    Ich habe davon gehört und meinem KTM Händler den Link geschickt. Mal schauen, was er dazu sagt. Außerdem wurde in der aktuellen Ausgabe der Tourenfahrer (03/16) darüber berichtet, dass das 17er Modell eine verbesserte Gabel mit anderen Ventilen erhalten wird. Ferner soll es ein Fahrwerksupdate geben. Es wird berichtet, dass die Kosten für den Umbau noch nicht feststehen. Ob das heißt, dass es möglicherweise auch eine Kulanzlösung gibt, steht in den Sternen.


    I heard about that and I talked to my KTM dealer and sent him the link of this post. Let's see what he'll find out. Further this post, there was a story in the german Biker-magazine, "Tourenfahrer" which says, that there will be a modified fork with different/new valves for 17th model. Additional for this there''ll be a new launch for the software. The prices are not fixed yet, if that means that there will be a goodwill solution by KTM is doubtful.



    danke MikeTe :Daumen hoch:


    if the 2015/16? owners don't get a fix from KTM, it will make our bikes resale value lower than it should be, which will make me never buy a launch model from KTM again

    Clunking sound forks:
    I just read the below post on AdvRider forum - anybody heard this elsewhere?
    "I noticed from the first day the issue about the clunk in the fork. It has been a long process that required analysis, much trial and error and a set of forks overnighted directly from KTM. None of these efforts yielded a solution, but did make clear what the root of the problem was. Something in the fork was not right. Every step of the way, my dealer who sold me the bike - Ken & Joe's Honda, Kawasaki & KTM - were on the issue and in constant communication with KTM NA. They were always proactive, calling whenever there was new information or a new approach to the issue. As of yesterday, the issue has finally been laid to rest. Installing the right side fork cartridge from the 2016 1290 Super Adventure is the answer. Finally, I have a motorcycle that feels whole! I no longer have to think to myself how great the bike is - except for the forks....
    If you're looking for a dealer who understands the problem and knows how to fix it, give them a call at 661-254-2929. Ask for Jim in Service. Jim & the service dept are switched on. Even if you're not in the area and your dealer could use some direction on the problem, have your dealer call my dealer. "

    Ich finde die Reichweitenanzeige und die Reserve deutlich zu konservativ programmiert...
    Bei ca.12 l im Tank muss man die Reserve bestätigen. Für mich überzogen...


    I agree - there are two things I find stupid on the bike: the fuel reserve management and the flasher that does not stay ON long enough - I'm thinking of having my flasher auto reset deactivated


    I sent my email address in a Private message to you


    danke, aber wo kommt dieses her? (thanks, but where did you get the information?)
