Well, I just got my 2004 KTM 950 Adventure S and rode it home from Texas to New Jersey which was about 1900 miles. I did this in two days which is a personal best for me. My confidence in the bike was never questioned or even a concern. The overall fit and finish of this orange beast is fantastic. V-twin power was an absolute delight. From what I've been told the stock seat is horrible but breaks in after a bit. To tell you the truth, my butt broke in first and that seat still hurt. Anyway, I love this bike and now it's my turn to make it better. I will be adding custom accessories from around the world to my bike and then offering reviews of each item and then with some luck, I can offer them to you.  Each item is field tested by yours truly or by other hardcore (love that word, it sounds so serious :) 950/990 riders.

Blanking Plates:  These "Blanking Plates" are needed after removing the SAS system on your 950. 

What is the SAS system? The Secondary Air System (SAS). This system consists of a Vacuum Valve, and reed valves that allow filtered air to be injected into the exhaust ports on the head. The theory is that is will cause un-spent gasses to burn, resulting in fewer emissions.

The reason why this should be considered for removal is that while it causes fuel to burnt, unfortunately, by definition it also causes a lean condition in the exhaust, and makes the bike pop on deceleration (which I hate). It is also just more crap to malfunction on you while you are out adventuring (one of the fittings on the SAS valve attached to the rear of the air-box is very small, and very delicate and prone to break).  Click on the picture to view a larger image.
