Hey man, I just got a Vitpilen 401 a couple weeks ago too!
I’m from North Vancouver.
Nice mirrors, I need to swap out the stock ones soon.
Have you had any issues with stalling? My engine has cut out a few times now with the clutch level pulled. Seems to happen when I accelerate hard and then brake quickly (usually while shifting from 3rd to 2nd).
I have another friend in vancouver who has a vit as well, we should link up before the season ends. instagram handle is @itsnichoo dm me for details! I have had stalling before but not enough to deem it an issue at this time. I think the clutch grab point is a lot further out than my drz400sm so it takes some getting used to, was driving around last night and i played with the leaver adjuster. leave it in 4 i didnt like any other setting.
I am local to you as well and purchased one Vitpilen and one Svartpilen. The one bike does have that stalling issue and mine has issue other guy I spoke with had with his fuel gauge not working correct. From first day it was full tank and it said I was half full. It’s all over the map and other forums I have found others with the same issue. I will get it fixed under warranty. If you have not already done some searching your can upgrade your handlebars to the ABM kit out of Europe for 300 Euros. A mod I am thinking of doing instead of just buying the parts for the Svartpilen. As I am guessing you got the same promo deal of $3499 CAD (US $2550 aprx) plus Freight and PDI/ fee’s yada yada. Out the door aprx $5150 CAD. Great deal at half price 🙂 for a 2019.. Any other issues you have had so far other than mirrors that go right in the trash once home.
would you Vancouver guys be interested in meeting up to ride? I can start a group on Facebook if so. I haven’t seen any other pilens in Vancouver just one guy i know in Vancouver has one
I had the stalling issue for first time this week at 910km
Clutch slowly lost grip till engine stalled. Came back to normal after a few tries.
Heya you guys @Navjit @itsnicho @Curse @RealisticBullFrog from Vancouver. Would any of you be interested in trading their white plastics for black Svart ones? Either way, we should organize a VanCity Vitpilen/Svartpilen ride this summer, eh! Let me know. Let’s get that VancouverPilen group going: VanCity401 or Vanpilens?
@SHREDWORX yeah man im down to do a vancouver meet up, i think VancouverPilens is good. My instagram handle is @itsnichoo get at me there if you need me i dont use this only when im on the computer, very down to do a meet up with the rest of vancouver guy.
Hey any active Vancouver members on this forum? I just got my VIT 401 and would love to connect with local riders!
Hey @slictor, yeah there is a facebook page for vancouver riders calles Svartpilen/Vitpilen 401/701 Riding Club Vancouver Canada
If you join that its a bit more interactive rather than this forum.
