    Ignition coils & water ingress: don’t change them too quickly!!! (Part1)

    Got it now Gokhan, you applied shrink tube. Not a bad idea I just wonder if it can withstand very high temperature as PTFE does. Time will tell us which one is best but I hope that both will work fine for years.

    Happy it works for you too. I was confident... Well done and thank for sharing your pictures. I'm sure that they will be useful for others. Isn't the concept of such forum ;)

    From my pictures, you see clearly this tube around each coil. I removed it (I was not the 1st one to do so) and remounted the same coil without after a good cleaning. I thought my tutorial was clear enough but it sounds not. Sorry

    I did not remount them. I read that most coil maker do not apply metal cover. My bike is running very well without.

    Ignition coils & water ingress: don’t change them too quickly!!! (Part1)

    I made 300km today by 35°C and bike is running like a shame. Cool. This place is for sure not close to ambient but it can't be higher than oil hot spot (110°C maybe). I believe it is FAR from PTFE application range (400°C) Anyway what bad could happen? It can't be worst than what it was before...

    Hi Folks, Frenchie in Cape Town… I love South Africa, except when it comes to rugby maybe (2023 world cup, quarter 28 FR – ZA 29, grrrrrr). East and Western Cap are really 2 wonderful provinces for motorbiking. For years, I’m happy to share this good time in CPT, often with my best fried. KTM...

    Givi PL2119 vs PLR2119 luggage racks.

    Not KLG but Kappa KGR46 + KGR33, 46l +33l, Givi Monokey system. Kappa KRG are exactly like Givi Trekker, except the cover who is in one piece. From this video, you can see how easy it is to mount/dismount them in 20s. You can also notice the 2pcs plastic fingers dedicated to Givi Trekker...
