Take a look at the bottom triple clamp. there may be a locking mechanism for locking the forks in place. A type of theft deterrent. I think that plate replaces the locking mechanism.

robson Posted December 1, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2022 no, this plate came along in one bag with spring and bolt for side stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just take a second look at the lower triple clamp, throttle side. The 3 parts may have been packaged together for convenience, not necessarily for install location. I have one on my 2015, my previous 2003 had the hole in the clamp and a hole for the bolt but the plate was not installed.

Yes, you are right, that's the cover plate for key lock in triple clamp thanks Side stand is working now properly, need to replace also on ebolt provider cause longer spring was rubbing on. BTW looks like you have same bike, do you remember were there any free hanging wires/plugs under the tank. near the regulator? I am almost done with setup and ready to fire it up but not sure about two plugs which are not connected anywhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do have a 2015 GasGas 300 Race, the photo I pulled off the interwebs is of a 2022. But they should be very very similar. I purchased mine used, so it was all set up for competition, none of those extra blinkers etc. I will try to remember to look under the tank tomorrow, if I remember correctly there are 2 plugs that are not connected to anything. I will try to confirm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both near the regulator. I popped the fuel tank off and poked around a bit. I have not owned this bike long or did too much maintenance on it due to multiple injuries. (yes I am making excuses and whining) I did not see any unconnected plugs under the gas tank. There is quite the mess of wires under there. I must have been thinking about the 2003 when I mentioned two plugs not connected. My 2015 was produced prior to KTM buying GasGas, the 2022's are made after KTM bought GasGas. So there is a possibility of differences in wiring etc. Sorry I couldn't help with this part.

robson Posted December 3, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2022 Thanks Zippy, not a problem, will try to fire it up tomorrow and we'll see they may add some extra things after KTM took over indeed, e.g. related to euro emission BS 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
