A Vitpilen 701 is easy, you just need dongle part 60312953500 (see startpost)

yeah, I didnt think of that.

Why not stuff an Apple AirTag somewhere?

You’re a real party pooper right? Going to corporate, getting legal involved…

Serious, it’s highly likely just a little air.

Sounds like needs a little more bleeding. Probably at the nipple on the master cylinder.

No, not really unless you are super handy and willing to spend hundreds (thousands?) of dollars. Not saying it’s impossible, but yeah, it requires a lot of specialist knowledge and money.

Btw, why would you want cornering ABS in the first place? It only adds so much extra safety, you can’t beat physics….

Did you delete the air/oil separator from the crankcase ventilation system as well by any chance?

There is no need to buy a different front wheel actually. The stock wheel can be converted to dual rotor.

Any good quality fork oil in 15W should work I guess. Castrol Fork Oil (15wt) for instance, or Repsol Moto Horquillas Fork Oil (10W20).

Here‘s a good site to compare fork oils.

That’s a good question! Before you do so, you may want to do a small experiment, which won’t cost you mush.

Little explanation, I ride canyons. Sometimes bumpy, and very twisty. I would call my pace mildly fast)

From day 1 I found my suspension shite, front and rear. My rear shock was too harsh and had way too much rebound damping. On top of…[Read more]

I dm’d them for a price on the headlight cowl, painted in either silver (same as the Vit), or semi gloss black.

Apples to melons. In no way do the V701 and Sportster S compare.

Literally the only thing they have in common is that they stayed very close to their respective prototype.

Yup, easy to shave off a few kg:

Remove tail tidy
LiFePo battery
Remove the carbon canister/SAS
Remove pillion pegs
some small bits and bobs here and there

and you should be closer to 150kg (that’s what I weighed mine at a while ago).

No, that letter says the license plate bracket’s teeth can misalign with the teeth in the swingarm, resulting in a situation where you think the rear wheel nut is properly tightened while in fact it isn’t.

As I removed that hideous opossum scraper, that can’t be the case on my bike…

Interestingly, I find my brakes perfect since I changed the pads to Brembo SC pads.

very nice!

It should turn off after a few seconds and tell you to release the button. I did hear stories this only works after the second try though…

Realizing this was posted over two years ago?

Your bike didn’t come with a manual?

(they’re damping adjusters: left fork leg: compression, right fork leg: rebound)

Oil color/grimeyness means nothing.
