Thank you so much for these tutorial videos. You’ve really helped with my own 890r questions and installs. Please don’t stop sharing. Again thank you. By the way your black body panels looks so good against the orange!

I've been looking at the 890r for a few months now and your videos have been great. Now they've released the new colour I'm looking at finally pulling the trigger on one. Thanks for the content.

You won’t be disappointed. It’s a bike that makes me smile every time I ride the thing . Just dial in the suspension for the roads you ride on . Enjoy 😊

Great vlog! will advice my daughter to purchase this tech pack asap! Nice helmet you're wearing btw.

Thanks , helmet is HJC . After riding the RS1200 speed triple yesterday, the little ktm still is the bike for me. New BMW r1250GS on order, due June. Best of both worlds . Ride safe 👍

Thanks for the tutorial. Always enjoy your videos. Even my local KTM dealership in the States couldn't tell me anything about LC after I purchased the tech pack. Off the subject, what is the add'l screen on your handlebars? Looks too big to be a phone.
@gsd32i2 жыл бұрын
Thanks it is a garmin zumo xt gps, for nav, music and telephone . I swap it from the KTM to my Africa twin . I have got the KTM module, ridiculous that you can’t phone out on that ….only receive calls . They market the bike as a bit of a loony tune machine admins then block you from making phone calls 🙈don’t waste your money 💰

Thanks! Looks like a great navi. May have to save my pennies for one. This is my 1st KTM & my only gripe is that EACH built-in feature costs me $340 to unlock...track pack, heated grips, cruise control, and quick shifter. Guess I'm supposed to be thankful they don't charge me extra for brakes and handlebars. Lol

Curious how are you liking the mirrors? I have massive shoulders and the OEM ones are completely useless for me. Just trying to justify 300$ for the set

Did you let the clutch flip or did you "slowly" release it?

Definitely didn’t let it flip , kind of quick but not just letting it fly ! Gotta trust the electronics 🤞

Only issue was a defective battery before I collected it from The showroom. New one installed before I took the bike , all good. Chain tension seems to cause issues . I run mine as per the owners manual , dealers tend to do them up too tight . Quick shifter is not the best on the business but is ok . No other issues , bike is crazy light n fast 👍

KTM ripping you off mate I was looking at the 790 duke I was told I track packs included Quick shifter launch control cornering traction, control, and ABS Quick shifter up and down launch control So why the hell are they charging you for that? When your bike cost more that font makes no sense To be fair price you pay you shouldn’t have to pay for Add on
@gsd32i Жыл бұрын
It's because it's KTM. The new bikes I think they give you a teaser of all the electronic stuff that you could pay more for and then after you've wheeled it out of the showroom , brand new, it deactivates things you haven't paid for after a certain mileage and then if you want them unlocked you have to go to your dealer with wads of cash to unlock them . Bit of a rip off.
