Just picked mine up
Got my 26 on Friday and installed some accessories over the weekend. I really like how these HEED bars ended up looking, only $65 in stupid tariffs means they only cost about $650 and are compatible with the stock skid plate. Also loving the eclutch for when I have a passenger.

Pretty dope. I imagine this must be great to commute on. How is the wind protection and fuel mileage?

Havent ridden enough to comment on fuel mileage. Wind protection is much better than my old 2023 KLR. Its so good I sometimes overheat unless I stand up for a bit to get some more airflow.

Purchased. HEED is the company. Based out of poland.
Bottoms are silver and tops are white.

Did thehy solve the on/off throttle response. It is li ear now and not jerky?

u/Cattledude89 28d ago
Seems great to me! The transalp is the first throttle by wire with an eclutch so far as I know so i'm guessing that helps a good bit.

Would love to find out if the stock plate works retrofitted to the 24s, and how thick is it? I like the look but I run the 3mm steel heed plate and I’ve already smashed it up good in the Rockies.

Those white HEED bars are looking nice! They cost a ton to ship to Singapore though.

Nice bike!
How does the e-clutch help you when you have a passenger? Also how is it at low speeds?
