I have medium rear (140mm) and soft front Dunlop slicks. I ride in B group and use tire warmers. How many track days would these last on intermediate pace? Does it make sense to use them till the wear bars?
I know slicks are overkill, but I use them anyway for better grip.
How's everyone?
My name is Le, recently bought a well-sorted RC390 Cup for track days.
Looking forward to learning from all.
I'm located in TX.
Cheers,
JUST PURCHASED MY KTM FEW WEEKS AGO LOVING IT TO DEATH. working on my mod list for track days. so ill be reading as much as i can on this so far loving the platform. ill upload pics later
This is a complete kit with a formula390 mounting kit.
Setup for rider weight of about 180 with gear
Comes with TWO shock cores. I have two because I bought them used. I have only used one for 5 track days and it is functioning great, but condition is otherwise unknown, that is why it comes...
wotcha, 58 year old veteran here, just bought a 390 to convert to a dedicated track day bike, been lurking for a while on this great forum and you finally persuaded me to splash out and join the gang! I already own a 690 duke and a 690 smc-r supermoto but wanted to get back to 'the good old...
Guys, what is this for ?
KTM Store :: KTM Street Powerparts :: RC390 :: R-Parts (Street) :: KTM HANDLEBAR STOP PROTECTOR SET
are they really necessary for track days and racing ?
Live down under in Melbourne. Got my RC back in August. Had a little YZF-R15 150cc which wouldn't do 100km/h up a hill or in to a wind. 100 or 110km/h being the legal limit over here. Was saving for something like a Street triple as the next post-learner's but saw a dealer throwing out their...
I'm a long time rider and starting to look into track days. I've got a handful of first gen GSXRs and a 93 900ss, some of which will probably be sold to make room for an RC390, maybe two if the wife stays as interested as she looks. The intent will be to use RCs for track days only but we'll see...
So besides Jeff and Edward, who else from the forum will be at COTA this weekend for the RideSmart track days? Looking forward to meeting more forum members and doing rider support at COTA. Just wondering who all will be there. :)
Big note on Red Racing Parts
I ordered this screen and a Domino choke lever assembly from them on March 23rd 2016, and they charged me for the pleasure. Today it is May 26th (65 days later) I regularly email these guys about my order--I still have not received any shipments from them! Their...
Hi, I'm looking to get an RC 390, so I logged in here to find good info an advice.
My new bike should be street/track days. Maybe some amateur racing in the future.
I've been riding for some years. Starting out with track days.

I'm not sure where to place this Thread, so please redirect it to the best possible location. We will have the KTM Demo Truck at our dealership on April 29th. We are Commonwealth Motorcycles in Louisville KY. The truck will have 1290's, 390's etc. We will be doing demo rides all day. Everyone is...
Just got it two days ago, initial impressions are very good, I've done two rides on it so far, both around the hills, and it actually goes quite well, even obeying the 7.5k run-in rev limit, I don't know what 7.5k to 10k will bring but up to 7.5k there's a decent amount of pull if you fully open...
