here end of the week but twice it hasn't been. I understand the Covid thing has messed with a lot of companies but don't say the product is on its way when it clearly isn't. I'll post up on my channel when I get it.
Love your vids man. Have a gen3 myself and its just pure joy :D
Take care, looking forward to more videos!

Enjoy your time away working. Living in Brisbane, Australia I feel for you guys that can only ride certain times of the year.
Thanks :)
I'm a BrenTuning dealer, I can ship you a handheld tuner. Over the winter they are using my 2020 SDR to build the map for the 2020's.
That sounds awesome. Do you know when they are done with the map for the 2020? 😁
@@DamTheDane not yet, I still have to get my bike to him over the winter

Awe man that sucks bro and I'm sorry to hear about this.
Sorry to hear that mate, and hope your insurance covers it.
How many weeks ago you ordered exhaust.

This is exactly why I went with the Akrapovic exhaust system and Akra map. To many issues and things to do after spending $3500 dollars.
MRshowtime yup I agree with you!!!
