    New uploads to my YouTube channel

    I uploaded a couple more videos to my channel today. The first one is about my 2016 KTM RC 390. The second one is a remix of BIKEP♡RN | lil_hanne video. I was watching Transporter 3 starring Jason Statham (one of my favorite actors) a couple days ago and the song “Set It on Fire” during the...

    New uploads to my YT channel

    Hello all, I’ve been toying around with a video editing software just to see what I can do and not do. Pushing the boundaries if you will. I put together a couple presentations (can’t call them videos I guess) just to try it out. These are a couple of the very first iterations of these...

    2016 RC390 color names

    Thank you Emu83. I wish you didn't go through all that trouble. I was looking for the "Names" of the colors. I wasn't looking for the color codes. I put together a presentation and wanted the color names. I posted the presentation already. I just had to go with the plain jane color names...

    2016 RC390 color names

    Does anyone know what KTM calls the colors on the 2016 RC390 other than just Orange, White and Black? Is there a specific name for each color? For instance is the white called Ceramic White and so on? Sorry, I accidently posted this question in the RC200 area. Whoops.

    Check those bolts!

    Just a Heads UP. An addition to this loose bolt thread. I pulled the lower cowlings to change the oil and the radiator spacer fell out on the floor. The spacer bolt had vibrated out and thankfully left the spacer in the cowling. Item number 15 below. It's not critical but there are mounting...

    You can get OM direct from KTM. Type in "RC 390 2017" in the search box. There you can get a PDF OM in almost any language you wish. If you wish here's a direct link to the 2017 OM PDF itself.

    Engine smoke on startup

    I'm convinced the RC has too much oil in the crank case.

    Engine smoke on startup

    Okay, started the RC up this afternoon and no smoke. If there was it was very very little. Checked the airbox drain as well, nothing, bone dry. One thing I did notice today. Condensation coming from the weep hole at the bottom of the exhaust pipe. Now, I live in a pretty arid climate but the...

    Engine smoke on startup

    You could very well be right. I may have too much oil. I will check the airbox drain today for sure!! Yes, I did check the airbox drain Spring of last year but did not check it Spring this year I was in the middle of a move. Now that things have calmed down a bit I have more time to do that.

    Engine smoke on startup

    ReidMcT - Yes, I do check the oil on a regular basis and I do have enough oil showing in the sight glass per owner's manual (maybe too much I think at times). The smoke is whitish blue (more white than blue) and yep it's smoke. I can smell and see it on initial startup. This has only happened a...

    Engine smoke on startup

    Hey guys. 2016 RC with less than 3,000 mile on it. A couple times now when I start the RC after I haven't ridden in a week or so it smokes on startup until it warms up. This has happened twice now, but not in a row. One day I started it to ride and no smoke a couple weeks later I start it to...

    Check those bolts!

    Just wanted to do a follow-up. Yep the same bolt was loose on my bike as well. I did tighten it but didn't put any Loctite on it yet. Once again thank you for bringing this issue to our attention! I wouldn't have thought this bolt would come loose as it did.
