    990 underseat cubby... dusted !

    Import taxes are always a matter and responsability of the buyer. In our country that is 22% of the price on the items costing more than 22€ (~ R350) so that would be R77. Think about it like so: You cubby is a very affordable and by the looks of it, very high quality kit. If you can find a...

    990 underseat cubby... dusted !

    Well, that potential depends on the shipping cost. And you have to think about importing tax also :( these two thing are usually a deal killer for ordering parts from outside EU :(

    Dismantling my 990 S. Now Assembling......

    I looked at unifilter before I decided to go the DIY way and copy the Meoni/Pyndon setup. Mainly because the uni-prefilter has a smaller surface than a air filter on a KTM EXC bike, so you need to clean it out more often and cleaning/oiling those foam filters is a genuine PITA. Here is my take...

    Dismantling my 990 S. Now Assembling......

    Since we are on topic of air-filters... Has anyone of you thought of running a pre-filter, same as a 2002 Meoni Dakar replica bike? That black pod in front of the airbox. I am guessing you guys have a lot of sand and dust in your riding areas and a pre-filter setup would be beneficial to a...

    KTM 990 Tyres - TKC80 / Mitas / Pirelli / Metzeler

    What front tyres do you guys prefer for 70/30 off-road/on-road? I am looking at: - MT21 -D606 -D908RR Last resort is a Mitas C-17D  or TKC80. For the rear I am set on Mitas E-09D, untill I get a narrower rim than I will switch to D908RR. on the rear.

    690R Tyre Selection?

    Have a look at a Mitas C-17 Dakar front and C-02 Stoneking rear tyres, I really like them in all kinds of terrain. Though I can't say how they handle in desert sand as I don't have any to try them out :D

    640 What gearing?

    My friend with 620Adv and me with 640 Enduro are using 15/44 for mixed riding, from road to technical, it is a good compromise, but don't expect high top speed.

    Rear pads for the KLE 500

    Front and rear pads are not the same! Below you can see the picture of available brake pads for KLE form EBC UK. As far as I know there are no sintered rear pads available for KLE. But if you are using you KLE off-road the sintered rear would be to aggressive and would lock the wheel up instantly.
