Anyone interested in a 44t Stealth (KTM branded orange) rear sprocket for a single? Only got a couple hundred miles on it (maybe less) from use at a track day. Swapped out for all AL to shave weight, so the Stealth is gathering dust.

Swapped out the fuel filter on the 690. Like most reports mine was on the dirty early track. 45xx miles and the filter element was coffee grounds brown. Ick.

And getting it all back in is a pregnant dog! One simple comment in the manual would have saved me 10-15 min of try try trying to stuff the hoses back in. Something to the effect of "turn the pump assembly 1/2 turn once the filter has passed though the tank port" - How hard would that be to note... Secret Austrian tricks.

They thought you would figure that out when you removed the old filter.     Grin

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

it all comes out pretty easily. But the tank on a 690 is a weird shape, cramped thing. One doesn't just stick stuff back in like on a Monster.

But lesson learned.

Aaaand I've got a new light rotor coming today. *Hopefully* it fits. If not... anyone interested in a 320mm Braking SK2? It's listed to fit up to a 560... Kev?

Might be - I saw that size floating around too but this is (supposed to be) a 320. I'll find out this evening.

Well, I put the 450 and the 950 to bed for the winter.

The 950 is on front and rear stands and the 450 is on its pit stand.  I drained the fuel from the tanks and from the carbs to keep my pilot jets in good shape (450 is really sensitive to this) plugged in the battery tenders and that's all she wrote Sad
