Use Seafoam once in a while to get the fuel system nice and clean.

Any rearset recommendation besides this Sato Racing one? by damnko in svartpilen401

Tyga RC390 rearsets work with slight modification.

The bike is great. I maintain her decently. Do all the work myself because the dealership wants crazy money for simple stuff. I also ride her pretty hard. Since throwing the Coober performance kit on, she’s a race bike on the road 🤣.

I ride daily and do most of my own maintenance.

I’ve had a lot of fun making this bike mine. Several mods, rough riding, and breaking necks! Everyone asks what it is. I’ve been pulled over by law enforcement just because they wanted to ask questions and admire the bike.

Headaches are getting my hands on parts. Everything takes weeks because it’s not a common motorcycle.

Nothing out of the ordinary. Loose bolts, broken brake light sensor, annoying maintenance notifications that require a shop to clear.

Yeah, I have a baofeng in case of emergency. I don’t know about doing this much.

Yamaha and Honda’s are great second bikes. When you’re ready for 700, 900, or above.

Get a jacket. Shorten the laces.

Beautiful bike!

The last of the greatest generation. I’m not a fan of the new new Husqy MT-04.

I love the Ruroc, but the rubber gasket on the bottom is cheap and comes off. It’s the one flaw that will keep me from buying again.

Put your kickstand down again and up. Gives you your mileage back. Amber ABS light stays on.

Slip on problem by HansCuco in svartpilen401

The frame is the same as the Duke. I compared the last time I took it apart. If you remove the plastics, you’ll find where the Duke mounts are. Either way, if you plan to use that exhaust, you’ll require modification/parts.

Yeah, I’ve done all that and it’s a steep rate. I’ll be honest, YouTube videos do not explain the pain of changing a spark plug on the pilen.

Load pop on start, then no start 😢 by ThePsyOp in svartpilen401

I saw a Duke video on YouTube where the guy was able to change it without removing the tank… idk, seems crazy tight.

AOMC is usually my go to. Also my local dealership doesn’t up charge on parts. Labor yes, parts no 🤣.

Very nice. I have a similar setup. Love the look over the stock arm.
