    X challenge fuel tank petcocks. ( Touratech)

    Also having a look at the Touratech tank installation manual and it states that you have to cut the plastic fuel filter off the Acerbis petcock before fitting to the tank.

    X challenge fuel tank petcocks. ( Touratech)

    Thanks Rouxman, I also managed to get a price of R284 each which is basically the same. Unfortunately they apparently sold the last one in stock this morning.( They are also used on various plastic KTMs) New ones only arrive in 2-3 weeks. That would be great if you can visually compare the...

    X challenge fuel tank petcocks. ( Touratech)

    Thanks Rouxman. I am also trying to phone Durban KTM at the moment but their spares okes are busy at the moment. Said they will call back. 34mm looks like a common size for most petcocks I see on the web. One will just have to make sure the hole & 'O' ring is the same size.

    Will do. Can anyone confirm if the mounting bolt holes in the petcock are 34mm center to center.

    X challenge fuel tank petcocks. ( Touratech)

    Thanks Rouxman, those KTM ones look good. Also a more compact design. They look similar to the ones on the 1190. I will do some measuring.

    X challenge fuel tank petcocks. ( Touratech)

    Hi, has anyone needed to replace the fuel petcock rubbers and O rings or replace the whole petcock on their Touratech fuel tanks? Mine are pretty corroded and weeping around the outside of the tap.

    Anyone for spares??? G650`s

    Hi. Sent a PM but not sure weather it went through. I am interested in the header pipe. The pictures show your one to be stainless steel whereas mine is just mild steel.

    Kenda big block tyre pressure

    Hopefully on weekend at end of the this month. I need to ride up to Nottingham Road on Saturday 30/9/17 to pick up a pair of boots at Red Line. Maybe can incorporate a Lotheni - Hela Hela round trip back to Durbs.

    Kenda big block tyre pressure

    Garrin, I try to keep mine at 2.8 rear & 2.5 front. That is me riding solo, but we both know it is about the same as normal people riding two up.

    KTM rusty bolts

    My bike is 2 years old and and the bolts on a whole don't seem to bad considering it lives on the Bluff. But the twelve or so front rotor bolts are completely rusted with all the electro-plating gone. I am going to replace them at the next service. Funny though, the rear rotor bolts still look...

    1290 R screen

    Sorry, I was referring to the 1190 screen. Didn't read the question right. No wonder I did so bad at school. Good to know that the touring screen works well.

    1290 R screen

    I fitted the standard clear adventure screen. For me it is much better than the small R screen on the highways at speed. I still get a bit of buffeting but neck muscles take a lot less strain. I would like to try the bigger tinted touring screen sometime. Iando, I see your avatar shows you have...

    My 1190R coolant level.

    Mine seems to have settled down now. After a month and just over 1000 km it is still right in the middle between Max & Min when cold.    :thumleft:

    My 1190R coolant level.

    Thanks Manic. It seems to be stable now at the halfway mark. Possibly a small airlock or two.
