Hey everyone!
New to the forum, thanks for allowing me to post!
I am 5'4 and I tippytoe on the bike. Some people tell me this is OK and others tell me its not a good idea. The dealership I bought it from recommended to adjust the spring which will lower the height but I am worried that it will...
Sooo... It happened.
There are bubbles coming up in the rad and the bike gets hot in a hurry.
While I have the heart open, what else should I do?
Should I change the rings and chain?
The list so far is pretty short, just change the gasket, check valve clearance.
Any advice is appreciated!
Got my bike apart today to do a handful of mods including swapping to the SPAL fan. A couple of observations and a question...
My 2018 doesn’t have the fan shroud I’ve seen on the earlier bikes, when did they change, 2017? Did they also upgrade the fan making the SPAL swap not necessary?
Seems...
I was wondering if it was at all possible to change the front of the RC to more of a street fighter type setup up front with a big round headlight, and maybe change the tach and speedo to smaller streamlined units, is that possible at all with the RC's front cluster setup?
Is it necessary to change engine oil every two or three track days? My bike has Motul 300V fully synthetic oil and I was wondering if it's ok to change it every 4000 miles.
Have my first service coming up and I'm trying to save a little money by changing the oil in myself. I was thinking of getting this kit https://www.ktm-parts.com/90238015010KIT.html for 50 bucks but I don't know.... the dealer says they charge me $70 for an oil change so that's a whopping $20...
Hi all, wondering if anyone has experienced this problem;
Sometimes, not often, my bike doesn't display which gear it is in, it just has like two dashes (middle of the number 8 in digital display). I try to change gears and the dashes flash on and off a bit. I can still change gears but...
Hi all,
Has anyone tried or is running the KTM Powerparts shift lever KTM Store :: KTM Street Powerparts :: 390 DUKE :: Foot Rest :: KTM POWERPARTS SHIFT LEVER FOR 390 ? I see that it has three different positions of adjustment for the step plate and was wondering if these adjustments result in...
A couple pieces of information that covers several areas. First for all of those who have asked the new high mount Ti akra system on the SSP300 is not and will not be offered as a KTM powerparts exhaust system, in the near future. There is limited quantity for the SSP kits being sold and only...
This is my engine level after first servicing oil change. it barely hitting minimum level is it normal guys? or i they didn't change oil?
I have attached image please help me out.
So I missed the deadline for winterizing my bike when the tomatoes hit the first frost. Now all the tomatoes at the supermarket taste like water packets -- Yuck!
Today in Portland Oregon there was a chance to ride! 50 and cloudy!!! I bought Dewault socket sets and allen sets from home depot 0oo...
Put money down on a 2017 RC390 but wanted to know if California’s strict emissions standards change the performance aspects of the bike. Or anything thing else for that matter? If yes can it be removed?
Just introducing myself. Found a great deal on a leftover 2016 model and currently working on the break-in miles. Once done (probably this weekend), I'll be installing a Powercommander, auto-tune, and quickshifter while doing the oil change (possibly an exhaust too). Love the bike so far...
Hi all, I know this is a topic that has been beaten to death on this forum, but I can't find the answer to this particular question. I did my first oil change recently. I had a bottle of Motorex 15W-50 4T Semi Synthetic at home weeks before my oil change, and when I went into the shop for an...
PLEASE don't beat me up on this one........ (I'm new to KTM, and sport bikes in general)- How often are people changing the oil on these bikes? I know what the manual says, but that seems like a REALLY bad idea, and it's geared towards street riders only. I did the initial 600 mile oil change...
