Thread: 950 smr

Right, ive had the SMR for just over a week and i love this bike sooo much. Its quick and so forgiving its making even a ham fisted nob like me look good around the lanes...Anyway, the bike came with Akra endcans and Premier Bikes said they did the basic needle/jets adjustments when the cans were fitted on first service..Can anyone advise me of any inexpensive mods i can do cos now ive bought the bike and whacked a new rear tyre on im Potless for a couple of months....And i still have a 17 front sprocket, so is it worth starting there ??.....Cheers Si

Yes, get a 16t on. Best value for money mod you'll do

epc + sas removal. http://www.ktm950.info/

Are the baffles out?

They may have done the rejet to suit this.

I wouldnt pay someone to do the SAS stuff. By all means get it dyno'd after for piece of mind but the entire job is straight forward. I think its Millar who is selling the bling billet alui caps or Kev is selling the basic stuff that I used.

Also, the rubber end caps are worth it too. Ill dig the name out for you.

Less than 1 hour all in.

Nice one, Thanks Tell.....

Had mine a week as well, just about to upgrade my RAC membership to Recovery- called them out twice, which beats 4 years of Ducati ownership. When my blood pressure return to normal I'll post first impressions. For now, just make sure the tyre pressures are at 30 to 31 psi F&R, it's a big improvement over standard, so is rotating the bars forward by an inch, and all for free!
