    High beam not working

    I remember seeing that same wire hanging out. Start with checking the basics like fuses, etc. and then move to the wiring with a voltmeter. I had an issue when I installed my tail tidy where the license plate light wouldn't illuminate but that was due to a poor connection. I didn't think you...

    2020 RC390 suspension troubles

    That's really weird that they're thrown on the Duke forks this late in the game (specially with no warning or documentation) when supposedly the next gen is right around the corner.

    WTB Ohlins KT303

    Care to elaborate on this? I tried to do my research before buying a shock and didn't run across any comments saying the Ohlins shock was dangerous. I did look into K-tech but they use a smaller body and smaller diameter coil shock which might work well for track duty and light riders but not...

    Valve Adjustment

    Ok thanks for the great info. The shims must be designed to wear different on car engines since anytime I've checked and adjusted clearances I've aimed for the mid range and end up using a mix of old and new shims

    Valve Adjustment

    Wouldn't you want clearances in the tighter side to mid point instead of the loose side? Shims wear so the tolerances will loosen up from doing stuff like this on car engines but have never done it for a bike.

    Vortex, Driven, Trackside Head Lift, any of these work for the RC?

    Just to close the loop on my own thread, I finally got a Vortex headlift stand after being on backorder seemingly forever. I can confirm it does indeed fit the '20 RC with stock bodywork with no problem. There is one rivet/bolt underneath the headlight that contacts the stand but it only...

    2020 RC390 suspension troubles

    Any updates on this, were you able to find out what the deal is with the forks and if there is a 2020 v1 vs V2, etc? Where you able to get the shock to fit? Even with a different airbox, that shouldn't have interfered with fitting the shock on the eyelet IMO. Fitting the reservoir is another...

    2020 RC390 suspension troubles

    I've found the engine one for the 2020 but only up to 2019 for the body. Weird that ktm wouldn't put one up considering it's practically 2021

    2020 RC390 suspension troubles

    Did you check the parts fiche to see if the part number is the same from a 2018-2019 to a 2020 or if a 2020.5 shows up?

    2020 RC390 suspension troubles

    So is there such a thing as a 2020.5 model, and if so what are the changes? I didn't think has changed considering the RC is due for a total model change

    2020 RC390 suspension troubles

    Are we talking about the KT303 shock? My '20 is all stock and I had no problem with the reservoir hose or any part of the shock contacting any part of the bike or bodywork. If the shock came with the hose oriented the wrong way, that would be a major error from Ohlins or whoever he bought the...

    2020 RC390 suspension troubles

    It's on another thread, basically you have to find a way to put and tighten the screws for the frame bracket. This has nothing to do with the shock itself fitting on the bike though, that was a breeze one you got the fender out of the way.

    2020 RC390 suspension troubles

    I put an ohlins shock on my '20, no problems at all with the exception fitting the reservoir. The actual shock goes in no problem once you've loosened the rear fender.

    Oil for my 2015 RC 390

    Are you checking the oil with the bike in the correct position (i.e. not on the side stand)? I'd go ahead and change the oil regardless since you don't really know how the bike was maintained.

    SOLD Magura hydraulic clutch conversion for RC390

    I'm interested. Is this a complete plug and play kit or what's involved?

    Rear Shock Options for 2020 RC 390?

    Yep same thing i did. Tried a couple of 5mm L wrenches and didn't have enough space to even get the shortest end of the wrench into the head of the screw.

    Rear Shock Options for 2020 RC 390?

    The bracket looks the same from your picture to the one I have, but after much trying there was no room behind the frame on mine to get any tools. Maybe they changed where they placed stuff on that side on the engine?

    Rear Shock Options for 2020 RC 390?

    I loosely installed the bracket first, moved the canister in place, then I got a T30 bit and tightened by hand using some bent nose pliers since there is no room at all for 5mm allen or anything else really. I had to keep moving the bracket so I scratched the hell out of the paint but it was a...

    Rear Shock Options for 2020 RC 390?

    Just fitted the Ohlins shock on my 2020 RC and it fits just fine, so no idea why Ohlins doesn't list it for '19-'20 bikes nor are they willing to confirm fitment. The one thing that was a royal PITA was the canister bracket; maybe that's why it says it doesn't fit? I was able to get to install...
