    Hi guys, I picked up a 2015 RC390 used last week, and had my first ride this weekend. I sold my 2001 SV650s last year, and have been without since summer. Great first weekend!

    Stock bike backfire/popping?

    The last two times that I've taken my bike out, I've been getting a lot of backfire/popping from the exhaust. It's usually when I'm getting off the freeway and rev matching/downshifting, not really when I just ride around the city. It's never done this before and the bike is completely stock in...

    New owner from Long Beach, CA!

    What's up everyone! My name's Sacape2 (Spanish speakers will catch this one lol) I just took delivery of a brand new 2015 RC 390 and enjoyed a nice cruise along the coast from the dealership to home, and I love this bike! I came from a R6 and CBR600RR so this bike is much smaller than what I'm...

    Hi from Vancouver, Tuneability of RC390

    Hi everyone, I am looking to get one of these stunning bikes. I am interested in how much one can tune these bikes compared to a R3 or similar. I cant find many options for aftermarket performance parts online or on the forum. Whats the most people can expect out of these bikes and possibly...

    Still waiting on a ride

    Hey guys and gals, I'm new around here. I've been riding a while but I don't have a 390 yet. My main ride is a Triumph Tiger, but I'm looking to get an RC390 to race in a production class this year. I'm in CA so it's novice AFM if you're from the area. This is going to be my 2nd year racing but...

    Revs STILL Surge!

    I've owned my RC390 for one year now and loved every second of it, so much so that I'm going to keep the bike even after getting my full license. As much as I enjoy the bike its the little imperfections in it that drive me insane! The first things I did to the bike was fix EVERY little rattle...

    Hi everyone, So I got my KTMRC390 a few weeks ago. Already put 1000km on it, did first oil change at 600km. About to do the 1000km service. Been riding since I was 16 (now 34). Started on a Yamaha dt50, then had 125s, VFR400, ZX6R, VStrom 650 and stopped riding for a few years. Since...

    PCV experience (from commonwealth motorcycles)

    To cut a long story short, I had money that had to be spent for Christmas. So I bought the PCV from Commonwealth and asked for the appropriate map to be loaded. My bike wasn't running poorly - in fact with the exception of a couple of small flat spots - it ran great. Sure it surged at low revs...

    Motorcycle BackPack?

    I'm in the market for a nice backpack. Are there any that allow for the speed hump on my Jacket to stick out still? I have a photography backpack I use now and it seems to squish my hump every time I ride, so it doesn't look as good as it used to.

    Does dealer have to ride new motorcycle?

    Does a dealer have to ride a new motorcycle before selling it (i.e. some kind of law) or can one just buy a crated motorcycle (i.e. one with 0.0 miles on it)? In other words can I just buy it off the floor and do the setup at home?

    I'm in the market for a new bike. Riding about 3 years now so I'd like to think I know more than a new rider. Started with a Ninja 250, moved up to a F4i then swtiched up for a Zuki Boulevard.

    New to forum - uk based

    Newbie to the forum. Hi all! I'm seriously considering downsizing to the RC390. It seems to be almost perfect, just needs more power. Going from 130hp to 40hp is going to be a bit of a shock. I know ongoing development of this engine will I'm sure produce more ponies. These remind me of the...
