    what do you mean by "plastic tank cover" & "tank"?
    Day before Yesterday, i got hit by a stone which came flying from the car's tyre (construction going on in the service lane of the highway). Got a scratch & dent on the Orange Colored plastic tank cover (right side). When called the service station to get the touching done, they told me that they didn't have the color ready & have to prepare it. I am skeptical about them doing good touching so as of now keeping the bike as it is. Will probably put some radium/ carbon stickers if the color keep coming off!

        I got two quotes for tank cover- the orange part.and the tank is the petrol tank inside tank cover.

                There are 2 things which matters the most in a drag race -
                1. The Machine
                2. The person who's driving that Machine.

                So even if you are aware of CBR & Duke, You don't know whoz driving them. Wait for more reviews... But in any case, a couple of seconds here & there wont make a difference!
                Unless you bought Duke just to beat the CBR :P

                  Not surprising actually, the baby Duke's shorter gearing makes for explosive acceleration and effortless in city riding.

                  But the CBR250R, apart from extra 50 cc's has also got more "Torque" to play around with. Coupled with an aerodynamic full fairing and comparitively taller gearing, the CBR250R is expected to eventually overtake the 200 Duke on a drag strip.

                  About the R15... well, its a great track tool, but then one has to ultimately accept that "There is no replacement for displacement".. at least when putting "Torque" on the back wheel is concerned.

                      I have seen 6 ft dudes on the 200 Duke.. and from what I have seen 6 ft probably is the upper limit for anyone on the 200 Duke.. any taller and the legs/knees start to foul with the shape of the fuel tank.

                          I visited the service center in Hyderabad... when asked about the Motul oil for KTM, I was told by the concerned mechanic that 300V (Welcome to Motul) is the best, followed by 7100 (Welcome to Motul)...

                            Can you tell us what is the throttle position when turning? Fully off, blips? or slightly on to keep the revs a little high?


                            I am used to reducing the throttle to off when I take U-Turns, and it stalls, at times I have to suddenly put my right foot down. Someone earlier posted an overdrive Duke 200 review, according to them this is a known issue in Single Fuel Injected bikes. Do you think there might be a fault in my Duke and can be fixed? This is annoying at times.

                            It is true. The guy riding the Duke is wearing bell bottoms, these are known to increase drag :P

                            A KIIRUS remapped Duke might beat the CBR as it is.

                                Yes..cool review. covered most of the points. As the tester says in the end, it's really difficult to pick the negatives on this bike; only a nitpicker might be able to say something.
                                Never argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and then beat you with experience.
