Re: KTM 1290 Adventure R Thread
You order them and buy direct from the supplier, I bought the silencer and carbon heel guard and wings seat coolers, Silencer comes with two restrictors for different sounds, you can leave without or chose from large and small, I currently have the large in and in my opinion it sounds just right.

Re: KTM 1290 Adventure R Thread
Nice bike,
Mine is currently in for its first service and to fit a top box i got in the purchase deal.
Already fitted the wings exhaust and carbon side panels, the silencer wakes up the sound and releases an awful lot of weight over standard.

KTM 1290 Adventure R Thread
Bought one of these recently thought I would start a thread to see if any others own the KTM 1290 Adventure R and to gather information on upgrades and farkles.
It would be great to here from other owners.
