    990R Map

    I have read so many forums and threads where the guys get the KTM dealership to put either the 990R map on there bikes or the Akrapovic map on.  Do the dealerships put the Akra map on when they put the Akra pipes on or do you have to specifically ask for it?

    990 ADV suspension upgrade

    At 115 kg I am a little bit heavier than the average 990 rider and find that the suspension bottoms out very easily when I take even the smallest of jumps and it also dives quite badly under hard braking.  Is there anything one can do and at what cost.
