    Issues: absolutely needs fuel remapping to avoid constant horrible hunting unless you are riding at 6th gear at 50kms all the time. Resonance sounds as if several metal parts nearly touching somewhere close to headlamp sometimes (depends on RPM). Very hard to find neutral - I usually find it down from 2nd easier than up from 1st. Although when going from 1st gear to 2nd better not to use quickshifter cause it might get you into neutral sometimes... Same with downshifting - best to manually rev match - much safer and smoother :)) Gets super hot - not really an issue - it is a liter after all but something to keep in mind. Lots of vibes causing hands to go numb after a longer ride. Very inconsistent auto switch off of a turn signal - safer not to use it at all. Had some minor issues opening and closing pillion seat. Heated grips could have more modes cause sometimes when it gets cold it becomes too hot even with the weakest heating and heating button is in such a place that it is not convenient to turn it on or off when driving :)) Without tuning very annoying cold start at high RPM. Don't even think to start driving until RPM drops cause it may cause issues with auto hill brake and it can suddenly send you at speed :D Navigation is nice but not very reliable. Quite low to ground, be careful when going to parkings which are a little lifted up - i scraped my bottom a bit once :D Could have a keyless tank cover - it is the only thing that actually requires a key :D
    Positives: plenty of power, subjectively good looks, nice display, beautiful sound, good handling, amazing dynamic damping and electronic suspension. Cool integration with an app - love all the sensors it can collect information from - RPM, speed, lean angle, etc. For tuning has a connector in a convenient place. Convenient even for tall riders (6'4 in my case). Very beautiful display. Absolute beast at high RPMs, convenient cruise control for longer trips at safer speeds :) Amazing ability to tune electronics easily: abs sensitivity, wheely control, stability control, etc. Cool 1 button switch to turn most of the electronics off quickly.

      Sounds like you rode an absolute turkey. Someone must have smashed your bike up before you got it as I’ve had both the S and the M 1KR and none of these are an issue.
      Unlucky.

    I can fully recommend the full KEIS heated jacket, trousers and gloves as one hell of a great combo for winter commuting.

    Oh it's your visor steaming up! I wondered what in this and your other videos you kept moving your hand over the lens.
    S1000R is definitely a sweet bike. New headlight looks fantastic, too.

      It’s a couple of things to be honest, always checking the camera isn’t moving as I have filmed the sky before, making sure the lens is clean and also anytime I fiddle with visor - GoPros don’t make it easy for us 😅

    Truth is that KTM’s aren’t reliable or well built combine that with rubbish after sales and that’s why they are going bust. KTM is not even in same league as BMW.

      And would you rather see KTM go bust? We as bikers need to stop this twisting the knife in even further into one of the biggest manufacturers of motorcycles. I have owned five KTMs since 2006 and rarely had a problem with any of them. The present decline of motorcycle dealers across the country will have a massive impact on all of us, and by bad mouthing KTM won't help matters at all. As a matter of interest have you ever owned a KTM?

      ​@@paulfoot1042I think KTM are reaping what they've sewn,I don't like to see them in so much trouble but hopefully they'll learn from their mistakes if they survive.
      Straight up bending people over for re-enabling rider aids, reliability issues and bad customer service are all things they need to massively improve on.

    Are you right in the head… TFT screen has a boarder ? ……. and hot chocolate, are you a child ? ….Cup wet tea and a woodbine sort that sniffle out btw 👍

      @jimmyrottencauli ovaltine not hot chocolate - i love it 😅. Especially when I feel like ass. The black boarder (border) around the screen is what I’m talking about.

      BTW you two; it’s border and not boarder. 🤦🏻
      And this time of year, it’s Horlicks and not Ovaltine 😉
