What did you do to your gasser today?

The photos of the 505 here are from Hungry Creek,s bike at 1750km.

That's what my tyres look like after about 500ks

Even 1000 is huge

Eckxackery! Bit severe to lock it up without attending to the issue.
But as has been said before....Unprecedented times

[tmac450]

Yeah so done directly. no wifi etc. etc.

And its only the clip that positively secures pads in the caliper? ....hey

Yep, locked directly.

It's the clip on the front calliper that holds the brake pin in.

Originally GG put them on backwards and solution is was to turn them around.

Same clip on the Katos and same as the clips on the back brakes. That's what lock wire is for

[Motoxfox]

Yep. Not sure about remotely. It was locked at the dealership under direction from GG.
I'm taking it back tomorrow for the fix and unlocking.
Problem now is, I've got no idea when I'll have the time to ride it

Maybe it needs some John Deere stickers on it. They like locking down their tractors .

Tmac ...truly? Is that saying what it appears?
The muthership is locking out ECU's via wifi commands?

Because of the stickering on the bike, we needed it to display at our new shop opening so they let me take it, but it won't start. Looks pretty though

Would love to ride mine, but there has been a recall on the front brake pin (same type KTM has used for eons) and the ECU is locked until the new pin arrives

I had a 525 previously, Hungry Creek runs the 505 on his 500 and 300 TPI the 505 lasts longer, he is getting 2000km out of them where I only got 1000km from the 525. The high profile helps with grip and puncture resistance as well. I'm changing the gearing from 13/52 to 14/53 to get some more adjustment. The 525 grip is good but I think the 505 is as good if not a bit better.

Craigy , maybe try a Shinko 525 they aren’t as tall as the 505 and just as good a true if not better-also adding another link you might put the axle all the way back & lose your adjustment as the chain & sprocket wears.
Just a thought

4 days and 340km on my 2021 350F this week and it's a delight.
I wore a hole in the mudflap due to the Shinko 505 120 (I need to add a link to the chain) and used just over 10l of fuel.
