Well final update on the bike (Olive tree is doing well fyi)
Throttle response is amazing now, so much nicer to ride both at low speed and when being a bit more progressive with better in gear pick up. Used to dread slow corners or traffic, it’s just lovely. Looking at the Dyno print out, it’s a nice flat torque curve and a smooth and progressive power curve that climbs all the way to the redline. Feels like the damn thing just wants to go with power everywhere above 2k. That and the new head bearings, genuinely feels like night and day.
If anyone has a 990/1390 etc KTM highly recommend taking the trip up to Peterborough and BSD Performance.
