Long time, no post. Retiring & moving kind of got in the way of posting....but not riding! Thinking about flashing my original 2012 ST and want to know what has transpired over the past several years in regards to flashing, PC-V, etc? My ST has is still stock, but I have a Leo Vince slip-on...

Zip tie your spokes together where they cross each other to help prevent any additional damage from a broken spoke. All of us desert racers did this for years (using safety wire before there was zip-ties). I do this on all my spoke rims.

Here are some pics of the fuel pump when I had it out many years ago. In the first pic the fuel pump is partially disassembled so you can see the fuel filter element. The other pics show a close up of the filter. As you can see the filter is crimped on and is not easily replaceable.

Mine just shipped from RMATV. Ordered on 20 June Shipped on 12 Sep Cost $30.76 They gave me B/O ship dates of 7/7, 7/29, 9/22 and just last week saying it would be shipped on 10/20. Imagine my surprise when I got a email saying it shipped over a month earlier than their last estimate. I...

Who here has installed the manual CCT? All of my older bikes were manual (typically spring loaded plunger with a lock nut/bolt) and never had any issues. I just replaced the hydraulic CCT on my KTM 530 with a completely manual one (not spring loaded) and I could not believe the difference in...

I assume you are adjusting the fueling only with the PC V right now. Are you then planning on importing the PCV map into Flash Tune or adjusting the fueling via Flash Tune manually and re-flashing the ECU? It is interesting that both cylinders are adjusting about the amount, even though with...

Mine goes off-road all the time. If it's going to be gnarly I'll take my KTM530.....unless I screw up and end up on a Double-Black-Diamond off-road torture trail (aka the Devils Punchbowl) in the Colorado Rockies.......don't ask me how....but the ST came thru....but the Altrider skid plate...

Can you elaborate on this for those of us that have the FT software but have not flashed our bikes yet?

Metzeler Tournace now made in China!?!?!? WTF? Just down at the 'local' bike shop (local is 100 miles away for me) and saw a slew of Metzeler Tourances (not the EXP) in 150/70-17...and the sidewall says 'Made in China'!?!? When did this happen? Hope these are not Chinese knockoffs... -steve

sold

I just sent LeoVince USA a email asking about availability of the ST slip ons and here is the reply I received: "Dear Customer, LeoVince USA has ended its distribution agreement with the LeoVince brands and is no longer selling or servicing this brand. If you have warranty needs or product...

I just ran into the same thing.......very disappointing. Jaxon....Any hints to be given on what might be new for the ST?

and another using different Yamaha rubber bumpers.... http://www.yamahasupertenere.com/index.php?topic=2306.0

It is interesting to see the new folks go thru alot of the questions, concerns, etc that us 'old timers' went thru back when we got our PDP bikes in August 2011. Just those old threads are buried.
