    Rear Brake losing prime

    It seems after sitting a little bit that my rear brake on my Street RC390 loses pressure. I have bled it a couple of times before trackdays or so when I noticed it lost pressure. All I have done to it was change to EBC pads and change the fluid in it. No air bubbles when I changed fluid or...

    Hello all, I'm doing the 2nd oil change myself using Motul Synthetic 15w-40 and K&N oil filter. Questions: ► Im currently at 5500 miles. I'm guessing an oil change interval got skipped being that this is my 2nd oil change (1st @ 600 mi.) ► How often to replace the screens and O-rings...

    Exhaust

    Besides the Akra what are pipes people are running? I see the ones that run our the belly pan outlet hole but what a chore when you want to change oil.

    Mineral Oil for early first oil change during break in?

    Hey just got my bike here in the states used from an older guy who bought it new but neck issues made it uncomfortable for him to ride. He put 239 miles on the bike, did nothing to it. I just rode it home from his place and put another 100 miles on it... so we are at the 339 mile mark and i...

    Oil filter cover screws, or when "snug" is still too much

    I'm a big believer in torque wrenches. I have three, all of which I trust the calibration on...except maybe the one that goes down to inch pounds (or low Nm). When I was learning to turn my own wrenches, I learned (by breaking things) to turn wrenches left handed to keep from over-tightening...

    First Oil Change

    is a "Forked" style upholstery tool required to pop plastic rivets on radiator guard, or do you simply pop center of rivet to release? It sucks upper has to come off to change oil!

    Change your oil--EARLY

    Okay, maybe that's not definitive enough: For the love of all that's Holy, CHANGE YOUR OIL! Okay, let me regroup a minute, and explain: I'm right particular about how I break in my bikes. Piddling along at 6K RPM (thank goodness KTM gives us 7K...) makes a perfectly good bike pretty boring...
