Afraid of the unknown? Fear no more! The 701 Xplorer comes with two fuel pumps manually selectable.
We have added the OEM Keihin rally pump complete with a fuel warning light to ensure that you will get to the next resting point whatever the circumstances.
An optional third pump can be installed, ready to roll if things get tough! We even went as far as researching a fuel pump motor that we can guarantee for life (available as an upgrade).
Pre-assembled fuel lines with factory KTM CPC quick connect/disconnect couplings and dual anodised billet non-return valves. We went a step further and used two extra fuel filters in the fuel lines for your safety. This gives you the ability to donate fuel to a fellow rider through the innovative piping system.
Afraid that your fuel lines will get hot? We took care of that. Heat shield sleeves are installed in all the critical areas to ensure that your bike will stay cool whatever the weather conditions!
Whether you are out racing in the dunes or simply enjoying your trip to the unknown, allow us to take care of your comfort.
A dedicated ABS seat pan with a molded foam and ultra grip cover will ensure that you arrive comfy in your destination.
Made from high quality stainless steel the exhaust header, with optional rally racing silencer.
Want to keep your stock exhaust or already have an after market silencer? Fear no more! We routed the exhaust header so that the stock silencer position can be kept.
CFCP is a small company located in Greece and we trust no one else for all our Carbon Fiber parts. We are proud to have such a skid plate on our kit.
Ground clearance is maximized and you get enhanced protection of the suspension linkage. The skid plate brackets are composed of Aluminum and Stainless steel and with addition of Antivibration Dampeners your frame is protected in case of a violent impact.
The tank brackets have been design to keep your frame intact, allowing you to safely return the vehicle to its original state or even get TUV approval in certain countries.

What you see here is a spider (or radar) chart. We are comparing the OEM bike vs different Aurora Layouts that we have in our range. There are six areas of interest.
1. Ergonomics. This is your instrument layout. Are they in a better position? Easier to see? Higher is better.
2. Fuel Capacity. Straight forward. Higher means more fuel!
3. Protection. This is protection from the elements and is based on our own tests and feedback from customers. The highr the protection, the higher the number.
4. Lights. OEM lights are fully legal. In our kits not only you upgrade the lights, but you can install full off-road LED units for max performance.
5.Weight. That's a necessary evil. We remove and we add parts on the bikes and the net effect is sometimes a heavier bike, or in the case of our Superlight kit a lighter bike.
6. Racing. Get ready to race! Higher is better.

Manufacturing
More durability using factory KTM parts, increased fuel range using two front KTM Factory tanks with dual fuel pump setup and the world winning Rally Factory look using the aerodynamic clear fairing as used by the Dakar winning KTM bikes.
The legendary head clamp!
One of the most important parts on the bike. Holding the navigation tower and electrics. When collaborating with winning teams, we know that failure is not an option. Aurora Rally Equipment has been active in the Rally scene since 2013 and our equipment has won multiple times in the mighty Africa Eco Race and in Dakar. We have always used data logging equipment to help us understand the forces involved during riding and crashing.
Using temperature loggers and three axis accelerometers on Rally bikes, we designed a pioneering head clamp like no other. Machined out of a solid block of aluminium, using the stock mounting points on the bike, our innovative design uses a third anchor point to increase strength and stability. We are proud that since its birth, there are no failures. Check our ‘Tech’ section for photos and testimonials of people who crashed!
Crashing
The 690 rally tower is one of our first designs after we got involved in Dakar. Since 2015 this tower has received multiple updates both in design, materials and manufacturing methods. All the parts have a very specific target: to protect your instruments and allow you to reach your destination. To that end, the tower will deform heavily (instead of breaking or cracking). The different materials (stainless steel, aluminum - two different alloys) and polymer will make sure that you can reach your destination and take action there.

Disclaimers
Despite every effort to provide accurate images of each product’s color and design, actual colors and design may vary slightly, due to different device screen settings, the lighting in the installation location, slight differences in product finishes over time and other factors. Please contact Aurora Rally Equipment should you wish to confirm your final choices.
TURN INDICATORS IN USA
Due to different regulations in the US, the OEM front turn indicators are bigger and will not fit in the available space on the tower. It is advisable to buy a smaller LED set.
PARTS THAT NEED TO BE MODIFIED TO THE POINT BEYOND RETURN
- We recommend to trim the side frame covers. To revert back to the OEM, we can supply the covers when you order the kit.
