Whoo!! Congratulations on the new bike man!!! She is a pretty one!! That Dam was a good spot for a photo shoot! People ask why we want bikes with all of that power... well when they realize how confidence inspiring and overall safer when trying to pass another vehicle, I think they understand! 😁. Good video Fasty!!

Congratulations on the bike. Immense engine, and one of the most bonkers big touring machines out there. Cheers and take care. 👍

[@FastyRides]

Thank you , it is a bonkers bike for sure. cant wait to get it tamed and take it on the continent. Fasty Rides

[@steve60855]

I’ve just chopped mine in,I found the tyres were very good and had a lot of confidence in ‘em,the slack in throttle easy enough to sort out 10mins with the RACETORX spacers,and yes the engine is ballisticy powerful I just didn’t want to lose my licence (need it for work drive for a living)shame to let it go but had a lot of fun with it and surprise’s a lot of rev jockeys on their head down arse up sports bikes🤣enjoy pal.

[@FastyRides]

Thanks buddy, I do know what you mean, the speed just creeps on, I'm going to have to be careful. Thanks again Fasty Rides

[@MotovlogUK]

Absolute mega bike buddy. Top vid as well mate 🤘

Thanks Simon, you too. Fasty Rides

[@Carlnewman68]

Bloody epic eh , also what amazing roads , where are they

[@FastyRides]

Hey Carl, Roads are local to Ripponden, just up the hill on Saddleworth moor. Fasty Rdies

[@Carlnewman68]

@@FastyRides thank you so much

[@benkelly2190]

Top choice mate. I’ve had mine 8 months! Best decision ever!

[@FastyRides]

Hi Ben, it is a great bike, I just need to get confident in the tyres and how to wheelie the bugger. hahahaha Cheers Fasty

[@benkelly2190]

@@FastyRides hey mate. I would say ditch the tyres asap! They are ok in the warm and dry. Unfortunately, they are rubbish in the damp and cold! I also have a handle bar wobble at 30-ish! I put Michelin road 6’s on! Cured the wobble and transformed the handling. Stay safe pal.

[@FastyRides]

@@benkelly2190 yer I think I need new rubber. I can't get fully confident in the mitus ones.

[@stevenwescott1422]

I have the R version. I installed the Rottweiler upgrades the low rpm smoothness was really good. It’s fun full time.

[@52yamahar1]

What upgrade was it you installed? Did u get it remapped after installing them or did it run fine?

[@stevenwescott1422]

@@52yamahar1 I had them Install a map for the kit I added. Intake, exhaust, sas delete. Go to Rottweiler performance and add to cart. Fits good, good instructions, quality

[@cartzwheels]

She is a beautiful bike mate. That back drop on the walk around. 😍😍. Really looking forward to your adventures this year. Also can’t wait to see all the mods you are going to do 💪🏻

[@FastyRides]

Hi fella Thank you. Ive got a long list of mods but money is going to be the only bottle neck with that. More to follow, Fasty Rides

[@52yamahar1]

Hows the standard screen for wind blast?

[@FastyRides]

well Im 5 foot 9 and have the seat on the lowest setting and the wind still hits me on the top of the helmet. So i bought a cheap amazon wind deflector which cracked both sides of the screen. So now I have a MRA with built in wind deflector, the difference is night and day. well worht the money, plus it makes the bike look better in my opinion. Fasty-Rides

[@alanoswin8827]

Great choice pal, and might I say beautiful countryside any chance you could let us know where you filmed this and any road names or directions I could use to follow, keep them coming 😅

[@FastyRides]

Hi Alan, all the roads in this video are on Saddleworth more near Rishworth, Halifax and Oldham. Here is some numbers - A672, A58, Pike end road, Baitings gate road & B6114, Fasty Rides

[@FastyRides]

Thanks MrB, yer Ive done a few hundred miles on it now and im starting to gell with it a little bit now. Its a totally different animal to the XR but I can see Im going to get on with this bike. Fasty-Rides

[@TheBroadyBikers]

Beast of a bike matey. I almost traded my 1290gt in for one but ended gerrin mi gsa for a steal. Happy riding pal 👍👍

[@FastyRides]

Thank you. the GT was the other option I had but went with this. Fasty Rides

[@moistdecoy]

Gooo on pal, what a spunky looking bum tickler! Ride safe bud, see thee soon 👍

[@FastyRides]

Thanks fella. It got spanked on the way home from Monyash on Sunday. Fasty Rdies

[@danman5857]

Does the KTM SAS 1290 require premium fuel? minimum octane 91 ? My guess is yes, please someone confirm. Thanks.

[@FastyRides]

I would always go with premium fuel in my bike if its an option. Fasty Rides

[@lifeontwowheels1206]

Just get the throttle re-calibrated Takes about five minutes, if that Sometimes thay do it free if you get it serviced Or have a look on KZbin M8 Sounds good already Just take your time And get used to it before you push the last thing you want is 2 mess up I like that bike I just don’t like the two big bits of plastic that stick out Where are you riding? Looks really nice Enjoy your new bike

[@FastyRides]

oh thats something new, i didnt know you could remap the throttle. I will have a look online. Yer its the tires, I have a real thing with anything other than Avon Spirit ST's. but to be fair these seem not too bad on the road. Saddleworth moor inbetween Oldham and Halifax. Its a great little route I do quite often. Thanks again for the info mate. Fasty Rides

[@lifeontwowheels1206]

@@FastyRides yeah my friend had his done But he does not have the adventure But I guess it’s pretty much the same No worries pal

[@FastyRides]

@@lifeontwowheels1206 there isn't much on the net about it, only a video on how to calibrate a 690. I might call in the ktm garage this weekend and ask them to do it.

[@lifeontwowheels1206]

@@FastyRides I don’t really know i’m just going on what my friend said about his KTM He told them about it when he had his service He said they re-calibrated it took about five minutes he said it feels like 80% better If it was me, I would ask ktm abat it they will be able to tell you properly hopefully they sort it for you

[@paultatford2120]

So much better with the tech pack got mine as an ex demo came with the tech pack

[@FastyRides]

I agree, I'm really glad the tech pack came with the bike. Fasty Rides

[@Peakwanderer]

What a beast, just 26 times the cubic capacity of my little Dax :) It must be a lot wider than it looks though with you struggling to get past those poor cyclists riding in the gutter on those empty roads.

[@FastyRides]

hahahaha, we should do a ride out. you on your Dax. I think I might get a 125 to mess about on at some point. Fasty Rides

[@philipmillen4271]

I solld mine, I now don't have a sore bum

[@FastyRides]

I haven't taken her on a long ride yet, but I do have an air cushion if it's needed.
