    Smallest Fender eliminator?

    Sorry for late reply............. I have not done it on this bike, but I have done it on other bikes and there are videos of people doing it with the RC8's, not sure how close these are to those. If it was me since there is nothing out there yet I would fabricate or figure out a way to use the...

    The "what else have you/do you ride" thread!

    Very nice and yeah too bad Ducati never truly made the Supermono. That was one I did lust over and made a point to buy every magazine I could find with it in it that year :)

    Smallest Fender eliminator?

    Right and if you are any good with electronics use your taillight and some relays and resistors and turn your tail light into integrated signals, appears there is a left and right row/bank of LEDs in the tailight. Or take apart the stock blinkers and integrate them into the tail light assembly...

    Backup camera

    Or maybe create or fabricate or use an existing GPS or phone car mount to make something that mounts on the top triple in the middle over the head stem/yolk. Or tray that it mounts to strapped down like this........... I realize that is not a flat surface, but if fabricated and mounted...

    Backup camera

    A small magnetic tank bag or screen bag/cover would have done the trick if the tank was not a plastic cover. Or maybe using the screws for the filler cap to create some kind of bracket you could slide in a mount with the screen attached to? Slide it in, or snap it in, and then slide it off or...

    First service Issues 6+ hours and $370 wtf???

    Yeah I wonder if KTM is doing like VW/Audi used to do in my wrench turning days...is there a book time to claim engine removal? So the 1.5 and then factor in the time it takes to remove engine, or each individual component removed and add it up? I know we use to have to do this with VW warranty...

    Road America CCS Rookies Cup GTL Battle of 2 RC390 Cup Bikes

    Nice! looked like a pretty good run. Looks like some pretty good smooth lines What camera did you use? The audio seems to be extremely compressed.....has popping sounds and some other distortion that sounds like a restaurant dish room going on in the background.

    The "what else have you/do you ride" thread!

    In no particular order.... 1980 Yamaha MX100 1990 Kawasaki KX125 1963 Benelli 250 -still own in pieces, restore that halted due to finding parts and some decisions about increasing compression with BSA piston, inverted forks, etc. 1975 Suzuki GT 550 1982 Yamaha Seca 750 1986 V65 Magna 1987...

    First service Issues 6+ hours and $370 wtf???

    That stinks about the cost. 1.5 for the service.....does that include the valves? cause from what I have seen and discussions here, people are talking about just short of removing the engine you can do it, even though KTM calls for removing the engine. Cause if not, what is that 2 hours? Does it...

    RC8 parts on RC390?

    Ahh very nice, and yeah that makes sense. Good luck with the deal! Makes me wish I still had close friends or family in the Navy.....buy one cheap and have them bring it back on a ship for me ;) Yeah I have a couple of R6 shocks laying around, looks like hopefully that might be a good cheap...

    RC8 parts on RC390?

    Very nice, where do you live? New at dealership here is $5200 or so. Not that I am going to swoop in or anything, you got dibs on whatever you found, where ever you are anyway....but that would be ideal price used. I have been looking, but expect not to find a good used one for at least a...

    Race / Track Report

    Yeah maybe some more pictures of the bike showing the rest of the bits on it. I was curious about some clip ons, could find the size, but that upper triple has the bars mounted to it, so removing them kind of leaves the mounting hole "wings" And with that being said, more responsive and flick...

    Exhaust development work

    Your failure is a win for others. I mean its all the same life, bikes, etc. learn from your mistakes or failures. Or for that matter not repeating that area of study or testing, since it did not work the first time. Again everyone is very appreciate of your time, effort and money spent thus far...

    Site bug thread
