🙏🏼 thanks man! Glad to hear it helped. Let me know what you’ve decided though, curious!

Dank voor de reactie! Wat voor een resultaat heeft het flashen van de ECU?

@@MyLifeV1bes motor loopt veel soepel en vloeiender. De dip/onrustiger lopen bij 4.500 tot 5.500 toeren is weg. Hij pakt nog eerder vermogen op en is minder abrupt bij gas los. Echt veel fijner geworden. Plus 5 pk erbij maar dat is bijzaak wat mij betreft.

Ik kan je eventueel een foto van de grafiek mailen met de resultaten.

@@willem-jangeesink2083 graag! Ga eens informeren.

🙏🏼 thanks for commenting. I’m not sure what error that is. I’m not a KTM specialist or technician… I would advise to possibly contact a dealership with this question?

@@MyLifeV1bes thanks for help ❤👍

@@MyLifeV1bes thanks for help ❤👍

🙏🏼 thanks for commenting, I agree!

Same here. GT was too hot most of the time. Just wish the SAS had taller gearing like the GT

@@kj385 I intend to change my rear sprocket when it's shot, and yeah the GT did run hot, don't have the same issue with the SAS

⁠I looked into changing sprockets. But didn’t find anyone making a bigger front 16 tooth or smaller rear 42 sprockets for the SAS

@@kj385 that's because most people go the other way, as the bike is geared tall from the factory, meaning smaller rears and larger fronts are less commonly sold, many people put 45T rear sprockets on, which makes 6th more usable, and many claim to be better offroad also, have you tried looking at DID or supersprox?

🙏🏼 thanks for commenting. Regarding the throttle response, I’ve never rode a 890 Duke R so I’m not sure how that feels. What I do know is that you have multiple settings in terms of throttle responses both on the GT and SAS. In comfort it reacts it bit slower and more smooth while sport it is really snappy. So both bikes are configurable on that topic. Hope that answers your question :).

The GT has smooth and responsive throttle. Almost equal to the 890. The SAS throttle is less responsive. But some of that is due to the heavier crank and different cams. So I ride the SAS in sport mode. But the GT and 890 I ride in street mode.

🙏🏼 thanks for commenting! Yes I did. Plus some additional options were fitted to my SAS during that same time so easy 1+1.

🙏🏼 for commenting IMO as well!

Thanks man, appreciate the comment. I love(d) my BMW…. But I wanted something quicker and leaner… for that my eye fell on this KTM. The sheer power of this KTM engine is unbelievable and it also moves great! Sure possibly the BMW felt more sturdy but in terms of built quality and possibilities KTM is up there.

Thanks 🙏🏼 wordt gewaardeerd!

Regelgeving technisch klopt dat inderdaad. Echter door hoe de uitlaat er bij het uiteinde uitziet valt het niet op dat de killers eruit zijn plus het geluidsniveau is niet heel erg hard, sportief en wat meer bass. Ik ben er naar Duitsland mee geweest een aantal weken terug en geen problemen mee gehad, maar het is en blijft natuurlijk een risico.

Enjoy your Wings exhaust!

Yes you’re right! One scratch or even no scratch might mean you need to buy a slip-on! 🤣

Dank voor je reactie. Ik ga er eens op letten. Heb het niet opgemerkt nog! ATIR is wel een optie bij KTM maar weet niet of dat standaard op mijn type/ jaar zit.

Dankjewel! Honda AT is ook een gave bike! Jij ook veel rijplezier!

Thanks for your reaction. I’m still testing a lot in what setup/settings would be best but given the helmet and integration setup of the DJI is not that easy it is a bit of a challenge sometimes. But I’m testing something new now. Hopefully the next video will be better.

Thanks for commenting. Jeezz, I understand… not nice if something like that happens. Hope you’re having a great time in your bike now.

@@MyLifeV1bes Keep the battery topped up on a trickle charge at all times to avoid some of the electronic woes and keep an eye out for water leaks, my bike also had a serious wobble due to poorly adjusted headstock bearings that I fixed myself, however I could never cure the bike pulling to the left , I still have my trusty Honda XRV 750RD07 Africa that ive owned for 14years and now a new Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 that I find is all the power I need in the real world, and basic tech that I can fix, good luck and enjoy your new machine

Great video 12 minutes BMW, 5 minutes KTM

Yes, tomorrow they’ll be putting them on!

@@MyLifeV1bes 19" front or 21"?

@@tigerick7291 I believe in case of the SAS spoke wheel option it is the 19”.

How about tires? 50/50 road dirt, or what do you plan on for them?

@@stevek4449 for now they’ll switch the (crap) stock Mitas tires. Since they are new I don’t want them going to waste. After that I’m thinking indeed 50/50 road dirt. Something that alligns with it’s dual purpose.

Thanks! Loving it until now.

Thanks for reacting and the compliment. Nice! I had one as well! It’s also on TH-cam. Check it out if you want to: th-cam.com/video/12ibrHyIWFw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=6oTTSXpxvoSWEBKp

I seriously thought about it but after looking at it I just don’t really like the looks of it and would need to spend a lot more money to make it to my liking. It rides great though. Let’s see what the GSA is going to be like!

Is it the one that is mounted behind the screen? Do you like that one?

@@MyLifeV1bes yes fixes underneath the tft and is solid 👌

Thanks for watching and commenting! Me two, it’s a beast. What options do you have on it?

