Soek die een vir my 1190

Totally agree though, they do scratch the tank, didn’t think you would mind. I did, which is why I used it once on my SE. The 1190R had tank decals so couldn’t scratch it.

But yeah, quick release is awesome, agreed!

Kry hom pompie.

Terwyl jy nou besig is, vervang sommer daai cheap oxford heated grips met die real deal. Daai oxford heated grips fok lelik rond op mens en daai Mission Control adapter op die handlebar lyk sommer kak

die powerparts outjie is baie meer betroubaar en geintegreer, vat wel 20% langer om te stel op n 1 sekonde beweging

As ek so n premium fiets sien met fokken oxford heated grips wil ek in my mondjie opgooi!

I actually have a plan with those oxfords. Seems like they can be connected straight on the bikes standard connections. Removing the oxford control. Still have to verify this though

Lyk my jy hou van rondfok

Jy gaan jou day-job moet bedank en voltyds onderneem om aan jou bike te werk!

should work perfectly without the oxford controller - the KTM grips are about 10 Ohm per grip, i.e. 5 Ohm when both connected in parallel

Renrew I see nothing wrong with saving R2k and in exchange for doing an hours work, if the Oxfords work then they work, the bike has a purpose and its not to shine behind some lights in a glass case.

armpump I don't know how you do it, if you just searched for that link or have a huge database somewhere. But thanks. Seems very straightforward. I just need some time to work on my bike now.

I am having screws removed out of my leg tomorrow. I broke it a year ago. So here is to hoping to be booked off for a few days but to still be physically capable to work on the bike.

Hi molt3n

Good job, nou kan ek al jou issues gebruik om my vrou te ooreed dat ek maar nog paar R op my bike kan spandeer.

1 vraag: met al die issues wat jy op jou bike gehaat het na die diens by KTM, hoe weet jy jou valve clearances is gedoen en is dit reg gedoen? Gooi seker petrol op die vlamme.
En nou wil hulle hom vir jou verniet diens? Se hulle kan die diens los en liewers vir jou n stel tyres gee, hulle kan dit nie opneek nie.

Ek en Steenkamp dink dieselfde oor goed.

Ja stook maar die vuur. Eerste dag toe ek die bike drop toe wys die man my n 1190 in die hoek. In vir valve clearances 3000km na hulle dit gedoen het op diens, sy opmerking was dat dit baie maklik kan uit gaan, my gedagtes was- klink eerder of julle aangejaag het.

Hoeveel moeiliker kan dit wees as op my gewese Nissan 1400? Bring die ding dan doen ek dit gou vir jou

Jyt 11 dae laas iets aan jou bike gedoen? beteken dit nou dat al die issues uit gesort is en dan ons niks meer gaan kan lees oor jou 1190 Love/Hate relationship nie?

Of is jy net a lazy guy?

Daar sal altyd issues wees moenie daaroor worry nie. Ek sal issues kan skep op n 1400 corolla, en die 1190 het meer perde. (te lui om te check, maar dink hy het tot meer as n 2l! haha)

I have since tightened the head unit bolts. one was lose and another stripped so its only a temporary fix. I will look into it some other time when the unit goes loose again, strip and strengthen.
I also just got feedback from Bikegear regarding replacing the crashbar brackets. One option is having it flown in and the other is receiving it with their next shipment from Germany. That being end April 2018! I have requested the price for both options (why does one have to even ask for a price...)

Yesterday I started planning a day ride and shared it with a buddy. Upon his reply I only noticed it will be 1300km for the day. Damn. So I will have to make another plan. I want to ride the 2spoor on the Botswana border.

My rim have arrived at KTM, so next up on the tale of my bike is to remove front wheel and send to KTM. Cant wait to be back to tubeless.

Het jy dam nog die bike?

Weet jy was af vir n week na die been ding so jy moes iets aan die bike gedoen het?

Hy was te besig om goed pienk te verf

m0lt3n · « **Reply #298 on:** November 15, 2017, 08:24:06 am »

my vrou nie happy met haar mooi gerestoreerde pienk pik nie. ondankbaar as jy my vra.

Voorwiel gepos na KTM, volgende op die kaarte is daai fuel pre filter fit, en ek het n bad fuel dongle ook vir baie goeie prys gekry, moet hom ook fit. sien uit om settings te kan behou!

Guys, are there any youtube clips or tips somewhere on installing the rubber band in the rim for tubeless? I forgot to send the rubber gasket back with the rim and tps so they did not remind me or ask about it, and reckoned I went through all this trouble just so that I can stick to riding with tubes. Oh, and the tyre pressure sensor also did not come back.

I am furious, but mostly with myself....

And Philip who was buying scrambler panels with me, I think they got his order now wrong for the 3rd time
