Alright mate, those new bars look nice and as you said they feel comfortable so it's a win situation all-round, look good ,feel good 👍 ,really enjoyed the video mate.

[@markknott]

Fantastic videos, I have never owned a KTM but do have the Triple 1200RS. Im pleased to say I have never had any of the issues you encountered with the Triumph, but I guess thats just down to luck. Keep up the videos as it nice to hear a genuine rider. Stay safe

Bluetooth module, not digging the ape hangers and you need some coolant in that header tank, saw you the other day going passed Hartford Hall👍

Great information Sergeant. I had heat grips installed during my 600 mile inspection. You’ll love them. Say have had any problems with your shifter? Mine occasionally won’t shift higher that 1st to N. Have to shift it back down to first then back up to get it going. Both with clutch and/or quick shifter it does it.

[@sergeantsodom6969]

Thanks mate, not had that issue yet touch wood. Get in contact with your dealer sounds like the sensor is faulty (?)

[@superrobbie27]

nice shed for the bike. I'm looking at something like that too!

[@monjue4459]

Love your videos thanks. Question!.. are you thinking about shorty levers soon? if so what brand?

[@sergeantsodom6969]

Hey there, thanks for watching. Shorty levers aren't on the wish list as of yet, too expensive!

[@monjue4459]

@@sergeantsodom6969 fair enough!... but they look coool!

[@RevsIT]

Just go to a local garage and have them run a tap through those bolt holes then fit new bolts.

[@sergeantsodom6969]

Easy enough fix if you have the tools, however not a problem a cunsumer/customer should have to deal with on a brand new bike

[@scottsspeedtriplechannel]

I hope you like those bars. Please let us know what that box with the button is when you find out. I'm curious now.

[@sergeantsodom6969]

Thanks mate, it turns out its the connectivitydevice i.e. bluetooth

[@scottsspeedtriplechannel]

@@sergeantsodom6969 Does it turn off connectivity, or are you supposed to press it to connect?

[@massimilianociurlino2941]

Non ho capito a cosa ti serve l'aver sostituito il manubrio. Cosa c'è di diverso con quello originale?

[@ivan23172]

I also have the super duke r evo 2022 ,, I had many problems ,,, this is the third defect found in just 4000 km ,,,, how did you return the motorcycle to the ktm??? what did you have to do?? ? I too am afraid of other defects ....

[@alexandruguia1268]

Hello, thank you for your video, it was useful to me. I would like to know where did you buy your central tank cover? thank you

[@sergeantsodom6969]

Thanks for the comment ans glad you enjoyed it! You can find them on Motografix on eBay

[@TheSuperpod]

I have 2020 Gen3 SDR. First year model. I don’t see heated grips in the menu. Is this something a dealer can activate ?

[@sergeantsodom6969]

Yes, you have to pay for it (ridiculous!)

[@TheSuperpod]

@@sergeantsodom6969 did it today. Set me back 45 bucks Lol

[@sergeantsodom6969]

@TheSuperpod Pfft, they should do this shit for free. So silly

What lining have you put in your shed? And has it helped with condensation?

[@sergeantsodom6969]

Just some simple double sided insulation off amazon if I remember rightly

[@chrisjackson277]

@@sergeantsodom6969 has it helped with condensation? My shed is quite bad for condensation that gets all over my bikes 😑

if you can also the model number pro taper evo..because i can't find it..thanks

[@mrmojosrisen7514]

Sorry but the bars look naff (and you know I'm right) and I grew out of having stickers on me bike to let everyone know I was using shell oil or a K&N air filter! Luckily enough I don't feel uncomfortable with original bars but I have been looking for something lower just to make the bike even more aggressive looking especially since I've just fitted Eric's 20mm+ superlink kit from America by far the best mod you can do to the duke, no more bike trying to run wide or straighten it self up espesially if you have changed the gearing and lost a bit of ride hight 16/40 I have run both my gen2 and 3. Sorry to be such a wanker but I the hate the but if more comfortable then understandable.

[@sergeantsodom6969]

You're more than welcome to have your own opinion mate, Theres no judgement here unless its bullying, welcome along!

[@SCBiker58]

Great video and thanks. I have a 2015 bought new. Love my 1290 but at 65 and arthritis in my elbows the stock bars cause pain. I have a 2018 HD Fatboy and do not get the pain when riding same amount of time. It must be the wrist angle. The bars you just installed look flatter and wider and may be what I need. Where did you get them and do you still like them

[@sergeantsodom6969]

I dont have this bike anymore, however the likely reason is overall body position. this is a very sporty bike in comparison to the fatboy. Lower bars wont help you here, as it will increase the lean angle of your body/hip/knee. you'll need talller bars/bar risers and possibly lower rearsets to help you out there.

[@stephenwilkins376]

How's the new seat? Is it any better

[@sergeantsodom6969]

Not as drastic a difference as people have made out, but is seeming to be a little comfier. Maybe a 10% difference to me.

[@ivan23172]

please give me the exact model of the handlebar....thanks

[@sergeantsodom6969]

They are called the pro Taper evo SX race, I mentioned this at the beginning of the video. Cheers!

[@ivan23172]

I asked you, why there are so many pro Taper evo SX race models ,,,, it has an identification number???thanks

[@ivan23172]
