Nicee I have 2024 401 svartpilen. Love this little bike but I'm struggling to buy accessories.. I have few videos on my channel any recommendations and I'm from the UK
I've had my 2018 model for a year and totally agree (I prefer the unpainted aluminium rims). I have made most of the mods that you have and I found that the handlebar vibration was down to removing the internal brass bar end weights when fitting the bar end mirrors. By cutting off the slope at the end I refitted them and the vibration disappeared. Since I added the FuelX Lite it now runs as it always should have, brilliant. In the UK we get l.e.d. indicators as standard but not as small as those. After it's weight loss programme, mine now weighs 335lb with a full tank of fuel. You might have a tough time replacing it, good luck and thanks for the review.
That's the first time I've ever heard that the optimal fill point is halfway between the high and low marks on the dipstick. While that's fine, I always refill the oil to the full mark. What's your issue with that, since you obviously think that midway is better?
Great first bike man, I’m an expert rider and I wouldn’t sell mine for the world. It’s my daily and it does great off road, hill climbs, small jumps, hard cornering on the street and tail happy you can keep wide open on the dirt. And I have no problem passing semi trucks without tucking. Great ab workout
Why not that many subs? I see a car maintenance video I subscribe, esp when it is better and more advanced than mine. I like to try to "DIY" - 2 days ago zip ties intake valves cleaning on 2.0 tfsi a6 c6, 15 yo never taken out black as night injectors taken out and left overnight in kerosine, tomorrow teflon seals arriving and really looking forward seeing if there is any noticeable difference. Drive safe!
Damn it, I wish you posted this video 2 and half weeks earlier. The best videos I could find were on the duke/rc 390's. This is the most complete video with best angles I've seen so far. I was thinking of making a video of this myself, but you beat me to it and did a better job than I would have. Thanks, this will help a lot for my next oil change. How do you like the bike?
@@jeffstone28 customer supplied, not my car 😂 but I do recommend going with oem filters if possible. As long as you’re changing your oil frequently, any filter is better than lack of oil changes.
Ducati level quality… 😂 obviously you’ve never owned a Ducati. Outside of the sheer beauty of a Ducati, they were the worst bikes I’ve ever owned. I will never buy another, no matter how cool they look.
Hi from New Zealand 🇳🇿 I was going to get one of these but ended up with a Triumph Trident 660. Love your indicators what make are they? Since your more of a car guy my car is a Mercedes benz E63. Just subscribed Cheers
Great choice on the Trident! Thank you for the sub 🙏 the micro led’s were purchased from revzilla, motogadget is the brand. Link below www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/motogadget-m-blaze-pin-led-turn-signal?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiA98WrBhAYEiwA2WvhOqBwMEt9-7TNnUyR-CsobZCxSkmW1RkYtt0gHgIFckJevWzw9isE-xoCYh0QAvD_BwE I will be uploading another video this week, which actually shows them in action.
It's an awesome bike all in all. Got mine in late 2023 and can't stop riding it for a single day. Super light with only about 150kg and very manoeuvrable, seems reliant and quick in acceleartion, off road capability is also nice with stock tires and the semi-automatic rekluse. Cheap aswell, i bought it new for like 4500€ excluding after market stuff. I personally wouldn't change the exhaust, stock rear fender or turn signals, i think that would change to much of it's character, but that's a taste of matter anyway. Best looking naked bike out there for sure.
First time I changed the oil on my 2016 Outback it turned out the #>@! who did the last change cranked the plug on so tight it was almost impossible to budge. Almost. Once it was off I replaced it with a Smart-O plug. Far superior to the factory plug.
I'm having trouble putting my fuel rail back on my car I just replaced all fuel injector seals an am trying to put my fuel injector rails back on n I keep stripping the new o rings on the fuel injectors. Can some one give me a clue on how to resolve this
You mentioned you were going to put a link on the page for the turn signals. I do not see one. What is the brand name? can you send the link as promised?
Original drain plug on this outback was a 14mm, Subaru bulletin has upgraded to 17mm. See bulletin link below. This plug was in great shape so I reused it with a new washer. www.subaruoutback.org/threads/found-this-release-from-subaru-about-their-change-in-oil-pan-drain-plugs-including-torque-specs-and-model-numbers.557853/
I overhauled my front suspensions 8 control arms sway bar links and all bushings for 3400$ now it rides like a brand new car so im satisfied even if it was a bit pricy 🤷🏻🙂
Right on. Time & climate deteriorate the rubber components in all vehicles. The peace of mind once you replace bushing, joints, arms & mounts is well worth the price shops usually ask for. Plus i dont have to get my hands dirty buy tools or spend time 😅
Might be a size rather than displacement thing too. The outgoing 401s are actually very compact in person. So while they look absolutely unique and are real headturners, their actual presence on the road and also in proportion to taller riders (like 6ft and up) could literally be bigger.
Might have to invest in the stage 2 filter and o2 interceptor. My 2022 svart has bar ends, after market exhaust, tail tidy,after market turn signals, and a 1 finger clutch lever and 2 finger break lever and i love the thing. Ride it every chance i get. Probably gonna swap the rear sprocket soon for more acceleration, i highly reccomend the bike for beginners or anyone who doesnt do a lot of highway commuting
Thank you for this video. Multiple Audi dealerships could not solve this problem. This video, my trusty mechanic, and purchasing some OEM parts saved the day!!!
Yes, I ordered the Kafeek 2 pin LED Flasher relay from amazon. You will need to remove the pins and reposition the terminals to get the relay to properly work. Bit of a pain but not terrible.
I replaced them mainly because I hated the stock mirrors. Aimed correctly, the end mirrors have great visibility. I purchased the Husqvarna factory equipment, I can’t speak on non husky mirrors.
I’ve got the 2021. It’s a really cool bike, but haven’t ridden it much since buying. I have the mid muffler delete I plan on installing this spring. I have those bar ends mirrors and they are great. The turn signals I want are stupid expensive at $99 per but really nice. Finding neutral is a bear. I’ve taken mine off road chasing my little cousin on his dirt bike and the little Svart was quick and torque
Umm this is completely backwards.. Why is the Audi guy vaping, and NOT the Subie guy?? lol Great video... Great channel... Just came from watching your 20K mile oil change on your '21.. We have the same two cars.. Almost lol a '20 STI and a B9 Audi S4. Will definitely have to subscribe. 👍
