    Any fix for front fender rattle? Carbon fiber?

    I have the carbon fiber side and the OEM fender top. there are little tabs that connect the two at the rear underside. the tabs aren't very big. if they pop out you might get some rattling. I used some double stick foam tape there. you'll just have to be patient if you ever have to take it...

    Thinking about exhaust options

    Ok, I will. ha ha. Welding thin metal isn't that easy IMO. As @bcar00 said. Good thing is it can leak a little and NBD. its not a gas tank. I'd get some metal the thickness of the cat box and see how you do. Then there's the type of metal. not sure what the cat is made of

    Sold my 2022 KTM 1290 SAR. No where near what I wanted. I got $10,500. They wanted to give me $6k for a trade in. I stopped by a BMW dealer in Virginia and they offered me $7k for the rocket for a trade. I laughed and said that's what I have into it in accessories. I bought a 2027 RT 1300...
