Well it takes some time to get used to the gear box, especially you are not too used to bikes, that could be the reason. But, be gentle with gear shifts, if at any point of time, you feel the gear is stuck, don't kick it hard.. just slightly release the clutch, re-engage it and then try, it always works.Originally posted by devesh38 View PostLet's bring down the monster of corruption to it's knees.. please visit http://ipaidabribe.com/Comment

Protection Film
[QUOTE=Straight to auto-service after the formalities & prayers to get the paint protection film on the tank & front fender also got the chain adjusted.[/QUOTE]
Sams, When you say auto-service, you mean the KTM service centre, or is it the name of a stickering shop? I've been looking all over for exactly what you've mentioned here. Also how long did it take before they were done with it? Thanks.

Where did you put this in bangalore ??

It is a protection layer a thin but strong sheet of transparent sticker covering the area where the tank pad goes only difference being it covers more surface than a tank-pad will. Didn't like how a tank pad will reduce the orange on the tank so went for 3M PPF
Edit: IIRC there is CBR owner who has put a pic of the same in the ownership thread.Comment

and it would be good if some senior bikes(not with the age :P :P) ...can tell use which is the best
1) engine oil
2) coolant
3) chain lubrications .....Comment

Since the time you posted these pics I noticed it had happened to me too and My coolant level is at just about 2mm above the MIN marker its no longer in between MIN & MAX so its getting over somehow and that too in just 2 days??? Did you get someone to check on that? And can we just replace the coolant by taking off the cap and refilling? or do we need to do a drain of the coolant?Originally posted by spiralbrain View PostSpeed, it seems to me, provides the one genuinely modern pleasure.Comment

Dukes celebrating HOLI by spilling coolants eh ??...looks like they love INDIA...

Do you see where it is dripping from? I have not been able to locate it. Havent ridden the bike since the spill. Didn't go out today yet as its holi. As someone mentioned the level should be a few mm above minimum so yours should perhaps stop leaking. If it does not then there might be a problem. Yes you can top up coolant by just opening the cap and adding some more. Just make sure the bike isn't hot when you do it and also keep your hands clear of it as coolant is poisonous.Originally posted by joshzma225 View PostComment

i think the most important thing is that you are not overheating the bike if you take it straight for a longer trip. means you should have a 10 minutes break after every half hour or so to cool the engine down. the timer on the console helps in this case.Originally posted by pratikm87 View Post
today more time so this is what i followed, after checking the net and seeing what other riders have posted:
- warm engine up properly (indication is given on the console)
- after that, do some short bursts to 7500 rpm (i actually did some above, following the motoman advice)
- change gears and vary rpm most of the time
- use full rpm band in all gears
- engage all gears properly
- take a short break after every 25-30 minutes to allow the engine to cool down
- be aware that it takes 200 kms for new tyres to break in
- be aware that brakes take around 200-300 kms to bed in too
