Re: Anyone Removed a.b.s. from their KTM 990 ADVENTURE

sorry was only trying to help. The last time i saw damage like that on a rear brake was on a honda v4 400 race bike. it was caused by the mount for the rear caliper being damage. There was a hair line crack in the mount causing the pads to run slightly out of line. this causes heat build up with fri...

Re: 950 adv head wobble

Never had a problem on mine either. check tyre pressures and firm up suspension.
Mines always on sports settings even when i green lane.
Its trial n error as every ones riding style is different.
A steering damper can actually make the problem worse if not fitted and adjusted correctly.
