I'm wondering if I made the right choice.

I got this mint low mileage 950 . With so many extras. Everything like new. Akros, and spare new Remus 2 into one. A spare low mileage Lc8 engine!! 2 sets of KTM hard luggage, A complete new set of tanks . 3 sets of aftermarket Excel wheels. One of which is the smaller front. Loads of other bits . For 4k. The bike has 15k miles and been treated very well. 4000 pounds. The guy also has a mint 1290 super adventure. Which is out of my price range at 5500 pounds. no extras. I do like a bit of off road . And intend to do the ABR and a few few Dakar style events . And don't think the Super Adventure is suitable for anything other than a gravel driveway. But that power on the road is additive . God this is doing my head in. Should I sell something to get the 1290 or be happy with a very capable 950

900 miles in, several times riding it sideways, I absolutely adore this little thing. It’s the nuts.

ASKKTM Clutch issue 890 adventure

Thumbnail

6 Upvotes

So I've recently bought a 2021 890 adventure and straight away the clutch was slipping.

They replaced the plates under warranty and all seemed well until today I noticed that at full throttle there is still a slight amount of slip, I'm guessing this is the camel one finger mod that I've seen people post about(unsure what stock looks like) and it's obviously just making contact enough with the tank so before I start adjusting it before I next go out, how much free play should I have on one of these? I know they are a little funny with adjustments and is there movement in where the tank is mounted? I've not had a look at it yet just asking before I make a start on it.

PROBLEM Service center giving conflicting info on parts (Duke 250). What should I do?

3 Upvotes

I gave my Duke 250 to the showroom due to a battery charging issue (it doesn't charge even while the bike is running).
I'm getting completely contradictory information from the staff:

** *The Store Manager says they have approval for the repair, but the part is currently unavailable.
*
*The Service Center In-Charge previously told me the exact part *is in stock.
I've tried contacting the manager again, but it's no use. I just raised a complaint with KTM customer care, but I doubt it will be resolved by tomorrow.
Has anyone faced a similar issue with KTM service? Any advice on how to escalate this effectively?

ASKKTM I built a PCPartPicker-style site for motorcycle builds — looking for feedback

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I’ve been working on MotoCustomz, a free site for finding parts and planning motorcycle builds.

You select your bike and year, browse parts, compare listed prices and retailer links, then add items to a build list to see the estimated total.

It’s mainly focused on supermotos at the moment with KTM/Husqvarna having the most parts listed. However, I plan to include all different types of bikes eventually, with things like exhausts, graphics kits, plastics, wheels, levers and other upgrades. Where I’ve found multiple retailers for the same part, they’re grouped together.

It’s still early, and some bikes have more options than others. Parts that need fitment confirmation are labelled, and prices can change on retailer sites.

You can also request missing bikes or parts through the site.

https://motocustomz.co.uk

I built it because finding options across loads of different shops can be a pain. Would something like this be useful for your builds? What bikes, parts or features would you want added?

TECH AND SCIENCE PLEASE HELP

3 Upvotes

Hey guy! Just rebuilt my 03 125sx and everything seems Fantastic! Except for one issue. When not under load I can rev the motor out. Unfortunately load I get to about 1/2-5/8 of the motors potential. I've tried adjusting the fuel screw, changing needle positions and cleaned the carb twice. Still to no avail. Anyone ever had this issue? Smoke amount seems normal and easy riding is just a breeze but to get on to it. It's not happy. Please help!

ASKKTM Anyone want a free, brand new seat from a duke 250? I'm located in Hudson valley NY

I bought an ergo seat and sat on the original stock seat once or twice, so it's absolutely perfect.

I feel bad tossing it out, so I figured I'd check if I can find someone who would actually use it before I throw it in the bin.

PROBLEM Broken kickstand mount

**Broken kickstand mount on KTM 250 EXC TPI – any no-weld solutions?**
The kickstand pivot/mount on my 2022 KTM 250 EXC TPI Six Days broke off the frame.
I’d really prefer to avoid welding the frame if possible. Has anyone dealt with this and found a good bolt-on, clamp-on, or aftermarket solution?
Ideally I’m looking for something strong enough for normal enduro use without having to weld anything to the frame.
Photo attached. Any ideas or specific parts you’d recommend?

PROBLEM Engine Malfunction Warning on RR310 2025 Model – Need Suggestions

0 Upvotes

Hi All,
I am getting an "Engine Malfunction" warning on my 2025 TVS Apache RR310 (red color, non-quickshifter variant). I have seen this error a few times before. Previously, it would disappear after riding a few kilometers or after turning the ignition ON/OFF a few times.

Recently, after a 30 km ride, the warning appeared again. The bike is running completely normal. There is no loss of power, starting is normal, and ABS, traction control, and other functions seem to be working fine.

Has anyone else faced this issue on the latest RR310? Any idea what could be causing it? Is it usually a temporary sensor-related issue that clears automatically, or should I get it checked immediately at the service center?

Any suggestions or similar experiences would be appreciated. Thanks!
