You will have Arsey and Cookie hunting you down for suggesting such heresy
I did give it some thought

I'll check with the dealer if there's a software switch, but since its basically the same bike as the 1290SAS, surely just putting on 19/17 wheels, even KTM ones with the ABS ring to match, should be doable.
Renapoed = remapped
Rear wheel replaced under warranty, I’ll keep an eye on this new one.
Anyone had a remap? Is it worth it? The fuelling seems pretty good but it doesn’t seem as happy to rev as my old 1190
I have a few questions for any owners, please ?
1/Am I right in thinking that I can have turn by turn nav if I pay for the nav app and then Bluetooth it to the screen ?
If so, how good is it practice ? I would normally have Shoeis connected together via SRL/Bluetooth but seem to recall that I could pair them both via My Ride ?
2/ Can you get the heated Ergo rider and pillion seats for the R ?
The Configurator on the website only shows the 2022 1290S and not the R but I’m assuming you can as I had heated seats on my old bike ?
If so, and I went down this route, is there still an issue with the riders seat dropping as I recall reading a while back ?
Ta for any answers.
Thanks guys .
Paul, I wouldn’t go for the tall as my knees are fucked .
Any issues with seat dropping ?
What were the OE tyres on the R ? Ta.
Reference seat dropping - not had the issue with the original seat which I used for nearly 1,000 miles or with the high Ergo seat I used for about 2,500 miles (both used in the high position) before swapping out for the Orange bench seat.
If buying a new heated Ergo seat you could still get the tall one and use it in the lower position which puts it roughly at the same ht as the standard SAS seat in the high position - and can then of course not drop

The KTM my ride sat nav app is still pretty poor - do not know anyone who is actually using it! Would still stick with a dedicated sat nav.
Seats are still interchangeable including the heated ones - see link here https://www.gear4motorcycles.co.uk/products/ktm-heated-ergo-high-seat-1290-super-adventure-sr-21-on
Note though that if you go for the tall version and put it in the higher position you end up with a gap/ridge at the back which is far from ideal!
