Re: Swing arm 'spacers'?

Thanks David. Here are some pics of my spacers. I now believe the rubber spacer is the original one from the fuel tank mounting bolt. Earlier in the rebuild I recall removing the tank and then finding out some of these spacers were missing. I ordered new ones. Turns out it likely fell into the bike ...

Swing arm 'spacers'?

Hi all, I was performing some different service work on my 2013 R12RT. This required the removal of the swing arm. I followed a Haynes manual (for RT's up to 2009). Additionally, I thought I took enough pics of the teardown..... But upon reinstall / reassembly of the subframe, swing arm, rear shock,...

Re: 2013 RT front end re-assembly

I may have to inquire locally on this. Too bad I took my 06 RT to the dealership to consign sell or I'd look. My uneducated guess is US models generally have different (stricter) criteria as it relates to fuel/emissions etc so this plug is likely part of a harness but would have no function at the c...

Re: 2013 RT front end re-assembly

Thanks. yes, the wire clip connector it should be visible with fairings off unless it's tucked in somewhere. And yes, the ATS plug housing is damaged. It still fits into the ATS tightly. I'll likely secure it until I find a donor harness that I can purge a complete connector and cut and wire it in. ...

Re: 2013 RT front end re-assembly

Nailed it David. Thank you for the clip and tip. I even watched that video in the past as I used to own a 06 RT. Now next and last wiring connector. This one is right behind the right side headlight pod, very little loom attached to it so it can't go very far. RTwirei.jpg RTwire.jpg Unique connector...
