And $21k for a 701 [b]EXCUSE ME[/]?! I'm looking at that partlist and not seeing anything that brings it anywhere close to 25k so did he just pay an extra bootlicking tax on the graphics or what? Ok I see now he dropped the price of a used 701 on a rally kit for cosplay purposes. It's the perfect lightweight adventure bike!

FBS posted:Eight dollars a mile I was just wondering how that math would work. My cb300f would be, let's see: $4k bike 10 or so oil changes at, I dunno, $20 dollars each? Two new sets of tires at $500 total with mounting. A spark plug one time, maybe $10 dollars A DID chain, what the hell do those cost, $100? Oh and a sprocket? Hmn let's say $200? Another $400 for some very nice custom bags with mounting hardware and a windshield I never used. It had a bit over 25k miles when I sold it so thats... What, .2 ish dollars per mile? Without gas or insurance. You know, typing this out, it's funny how many maintenance costs I forgot about at first. Also, my DR650 is going to have a way worse result because of all the off road poo poo I bought for it, ugh. Jack B Nimble fucked around with this message at 19:28 on Dec 2, 2020 |

Low information voter blowing more money than they have skills, now wanting others to bail them out of their stupid decisions. Good going, gently caress you chud, and gently caress your tacky chelsea tractor. Buy a honda 250 rally, 300 or ptwin 500 it. Throw whatever suspension you'd like at it, and even if you did all this brand loving new, you'd still be under 10k for a lightish highway capable dualsport bike, with 8k oil and 16k valves.

LMAO thanks for breaking all that down. I'm astonished at how much he spent. I mean there are plenty of 10k+ groms but those guys are idiots too. To your points: SAS and Canister Removal Kit $60 - to reduce weight. Obviously. This is really stupid, because you can do that with a couple bucks at the hardware store, probably less. Everyone does it and it's the easiest thing in the world. Rottweiler Intake System $350 - the gently caress is this? Crankcase Breather Blanking Kit For Rottweiler Intake Kits $20 - for all your very deep water crossings? All the rottweiler stuff cracks me up. That's what basic bitches with too much money just buy everything for. This is a pod intake, basically. When I modded my 690 I found the stock airbox with a high flow filter ran better and was plenty for a fully tuned setup. AND YOU CAN CROSS RIVERS STILL. Edit: https://www.rottweilerperformance.com/rottweiler-intake-system-701-husky/ THREE HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLARS for a short ram dust eating intake. With his setup he has the blanking kit but his "rally" bike is going to be sucking up nothing but dust all day every day. DynoJet Power Commander V $390 - why not a new ECU? Stupid. DynoJet Autotune $270 - is this different? Again, just get a new ECU. They're like $700 and much better than this nonsense. The autotune is for people who don't want to pay someone to tune their bike. The crazy part is if you have half a brain and a laptop you can flash a good map to this bike with a $25 cable with better results. Unless the 701 doesn't have a canbus plug? It's not like he went big bore or anything he doesn't need 700 in ecu+tune. KTM 690 Enduro front fender $30.00 - again, SIX THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED DOLLARS and it doesn't come with a front fender? What was wrong with the old front fender? He probably just wanted to make sure he got a white fender. Really, I sympathize with the urge to make it rain on the 690/701. Either you leave it stock and are happy, or you go down the rabbit hole because there is just so much you can and should fix about the bike. I would have been happier if I'd left it stock, but a few bucks here and there on the bike have good returns. BUT JESUS WEPT $6700 for a cosmetic kit. The whole point of getting a KTM is it's already sorted from the factory with decent parts unless you are a racer who knows what they want. edit edit Oh look, it's THE ENTIRE BIKE for less than he paid for his lovely kit. It's also got most of the important mods he made and some improvements PLUS A loving SUMO SET . https://www.cycletrader.com/listing/2016-5014763646 You could get this bike plus a good soft bag system and still have money left over and you'd have a better rally bike. https://moskomoto.com/products/reckless-80l Coydog fucked around with this message at 00:43 on Dec 3, 2020 |

To your points: I didn't realize that about the intake. That's easily the single worst mod on his entire bike. RIP your motor. And the stock fender is white! I've seen folks putting the lowered fender on bikes (although I'm skeptical if you're not a pro and changing it out for a higher/regular one for muddy days) but he's not even changing the height.

To your points: Lol that's the same filter they sell to the 950/990 lc8 crowd. There's no way to modify the filter to not pass dust. Consider it a $350 sure fire engine killer. Just..Ignore Rottweiler and buy poo poo off wish or something. You'll be better ahead. It's a hilariously bad filter that they rebrand from ITG. You can make SAS blockoff plates with an old piece of server case but no old men at starbucks will hit on you. Blanking kit for the pcv? So that it can make an already leaky engine piss even more from crankecase pressure changes? Splendid. At least put $5 of thought into it and use an old honda XR oil separator or something then pipe the the runoff to lube your chain like some lazy rear end klr owner.

You all say that until you have to choose between dropping a gear or getting that insurance bill increase. Then you'd all wish you decal'ed your busa's with the thin blue line... if it worked... which it wouldn't... but if it did you would. Just don't turn this forum into a house of lies.

I've still haven't received a ticket on my bike and I got pulled over doing over 100mph. No thin blue line on my bike, but I did have a Fartbarf sticker on my helmet that the cop asked about.

There is standalone aftermarket ECUs that fit the 701 but they aren't as common as the power commander. The stock ECU hasn't been flashable for years. SAS/Canister removal requires dongles to fool the engine so it doesn't throw up an check engine light OR the race kit tune it's not available for all bikes/countries. The PCV blanking kit is just an external filter instead of routing it through the airbox, however still seems dumb to me, at least use a catch can. And yeah Rottweiler always struck me as overpriced junk, unfortunately no matter what bike you have it's difficult to find out 100% factual information about what performance mods actually work and are reliable.

Thin blue line is gross. My honest answer is that I'm not brave enough to have my personal property display any politics because I don't want to get randomly targeted by an extremist someday. So no presidential bumper bumper sticker, no BLM sticker on my laptop, etc.
