Definitely a p.i.t.a. Especially after I broke an easy out off in the one bolt >:(

Thanks guys, i just went for a quick ride and it all feels good. Just going to leave it as is :thumleft:

This is how far the forks protrude above the triple clamp now....

This is what the bottom of the steering head looks like now, just a little black from the seal visible....

I just finished installing a Scott steering damper and triple clamp on my bike. The instructions were quite clear about securing the forks with tie downs/ropes to something above the bike so that they don't come off the bike once you undo the steering stem nut. Despite my best efforts, it did...

Zero value....keep them in case you damage your brand new Akros

Cool, I made the right choice then, just walked out a shop here in Hong Kong with a Shoei. Plain colored ones are 3100 HK dollar and graphics ones are 3600 HK dollar. 1HK dollar = 1 Rand, give or take👍

What are these helmets going for nowdays? Any input from current owners? Compared to Arai?

Directly from Scott in the USA. About $600 (not including shipping and obligatory reaming by customs)including the BRP triple clamp (just get it). Unless a forum vendor has it in stock at a reasonable price? Check with Runner

Klaar gekoop, Akros

Like this? I think there are quite a few already....

kan nie wag nie.....

I'm in love again ;D

So I think I will give it some stick through the gears, not exceeding 6500 rpm :thumleft:

Mmm...ja, 4000 rpm gives me about 110kmh. The first 1000 is going to be torture ;D But what about the exhaust issue, is it really better for the bike to do the first 1000 on the standard pipes (damn hot they are :o)

So is there any consensus about the best/correct procedure to do the first 1000 kays? KTM recommends no more than 6500 rpm, local KTM mechanic says keep it at 4000 rpm... Also, they (the dealer) here recommend to do the first 1000 kays with the factory zorsts before throwing the Akros on...

Sorry, only been to the airport in Larnaca :-\

Those holes might make the "cooling airflow" worse, aerodynamics and all. Just a guess :-\

Nice bike! Ride safe :thumleft:

450's and "paddle tires" = lots of fun :thumleft:
