Are there any changes that have been made to the bike which wouldn’t allow older models aftermarket parts to fit on it? For example, would a frame slider from a 2017 model still bolt onto the 2020 model? Thanks.

Great video and happy to see a few wheelies. My local dealer quoted $ 13,500.00. Yes the 15 tooth counter sprocket is the hot set up.
Thank you! That,s not too bad at all! Yeah I think that's the route i'm going go
This is the only bike i have owned that i felt didn’t need a steering damper, the front end feel is delicious!!!!!
Right!
You should go for motul oil 7100 10w50 (winter) 10w60 (summer) is way better that oem oil in my opinion.
Interesting! Ill look into it!
$30 for a 15t counter sprocket. And you can still use factory chain. Don't wait, its the best single thing you can do to a 701.
That's what I'm thinking 💪🏽 it's on the way haha
Is that bigger or smaller than the factory sprocket?
Just picked up a 2020 690 smcr for 13.5 out the door and worth every single penny. and $38 a month for geico full coverage.
