Waiting to see if they are upgraded/new colours etc at this years Eicma, also interesting to see how this bike is after it has done some serious mileage. Perfect work as always Dr. Vstrom.
Dear Doc, congratulations to your upgrade! Looks sharp! I’ve noticed that you don’t use loctite on your screws. Is that because screws have pre-applied adhesive? Also, I’ve heard an opinion that applying grease on screws changes the momentum necessary to tighten them. Do you think it’s valid? Happy to have your opinion on it. Cheers from northern Portugal!
I use the copper grease to protect the threads. The torque values, I do take it into consideration. The installation is great, no noise or vibration issues. Thanks :)
You are slowly but surely making it look super cool,almost tempted to get another.
Thanks 😊
Excellent video< congratulations
