Hello and excuse my English not very good .
In addition to the pleasure of riding, it is nice to do something with the motorcycle. I will show here my modifications in KTM 1290 SAS.
Curious, I watched this man's video. Very nice and cheap mod. I don't know what this space on the throttle is for, but for a few pounds I solved the problem.

I bought this set of Adjustable Brake Clutch Levers Handle.
Very good quality. Installation about 30 minutes. It's OK for me.

I was looking for a high windshield for routes. I bought a GIVI D7713ST. The seller asked if it could be KAPPA. It is exactly the same. Looks very good . We'll see on the highway.

I used the original rubber bumpers . A little bit but it works.

The charger can be purchased on aliexpress or ebay. You need to look for a waterproof QC3 PD charger...
It was possible to replace the LCD display after disassembling it. Very short cables. The connector doesn't fit either...
This waterproof cover doesn't fit a bit after installation. It is now mounted to the wiring harness....

Hey. The bike is ok. BMW was too expensive and not powerful. (But where to use it) Yes, I like the GS. Modern design. Funny people from the Facebook group do not see other bikes. Probably 160PS has convinced me. What I like:
suspension, engine flexibility, riding position, good electronics
I do not like:
Ugly engine sounds, Cheap black trim and paint. Look at the spoke rims from the GS - KTM is primitive. People buy with their eyes but I am satisfied. Such an expensive toy.

Hello.

Topic known from the Internet. Update horn. I chose FIAMM 72112 Freeway Blaster LOW Note. Quick replacement does not work. Horn error on the display. Second - Original has a resistance of about 110 Ohm. FIAAM a few Ohms. Current consumption can be dangerous for the control system.

We connect a regular car relay to the original wires. Resistance is about 90 Ohms. No error. Pin 85 ground (as I remember) 86 power supply + Connect to the original wires. Pins 30 and 87 are the power supply of the FIAAM Horn. It was convenient for me to use ACC from under the seat.

I am very pleased. Nice very loud sound and most importantly it should be safer on the road.
