    2017 RC390 - Temp Gauge

    Hi, Everyone. I recently purchased a used 2017 KTM RC 390 at an amazing price with only 500+- miles. With that said, I took it out in its first ride today. Five miles throughout the neighborhood, not exceeding over 25 mph in speed much at all during that time. For a couple city blocks I did...

    Engine diagnostic code P0335

    I connected a OBD2 scan tool to my 2017 RC390 and got a code P0335. After doing some research, the code is related to the crankshaft position sensor / ignition pulse generator. The engine check light was on for a while but gone after a ride, bike seems to run fine. Has anyone have experienced...

    Knocking/ Clanking Noise from engine 5-6k rpm's

    Guys, I'm posting here after too much of frustration with the KTM service for the last 3 days. Mine is a 2015 RC 390 and I'm hearing a very unusual clanking noise from the engine when I accelerate hard between 5-6k rpm's under load and vanishes off post that or less than 5k revs. This is not...

    100cc engine oil overfill

    My RC 390 only shows correct engine oil after a ride, so I ended up with 1.8l of engine oil and now it's showing higher level after a ride. I was wondering if there is a way to drain extra engine oil without opening the drain bolts and how bad is to have 100ml extra oil on RC 390?

    ECU restricted till first service?

    Considering another 390 (RC/Duke?) as the $3999 prices are just nuts on the 18s. I read a note or heard in a upyoutube vid that th ECU was restricted to lower RPM limiter until the 600 mile service, pretty much handcuffing you to the dealer. Is this true? I was planning a fly n ride kinda...

    Jumping into neutral from all gears

    Went out for a ride around post and all was good. Then as I'm heading back home the bike just starts throwing itself into neutral and then acts like it down shifts then picks back up. Then it starts doing it repeatedly in quick succession. Feels like I'm riding a bucking bronco. Tried to ride in...

    Luimoto seat

    I ride my rc390 to work sometimes and it’s about a 30 minute ride on a good day so when I say a video on YouTube about a seat cover that make a bike way more comfortable I was intrigued has anyone dealt with luimoto on their rc or any other bike for that matter

    Columbia River Gorge Oregon

    I'm 16, and I've had my 2017 RC for 3 weeks and I got 1,000 miles on it. I'm in the heart of the Columbia River Gorge and this bike is great for Canyon carving. I love it but I'm wondering if sport bikes in general, because of the riding position, causes neck aches. if I'm on a long ride I...

    Any 390 riders in the NorCal area?

    I'm a pretty new rider (only had it for a few days) and I'm curious if there are any other rc390 riders up near the Sacramento area. If so I think it'd be awesome to meet up and ride together.

    Chicken Dinner

    I just won an RC390 in a raffle. Now I have three bikes and that's one too many. I'm going to need to sell one and that makes me kinda sad. The KTM has been a blast to ride so far but reading through this forum gets me concerned about reliability and the problems I'll face as a try to turn build...

    Hello from Missouri

    I'm new to the forum, however, I've already managed to find lots of useful information. As of right now, I actually own a 2015 KTM RC8R. Unfortunately, I wrecked it a little over a month ago and did $15,000 worth of damage to the sucker, now I'm waiting for her to salvage out which leaves me...

    Impromptu ride

    So, met up with 2 other forum members for an impromptu ride today. It was the RC390 Club Ride! (You gotta understand, out here in rural BC it's not like there are a ton of these bikes...we figure we represented 3 of the 4 R390s in the whole area). We had a good ride--lots of fun and zero...
