Yea thanks Hunter, i was wondering about this too and debating getting the bubble screen w cutout. its only $68 on ebay so I am going to order it rt now.
ok reenmachine i had the issue and my dealer went to bat for me w ktm.
checking the valves added at least 3 hours to the service. it was the first one of these bikes his shop had done so he said i didnt have to do it but he would if it was his bike.
i agreed.
after it cost me $371 for my first...
Yea Tora, they only charged me for 4 hours, and they called and asked me about the valves. said it didnt have to be done but being a new bike they suggested it, and i agreed.
As a follow up I wanna say That Evan at Solid Performance here in PA has contacted me after and went to bat for me w KTM...
my brake lever didnt really have much wiggle, the clutch had a bit so i put a washer on the underside and sured it up. try a washer or 2 if you need it, put a little grease on em.
yea i was looking at them and it def seems like they would at best be at the same as the stock rearsets which would pretty much defeat the purpose. they def arent further back
my dealer approved of me switching to engine ice at the first service, he just asked why i wanted to switch. he def didnt say anything about the stock stuff being better.
my temp gauge is still in the same place but the fan tends to come on a little less, at least it seems like it to me.
also...
First service is at 630 miles and the dealership uses the 15w 50 semi synth.
i did an oil change prior to that at about 300 miles to clean out the engine debris (see the change oil early thread)
I used another mineral oil for that change as it was still in break in period.
yea mine was there as well, i just added some distilled water. at first service i had the system flushed and had them add engine ice instead of that green sludge