Thanks! 🙏🏼 the stock exhaust is more rectangular while this exhaust is more oval. So might be that in diameter this exhaust is a bit wider… however if you have the factory luggage racks it’ll fit I think. Also shows in the video on YT: th-cam.com/video/3pz7G-CcemE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=DaZSRM0u3rfcFblT

@@MyLifeV1bes Thanks! I have the Outback Motortek racks. Look like the touratech ones in the video 🤔

@@anderspetersson5279 yes they are… in that case I’m not really sure if it’ll fit…

Thanks for watching and commenting. Loved the first tour and many more to come!

Thanks for watching and reacting! Arrow Sonora right? Also great exhaust. I must say on long rides this one is quite comfortable (even with baffles out). Regarding suspension It varies, normally just automatic mode. But im still learning the basics of the elaborate options of all the menus. I tried street setup most of the time when riding and find it mostly suitable for anything. More sporty roads (needs good asphalt though in sport). Rally mode still discovering…. You?

@@MyLifeV1bes As you say street mode unless it's very smooth, but we don't have smooth roads here in England 😄. Try manual preload 70%, street mode, anti dive on the forks and sport mode engine. I find auto to be always a bit too soft and 70% puts a bit more weight over the front too. Give it a go, it's taken me a long time to work everything out. FYI I'm 100 kg geared up. Enjoy.👍

@@tigerick7291 thanks for the tip will do!

@@tigerick7291 That´s funny, I am running those exact settings right now :) I am 95kg without gear, and 70% preload feels just about right. Anti-dive always on, it´s great. Street mode for the suspension and sport for engine seems suitable for most of the time. Bought mine new 2months ago, so I have some more experimenting to do.

@@anderspetersson5279 If I'm on the motorway for a distance I put it in low preload, comfort and ACC on. It's so smooth and stable, you must try it.👍

Thanks for sharing! Welcome back to riding! Enjoy many save rides!

Thanks for the reassurance! I also have the 48 month warranty and a good dealership.

@@MyLifeV1bes btw KTM is offering additional warranty on 2024 models free of charge , check with ur dealer again

@@mastodonrage666 thanks for the FYI will do!

@@MyLifeV1bes The 2024 KTM LC8 non-“R” range (KTM 1290 SUPER DUKE GT , KTM 1290 SUPER ADVENTURE S) extends from 24 months to a maximum of 3 years from the initial take-into-use date. The LC8 “R” model range (KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE R EVO, KTM 1290 SUPER ADVENTURE R) can extend from 12 months to another 12 months of coverage, for a maximum of 2 years from the initial take-into-use date.

KTM has achieved more than 320 world championship titles. KTM is Europe's largest motorcycle manufacturer. KTM has already achieved 18 Rally Dakar victories. KTM is the most successful manufacturer in Moto3 racing with over 60 victories. They can only be bad 😏

Haha we’ll see what the future holds. Thanks for watching and commenting! 🙏🏼

Nice! Congrats, also changing the mufflers? Tomorrow a video is going live, if you’re interested. Some of the mods coming soon crashbar, spoke wheels, Lonerider top case. Enjoy many fast and great safe miles!

⁠@@MyLifeV1bes Cool, I have ordered the Lone Rider Overlander 48l. Also intend to order the Motobags eventually. Thinking about also buying the Wings exhaust eventually. Might have to modify the Outback Motortek luggage racks for it to fit though, so a little bit on the fence about that one at the moment 🤔 The luggage racks go very close to the original exhaust on the back and on the side. The Wings exhaust looks like it might be a bit thicker than OEM. If you don’t mind maybe you can compare/measure the width/diameter (looking from behind the bike) of the Wings exhaust? If it is more than about a centimeter wider then the racks will require modification or removal 🤨

I’ve not yet encountered them. Hopefully also won’t encounter them but we’ll see. 1000km service coming up.

🙏🏼 !

Thanks for commenting 🙏🏼. We’ll see what the future holds ^^

🙏🏼!

Thanks Blade for your comment! Couldn’t agree more, would want them back if I could. What modifications have you made so far besides the exhaust. I’ll change to the spoke rims and add a crashbar too, might also swap the blinkers, the stock ones are too big (my opinion). Nice muffler! I changed mine to a SC-project, video will hit the channel this week!

Thanks for your comment Gizmo, yes the more basic bikes are amazing. In the R1200GSA video I also talk about my earlier bike, a 2005 CBR600RR. No aids just machine loved it! With regards to dealership support I agree, always helps to have a good liason there. Thanks and I wish the same to you! Keep on riding and smiling!

Hi Scott, thanks for your compliment. Does a lot when starting a channel 😄! The SAS is awesome, I just came back from a 4 day tour and it was amazing. I haven’t had any troubles so far (which is understandable since its new). The Mitas tires are not good indeed, but I haven’t had any wobbles at higher speeds. My thought is that since this model (2024) is the last edition they filtered out a lot of the diseases mentioned on earlier examples. Although I would recommend good dealer support in combination with a good dealer. Regarding the 1390, no opinion yet but it would be a beast no doubt. I did have a look at the Super Duke GT, a great thing but the adventure model was more to my liking. Although if it was up to me I would have all kinds haha. Just test drive and see what fits you best. Next video coming soon is the install of the SC-project exhaust.

In this video there is a clear explanation to some of the wobble: th-cam.com/video/SVc1pl0ohzU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=WEPomDZ_ziqpAXGr

600km , no wobble , no chain slap , no issues yet

Haha🤣

😂

Soon the POV motorcycle video will come, I hope in the following days!
