software updates for kTm1190

[shay]

Got software updates to the bike this week, after getting a letter from kTm. kTm also extended the warranty to 3 years, which was a nice surprise! Takes the worry out of owning a 1st gen bike.

Got to take mine later on this week, what else have they done as mine needs a few other things changing, apparently.

There's a few bits and bobs of changes, new sidestand, longer centrestand bolts, new washer on steering dampner, new breather pipe from oil filler, from what I remember. All changes due to us beta testing the 1st gen, which is why i appreciate the extra year's warranty cover. There might be more stuff, advrider has a couple of threads listing stuff done under warranty. I had to get a new battery earlier this year, mine wasn't holding a charge, free under warranty.

So far so good.. still very happy with this bike.

There's also a new rear shock mount
Mines been gone over a week now , the software update blew its mind and it's locked in transport mode still

Well I hope you have better luck than i have , been 2 weeks tomorrow( Was told it would be 2 hours)
Being given the cold shoulder treatment at the moment and not being told anything.
Already missed a camping weekend at Oulton park
Am off to Spain next month for moto GP , I dont fancy going on this fucking thing

If that's your courtesy bike then I have seen worse things, but not for travelling to Spain unless you're a young thing!

Well didn't get the software update, machine was playing up so got to go back another time, probably just as well as I don't want it screwed up before a trip.

Well they finally found out what the shizzle is
Got to send the keys back to the Austrian mothership for recoding and we should be good

picking my bike up today , finally fixed....
Took them 3 weeks , however i will use that as a negotiation point for the cost of my wait and considerable waste of time...
Dealers seems to have helped out a lot so lets see how it is
