Order the grips online aomc.mx? part # 21002021000

Nice

That a guess @Lozion, or did you try that?

WD40 typically doesn’t work when grips are glued…

A set of new grips goes by part # 21002021000

The throttle grip is easy, it comes off with the throttle tube, and you reuse it on the new bars.

The left side may be tougher, not sure if it’s glued on. Prying a thin long screwdriver under the grip often helps to release the cement if they used it. After that use compressed air.

good luck, keep us posted

@js71, I saw a video from some guy installing the spring a while ago, and the trick was to insert the bolt a few threads, and only then pull the spring around the lever with the roller.

This is a 701 thread… different bike altogether.

As far as I know there has never been a recall of the clutch slave, they just replace or fix them when they fail (and they do fail!).

The Nuda was a different beast altogether. I feel the during the short time when Husky was owned by BMW they had much more autonomy than under KTM’s wings now…

I have no problems at all with the rear brake. It isn’t exactly powerful, but at least it doesn’t feel wooden like on some other bikes. Besides, how hard do people use the rear brake anyway?

It’s like that on many bikes, Not just KTM. I guess DOT regulations…

“Pilen should have been based on a husky engine instead of a KTM in my opinion.”

You sure about that? Which Husky engine, the 630, pre-BMW era? You’d never get the same 75HP as with the 690 engine I’m afraid… afaik CCM now uses the old Husky engine and they claim 62hp…

“Also, why make more Husky’s when they are basically all KTM.”

Because KTM’s are ugly?

Oh! I really like those wheel!

Assuming the rear is a 5.5″ with a 180 tire, which tire (brand, type, size) did you install, and how much room is there between the tire and the chain?

ok, one 160/60 is wider than the other. I noticed the chain was rubbing the rear tire when I still had the S21’s. Yes the wheel was properly aligned, chain a little loose. The bike was only between 1000-2000 mile old when I made this pic, so can’t have been poor chain wear or anything.

switched to Contis and it never came back.

SOme great mods sir!

The fuel dongle doesn’t give extra power, but removes some of the jerkyness in slow traffic.

@zachs you can on a Vit 701 with a KTM ABS dongle.

It does have one. The easiest way to confirm it simply by trying. Keep the throttle stead and shift.

That’s the slave cylinder.

Insist on an extra oil change for safety’s sake. We don’t know what DOT fluid in engine oil does.
