Man your bike looks amazing! I have the same color 1290 as you do and just last night I purchased the same exhaust slip on as yours. I then saw your video today and had to get the same orange seat and the carbon fiber seat cowl! I can't wait till it all comes in and I get it on my bike! I'm so stoked, it's going to be sick! I really like the few stickers you put on it, gives it a nice touch!
@@theswedishbikerguy I live in Houston, Texas in the US. Not very many great roads to ride in Houston like what you have where you are, there is a ton of traffic everwhere but I do hit the race tracks on occasion! There are some good roads to ride in the hill country up around San Antonio, Texas but thats a few hours away from where I live. I raced an R6 and an R1 in some club racing for 10 years but now I'm getting old LOL, so I purchased the Duke to just have some fun on when I feel like it. I have always loved the look of the Duke! It's looking like it will take a mounth before I receive my exhaust from Austin Racing but I'm patiently looking forward to it!
Tackar!! 😊 I mitt tycke 701an men på pappret vinner nog duccen. Fick bättre känsla och kunde då ge lite mer. Ingen QS men fullmappad 698 gjorde sitt. Hade nog behövt lite mera tid för att vara helt bekväm och säkert då sett att den är lite tuffare framtoning. :)
Hey man :) I love your videos your my Favorite 1290 RU-vidr! I love watching you wheelie the Beast :D What Throttle setting would you recommend for riding wheelies ?
Haha thx a lot mate! Glad to hear that its viewable =) I usually on street run Sport, sometimes track on the throttle but it gets a bit more twitchy. I took away the "gap" in the throttle house to so its nice and firm.
Absolutely insane! The fact they can pop up in 5th gear is mad 🤣 really are the wheelie king 👑 fast af too! Look very nice they're all good except the sound!
Jo det finns en viss skillnad speciellt 250km/h+ men försumbar för priset det kostar. Jag kör ju i 70-250 och då fungerar det som det ska. Kan lyfta framhjulet i 200 och det är som min förra så jag är nöjd :)
Original ÄR bra faktiskt men PP är snäppet bättre i utformningen och ”stunsen” 😅 Värt ett köp? Absolut i mitt tycke. Kraschbågarna är också KTM PP. Finns hos din lokala ktm handlare att beställa :)👍
@@juicer404Well i thought about that but getting it of the bike with the bits and mapping.. aaand it had done so many km so it was a bit scuffed ;) Getting a nice Slipon this week ;)
@@theswedishbikerguy yes I thought it be a bit awkward transferring over and having to put old map back on to sell old bike and then a new map , I sourced full akra for 2500e on eBay new, I’m like a child at Christmas here waiting on it to arrive , ur vids inspired me to buy one 🤣
@@juicer404Oooh happy to hear!! 🤘😍 Epic bike and akra aint bad at all.. We will see if i will be satisefied with only the slipon. Any vids up on your channel..? Going for a peek 😃
That was a nice clean round. Let the haters do the talking. None of them have ever been to the ring. They only know it from their armchairs and Playstations. Those who know the Nordschleife don't write such things and recognize every good lap.
Indeed mate! If someone dont post a link with their exceptional lap.. otherwise im a goose in water ;) Always a big difference with those who can ride and dont. I got 7 or 8 laps around nordschleife in total so im a beginner on that one haha. Thanks for the words!! =)
Since you asked, you're english is really good. Lovely bike. Wheelies are very anti-social; good man, you're doing gods work 😂😂 Do you ever go to the bike events in the summer ? Pretty sure there's at least 1 big event in Sweden around the end of the summer; I notice the Supermoto guys are really into it.
Thanks a lot mate!! =) Did another vlog but the audio was shit..haha oh well more is yet to come. Well not that much actually, just localy stuff. That one is a bit more fore the supermotos and with my lack of wheelies slooow i would just get in their way i recon ;) Really big thx for the positive vibe! =)
@@theswedishbikerguy well, I'm a lot worse than you at wheelies but I plan to go next year; if I'm in the way they can just go around 😂 No worries dude, talk again soon 👍
Haha well just listen then :) There is a lot of engine noise in the movie :) Needs a bit of both otherwise it goes a bit windy. But there will be some vids that will suit you further down! Cheerio! 🥳
