I know what you're doing with that hand in your pocket. I'd probably be doing the same . . . . after I accidently ended up driving around lost on that beautiful piece of tarmac.

Went for an evening walk with a friend, found this pristine, completely deserted stretch of tarmac. Walked for over an hour, never found a turnoff, never saw a living soul or a single vehicle,
and ended up where we'd started. Weird.

I recognize that scoot, the red crash bars and accents are a signature off the white.
Very good looking ride
(Now I’m going to do some research to find a wheel and hub to convert my S10 front to a big wheel, good winter project):oops:

Apart from the Hardware….you will need software too, to reconfigure the ABS control module, and it works fine with 21”-17”

dont really get this. the s10 is an all road bike, not an off road bike. the 19 front is spot on. after riding my mates 1290 super adv r i was left thinking "where are ktm going with this?". its too much in the gravel, average on the blacktop. if you want a dakar bike, do as the rally folks do and get 150kg 450 with 60hp? i dunno, dont make sense to me at least

  • the guy on face book says in the thread that its a T7 tenere front end
Yes it is. the entire front end is modified from t7 tenere and modified Traktive shock absorption


really much better handling and a better tire selection. I feel like the xt 1200 was originally designed like this. now there is enough ground clearance and with the traction suspension, more flexibility. now this is an awesome device.

You have out-modded me, I'm running a 21 front wheel from a Africa Twin, is the ABS still working?

yes, all works

great, and no problems with the wheel hitting the skidplate? I had to slim it around the oilfilter

no problem. because of this, I used yamaha T7 shock absorbers, with which I could move the front wheel sufficiently forward

ABOVE WAS ALL TAKEN FROM THE THREAD hope it helps
