No man. I stay in koparkhairane..not far from seawoods. The group is a great idea. Do we know how many guys are here on xbhp from Navi Mumbai at least? That would be start.

I didnt check the power in specific rev ranges but the roll-ons and overall power delivery was much better than stock and it pulled all the way to redline really fast. For 10k i found it quite good. Kiirus guys also re-mapped one of my friend's Getz 1.3 some time ago and they did an excellent job on it too.

Theres nothing wrong in trying. Try that Karizma sprocket.

How much did u pay for Duke clutch plates? Arent they same as P220 clutch plates?

The Kirus map is way smoother and powerful than the stock. I have ridden the Kirus tuned duke of Abhishek(Kirus founder)with rev limiter set to 11500 rpm and it was butter smooth in the initial rpms.Almost like a Honda.Also it wheelied like a dream the one time I tried. Couldn't take it to speeds as it was a neighboorhood road, but he told me touches 145 odd. I would certainly go for it sometime in next year!!
PS : the same bike is now lying around in seawoods svc waiting for insurance approval after having met a very damaging accident. I hope Abhishek is alright though.

Hmm...The 50kmpl quoted by me in one of my previous posts may have been a bit optimistic surely. But I did get around 40 riding at 100 odd on the mumbai-pune highway recently. May be my memory is deserting me!!

here goes :

Consumables( Prices include VAT)

Air Filter element : 274.50

Friction plates : 772.50
pressure plate :40.44 * 5 +25.28 (VAT) = 227.48

I had the same situation few months back. Got my handlebar changed(you need to change only if it is bent too much and the bike is unsteerable after minor handlebar adjustments).
They are not going to repaint it to orange. They normally have only black paint(that too is not good). If you change your bar, then grips would be changed(both so extra cost). If it's not torn much you can live with that? Repiant the scrapped cluth lever to blck. They'll do it for free.
Handlebar replacement will cost you around Rs 850-900 + cost of both grips extra.

Not sure if p220 plates are same man!!

OK, I'm convinced!
I'll go for it as soon as I can leave the bike to rest for 2-3 days needed for shipping and receiving the ECU from Kiirus (which might be next week), and of course when I figure out how to take out the ECU.
Does anyone know how to remove it and put it back in?

I was also thinking of putting a smaller rear sprocket, and have already asked the SVC in Bangalore last week if they have 42t one (the guy in charge there told me 2 months ago they will have the original KTM 42t sprocket in stock within few weeks, but nothing till now), which would boost the top speed for some 3kmh. Not much of a change but if it should be original KTM sprocket and change done in SVC.
Foreign Dukes actually come with 42t rear sprocket, btw, where's Indian ones are 43t.

I was also thinking of putting Karizma's rear sprocket, I've heard it's matching. I don't know how much of a change in pick up it would cause though, if Duke would still be a "Duke".
I read some time ago on other forum that a guy in Indonesia or Malaysia put a 33t rear sprocket on his Duke, and that he liked it a lot, much more relaxed at higher speeds but losing out on pickup. But I think that's way too much.

I'd just like to increase some top end, or in fact be able to cruise at 120-130 kmh while not straining the engine too much. But I would also like to keep the crazy pickup. Not sure if both is possible, but I think 30t sprocket might be OK, especially with Kiirus ECU.
Just a change from 33t to 30t rear sprocket would bring an increase in top speed of around 10 kmh.

Doga, maybe you try first and then others who're interested will follow if it turns out to be good.

Yeah, maybe 50 kmpl is little too high, but I don't think it would be much less if riding at 60-70 kmh, if at all.
I think the console shows pretty correct mileage if riding at a constant speed on a highway, and one can always try for himself if riding at constant speed for some 10 min...

Thank you so much buddy

A friend of mine has got his rear sprocket replaced with the 220s, which is 38t, if I'm not wrong, there's a considerable difference in the pulling power than the stock bike, it's nowhere as crazy but at high RPMs the engine "feels" relaxed, I was able to do 130ish in the 5th gear.
From what I've seen, P220s, P200s and Karizmas rear sprocket is a direct fit with minor mod to the chain.

P.S. That bike didn't have its ECU flashed to the new one and 2 links from the chain had to be cut.

Cheers

hi,

I want to get hold of this rim sticker. Can anyone tell me the cost and where in Delhi can i get one?

Interesting thoughts about Kiirus map. But i think i don't want to invest any money into the bike as i plan to sell it when the 390 hits the showrooms. If i get a remap that would just be a 10k sunk cost :P

Guys please help,Something happens on my Duke as well when shifting from 3rd to 4th, either the gear gets stuck and gives a bad Vrrooom or sometimes there is no gear indication and I may have to give a little pressure for the gears to click into plase.I suspect that the thread on the shifter might have worn out or something is loose.Any suggestion guys ? I have done 14K KM and the mechanic did mention that I would have to change my spocket soon which I will be doing in the next few days.

Has happened with me many times. The gear indicator going blank and the bike giving a bad vroom. I guess the duke gearbox is not the best around. The positive feel of gears slotting in which was there before is gone too. I guess what you can do is clean the shifter(by taking it out and then spray some Wd40 on it) I have to do it after the monsoons yet.
Do keep in mind that all the slush, lube etc gets splashed on it by the chain

Can WED40 be used as a degrease to clean up all that grease mess ? I havent tried it yet .But thanks for your suggestion I will give it a shot

yes.You can spray lots of WD40 on it. Then wipe clean with a cloth. keep on doing until you reach the metal beneath the muck. Now spray WD40 all over again and reinstall it.
