    Had a big accident yesterday...

    The same thing happened to me, an oncoming taxi lost its right front wheel just few metres in front of me.  I just managed to dodge the wheel and saw the taxi going all over the place with sparks flying.  No one was injured. I'm glad you're ok.

    950 vs. 990 vs. 990S vs. 990R vs. 950SE

    That's the small plastic cover I was talking about on the 990SM, so it should be exactly at the same spot on the 990 Adventure.

    Sorry I mentioned a small plastic cover, but that's on my 990SM.  The plug on the 990 Adv is behind that large plastic cover:

    950 vs. 990 vs. 990S vs. 990R vs. 950SE

    It's a 10 minutes job on a 990.  But it's not necessary to do it if you have the Akrapovic mapping loaded already, as I believe the mapping disable the restriction (to confirm). There is a small black plastic cover on the left that hides a white three pin plug with yellow/brown and Grey wires...

    950 vs. 990 vs. 990S vs. 990R vs. 950SE

    Thanks for clarification.  However, I'm left slightly confused now...  Why would they design a valve to patch something rather than fixing it at the source?  :scratch:

    You're most welcome.  I asked Pro Action here in Jo'burg about the removal of the upper butterflies.  They didn't seem to approve.  I left mine in place, but many guys who's done it report an improved throttle response since they supposed to override your right hand.

    950 vs. 990 vs. 990S vs. 990R vs. 950SE

    The new 990 Adventures and 990 Adventures R come with the 16t front sprocket pre-installed.  KTM does listen to their customers. The 990 Adv R has more peps than all the other Adventures.  However, since EFI's mappings can be changed, I guess it won't be impossible to squeeze a few extra hp out...

    950 vs. 990 vs. 990S vs. 990R vs. 950SE

    The SAS (Secondary Air System) helps bringing the catalytic converters to operating temperature.  As you know, the catcons only convert the bad stuff at operating temperature. The SAS allows fresh air into the intake path; leaning the mixture, causing a uneven throttle response and backfires...

    To all the guys complaining about the EFI, which is understandable, have you done the following mods? - 16 t front sprocket - upper butterflies removal (I've never tried that one) - EPC disabled - SAS removal Personally the EFI's response never really bothered me. I agree that the old carb...
