^ ^ we have a temp of 40'C now and the engine is getting heated within 5 mins
dont know what to do
cant even ride the bike

some one please help me out

and is this the coolant which all were talking about , which was used in some of joel's customized bike i think an R17 of abhimanyu ?
is this the same coolant ?

I have exactly the same queries with this bike. Somebody please throw some light on these questions.

Rest all questions cant be answered by me coz running in not completed yet.u seem to be confused between duke nd cbr.

@inder.cool checked the prices on the phone today in Singapore,

Here's the price list if you dare:-
1)Tank LEDs>$237
2)CrashPads Front or Rear Per Pair>$66
3)Tail Tidy Kit(Not the RG one)>$479
4)Front Wave Rotor Disc(Orange)>$457
5)Orange Anodized Handle Bar>$220
6)Front Disc Brake Reservoir CNC Aluminum machined Orange color>$99
7)Rear Disc Brake Reservoir Cover Orange>$77
8)Headlight mask> $457

>>Consider that the crash pads that cost Rs.2220/- in India cost [email protected]= Rs.2798.40 So its 21% costlier than in India...so if you apply the same idea to the other parts, they aren't gonna be any cheaper in India WHEN they arrive!!! I was really upset to find out these ridiculous prices!!!
@Shubz. No don't worry bro it's not a bother :-) In fact thanks for reminding me!!! I'll try heading to the shop by Saturday to find out about the grips, I hope they're ATLEAST priced reasonably :-s

gonna check for paddock stands and even crash pads for front fork and swing arm for the KTM at the local bike stores this Saturday too!

BTW! KTM 125 Duke cost Singapore $12,000/- On Road here!!! @Rs.42.40 DO THE MATH :-o

Thanks Joshzma SGD is 42.40 .. too expensive.. I think UK is a better option.. or get stuff custom made in India itself...

Yeah its very expensive here!!! I might just pick up something from that store since I'm here anyway!!! But what could I buy from that list hmmmmmm...

My friend UK is worse than Singapore!!! Getting it custom made is easy, but we first need to find someone willing to actually put down that money to replicate the plastic parts like the headlight mask and the Knuckle guards... :-D

Are there only the 8 items you listed? Anything else you see there?

Helmet

Hi, what is the model of your SOL helmet... it looks cool... I could not get a suitable one to go with my Duke, so I got it custom painted... pics attached

Here's what I have put together from the following two websites:

Engine Ice Coolant

Not a problem Bro. Since, I initiated the whole chat, I shall take the liberty to answer your question yes it is premixed. I believe you can order it online and get it shipped directly to your place. Although I have not dealt with them directly but I believe if they receive a bulk order the price will be reduced

You don't need to open the whole engine to fill it.. Just need to drain out the current coolant, need to flush out any remaining coolant using the coolant flush process mentioned in the engine ice website and then just simply fill it up with engine ice coolant.

Regarding the 2nd question I believe it is pretty obvious with mentioning R16, Joel and Abhimanyu31. The R170 logs posted on his thread doesnot belong to Abhimanyu but the ride belongs to another friend of mine who went ahead with stage 3 mod on his R15. Abhimanyu31 owns an R16 i.e. Stage 2 mods from Joel, Race Concepts.

I hope this clears out any confusion. Regarding ownership experience with engine ice as I have repeated earlier, one has to get in touch with Abhimanyu31 for the same as he has been the longest user of the product and swears by its performance.

Engine Oil

Hi, I have chosen to go with Motul 300V 4T Factory Line 15W50 for oil change during my first service, which is approaching soon... as per my understanding, the difference between 15W50 and 20W50 (OEM suggested) does not impact much... but 300V is technically a better oil then Motul 7100

Anybody thinks otherwise?

KTM recommended oil grade is 20W50 Scbra... so many of us have stuck with that and used 7100 .. just worried about warranty If something goes wrong, the ASC guys shouldn't give the oil as a reason for witholding warranty ... better check with the ASC guys before you buy 300V

Not sure whether the Showroom people maintains the Coolant amount properly, but still going below MIN within 3 days is a bit abnormal. Engine ICE costs about 1300 INR for 1.8 liter whereas the default Motul one costs about 300 - 330 for 1 litre. You can topup or change the Coolant anytime. But never mix different types of Coolant. Though the RVMs are not the best in terms of usefulness, but trust me, a little adjustment of the nuts holding the RVMs will make it decent. Only angle adjust won't do.

I'm sure if this is a crack you will get this replaced or maybe repaired. And surely under warranty. I don't think anybody faced or mentioned this kind of issue yet on this thread.

Nope; Engine Coolant is like Engine oil, you need to topup often and sometimes change too. So, noway you can save money here.

I don't think most of the Duke owners have munched enough miles to answer these kind of queries. Your questions are something that a 5000 KMs ownership review post can clarify only. Even though you post it in the Which Bike section I doubt you'll get these answers soon.

You won't feel any less heat after topping up the coolant. See, the thing works somehow like this - Engine crosses some threshold temperature and the radiator fan starts - coolant draws away heat from the engine to get this below the threshold level - temp comes below the cutoff and fan stops. But in any case the wind pushed by the fan will draw the heat from engine and reach your legs. Also the engine oil is never a culprit here. Not sure why the mechanic reduced the idle RPM also. Please change it to the recommended level soon.

As I have said, you'll have to wait for a couple of days, I guess.

Don't expect any bargain price from KTM. Actually me and some other owner from Kolkata are very interrested for the immobiliser thing, but the price shown in a Powerparts slide by the KTM management was around 18000(as far as I can recall) We were shocked!! I have a better plan now. As the KTM guyz won't allow any aftermarket ones, I'll not go for the immobiler; rather tip some local boys 10 -20 Rs to keep an eye on my bike while I'm away.

I'm sure the ASC guyz will think otherwise. From my experiences and stories heard - they love to stick to what is recommended. BTW Motul 300V is better suited for higher displacement high power bikes. For Duke even the 7100 will work absolutely fine without fail.

Though theoritically 15WX is a substitute of 20WX but the ASC guyz surely can delay or reject your claim for warranty if they want. So, don't do that in front of them or by informing them. In case situation arises and you need to file claim change it to Motul and present the Bike to them.
