My battery gets replaced for free. It's a really nice vendor I bought it from.

Hi there I bought a Noco NLP14 back in March 2023 and now it is dead as well. I charged it twice during winter (October and January). The stock battery worked from 2019 - 2022 without charging during the winter... I'm now checking for warranty.

My 2020 battery just died this winter... Thanks to Max I know opted for the Noco NLP14 and I hope this one will last longer. Always nice to get a good tip here!

Hi, the setup is: Motogadget mo.blaze pin Kellermann m8 30 mm adapter A complete list you can find here: https://www.ftr1200forums.com/threads/ftr-mods-as-promised.366/ But my current setup are mo.blaze disc bar end turn signal. I absolutely love those.

The turn signals are sold!

There is some hope, but still forget about longer bolts :) You can get creative like that somehow: Or use the accessories screws:

You can't use them with longer screws/bolts, forgett about that. You want that screw to be in place correctly and tight. I can check if I see a solution to mount them somehow else.

I ride with my girl all the time. She is very small and light though (<160). The gas tank is small anyway, so we have to stop from time to time. It's not the most comfortable bike I ever had for a passenger but it's not the worst either. I was riding with my sister as well and she is 180, for...

Hi guys, I'm still working on a video to compare original cat with a TK pipe. I did some dB measurements at 4250 RPM, 45° angle and 0.5 m distance. Akras (original dB reducer in place) with original cat was 88 dB and Akras with TK pipe was 96 dB. I'm running his tune but have some hot start...

Hi guys, I'm selling my Wunderkind Custom rear turn signals including two resistors 5 W- 27 OHM. They are in perfect condition and I had no issues with them. I changed to bar end turn signals and in Switzerland it's not allowed to have both. Now I installed the luggage rack, so I had to remove...

My girl and I did a nice 700 km trip this weekend to southern Switzerland. From 8 ° Celsius in the mountains to 24 ° in the south, the conditions where absolutely brilliant. To my surprise, there was little to no traffic. Can't wait untill the mountain passes are open again. We made a stop at...

Ja ich weiss von dem Problem. Ist wiedermal typisch Schweiz... Ich habe hinten die Blinker von Wunderkind und die müssen weg, weil ich die Gepäckbrücke installieren möchte. War auch der Hauptgrund, warum ich die Lenkerendblinker montiert habe. Als Notlösung sind die Lenkerendblinker nach hinten...

I liked my first solution, where I used the headlight screws to mount the indicators: Now I went for bar end indicators:

I will open a new thread about his pipe and tune once it arrived and I was able to install it. I'm planning to do a before and after sound sample. If I can lay my hands on a noise level meter, I will also do some measurements. So stay tuned if you're interested in it.

If you need more help, just drop me a PM.

How do you like the Gilles? I'm especially curious about the double ball bearings thing. I'm still looking for levers and couldn't decide yet. Gilles are finally available here with all necessary paperwork.

Thanks for the contact! I reached out to him. What a nice guy. I ordered his pipe and his tune. It seems we have a very competent tuner as well here in Europe. Wondering how it is going to be.

I just noticed that HeinzBikes makes site mounted plate holders specific for the FTR. I had to go down the expensive road and mix a Rizoma support kit with a HeinzBixes slip-inn holder. If anyone in Europe is still looking for a nice solution. The quality of HeinzBikes products is excellent. I...

Welcome from Switzerland, another neighbour 😌 I once saw an FTR with such a colour around here. Looks nice on the base model. As a tip: The angle of the number plate might get you in trouble here 😉 Max. 30° is allowed. It very depends on the friendly policeman who stops you, but I once paid for...
