Very nice bike and great build can't wait to see some pics of it done.
Are the front tanks off a 9XX? if so I thought that they might fit and keep the weight lower.
Also I hate that they ship the led tail light In Europe (looks great) and we get some huge stupid one in North America.
Good luck with the rest

Will connect return from fuelregulator to the big outlet on pump. It says "fuel vapor" on the parts diagram, but being in contact with Thomas Berlgund and thats the way he routed it.

Cheers. I was hoping someone with this info would pop up.

ok. Is the fuel line on the left running from the rear tank and of the 2 remaining ports is one an inlet from the front tank and the other an output to the quad fuel pump?

If possible can you take some detail shots of the fuel lines? eg. what plugs into where?

cheers. nice build, kinda jealous, although I figure not the first person.

Yes, left port to (from) rear tank, upper right to front tanks, lower right to fuelpump.
Make me able to switch between front, rear or both tanks.
More pics will come after weekend.

Now thats big mony well spend :) Looks great!

Why dont you use a small car fuel pump? Many of them are external and usually cheap. Any known problems with that?

Thanks. Also what is the petcock that you have used?

[Evil Invader]

I´m baack!!! (About friggin time ey? )
Sorry for late replies....

StevenD: Basicaly this was the only one I found that would work with FI. For some reason the carpumps I found was labeled "not for FI"...Go figure...

Tileman: Stock rally petcock from the rallybikes art.no. 58507003100

So, what have I bein up to......

Upper tank mount that allso will be the base for the seatmount and steering damper




Seat mount




Left front mount (pretty straight forward)




Right front mount (not so straight forward)






Regulator mount






Next up.......We´ll se

Awesome stuff man, glad to finally see some people going for this. Alberto's kit looks good when it's done but the quality of OEM rally parts is certainly in a completely different league.

By the way there is a guy in Switzerland that is currently working with the KTM dealer in Basel having the same thing done to his 690 Enduro:

All ready been done

Not sure about the exhaust though, but I understand its a proto type.

[Evil Invader]

Yes I saw those. Wonder if they kept the FI or went carb?
The one from KTM Cape Town doesn´t look "finished" so to speak. Front tanks mounted too far out...

Oh well, better get goin with me own toy....To bad things get in the way, like work and other unnecessary things

[exiliadodecordoba]
