Re: KTM 200 Duke
My duke bike odo is 55000.
Recently changed entire rear mono shock of my duke 200.
Now I'm facing little wobble during speed like 70-80 kmph. I'm observing this now, I guess it is nothing to do with new mono shock.
I can see 2 wheel weights (greyish block of weight) on front rim (one on each side), but in rear rim I can see only one, I never observed if it was there on another side. Is this an issue?
Please let me know your inputs.
I ll try to diagnose myself before going to SVC.
TIA

Re: KTM 200 Duke
Probably a bust water pump seal or a faulty head gasket. The coolant overflow tube passes underneath the tank cover and is routed towards the left side of the tank cover. The dust you see on those two allen bolts is nothing to worry. Just dust residue. Now, the problem can be air in the coolant system or the engine is slowing using up coolant due to a faulty head gasket or a faulty water pump seal. Top it up for now and observe if the same is recurring, if it does, it's time to inspect your head gasket and water pump seals.Originally posted by philip.gunner View Post
Keep your observations posted.

Re: KTM 200 Duke
My bike odo is 56000kms.
Recently my coolant level has been reducing in the coolant reservoir for the last few months.
Noted down the odo while topping up and after doing about 700kms the coolant had dropped by approx 30% between max and min level.
I can also see oily dust kind of on the front end of the tank cover, near the two Allen key bolts which hold the tank cover and the fuel tank top the frame maybe.
Is the oil coming from the coolant overflow hose? The coolant in the reservoir is of the normal color, there's no color change.Leave a comment:

Re: KTM 200 Duke
In the past the front sprocket was replaced , there was no noise for couple of thousand kms and then the noise crops up again. Will let you know once i have replaced it. KTM Svc in whitefield says they have ordered the shaft but its been more than a week and they are yet to get it .
Originally posted by B7ACKTHORN View PostFrom what I can infer here, either your front sprocket has worn excessively causing play or your output shaft itself is worn due to a combination of worn sprocket and its clearances must have been out. But a new front sprocket will yield us better insights, if the sprocket fits and is able to be tightened. If replacing the front sprocket solves the issue, then you're all set. If you still have issue, then we have to dig a little deeper. I think there is a cheap alternate to the front sprocket of Duke 200 with that of a Pulsar 220/Avenger 220.
Good luck.

Re: KTM 200 Duke
Yes , i have seen one post regarding NS 200 shocks, not many people tried NS200 as well. If you find anything let me know.Originally posted by B7ACKTHORN View PostIf you find oil leak from your rear monoshock, it's time to replace the rear shocker. There is no repair that can be done to a leaky rear shocker. I am not sure on the Domi's rear shocker, but I did remember reading that 200 NS shocker being used for KTM, not sure about its veracity.

Dominor shock is better quality over ns 200 but would fit without any major changes i guess.
KTM shocks is expensive than Dominor's and not gas filled.Leave a comment:

Re: KTM 200 Duke
Yesterday night, i saw a oil leak in my duke 200 rear suspension.
Is there any fix or should i change whole rear mono shock?
Also i heard dominor mono shock is better fix for KTM since it is gas filled. Any views on this?Leave a comment:

Re: KTM 200 Duke
I went to them with the issue of delayed pickup in the first 3 gears and a lot of noise thats coming from the front sprocket area.

Re: KTM 200 Duke
Went to indimotard in blr for a full service of the duke. They informed the shaft which holds the front sprocket is compromised. KTM SVC says all is fine. Dont know who to believe.Leave a comment:

Re: KTM 200 Duke
Finally we get the all new BS6 Duke 200 here, internationally this design update for D200 was launched back in 2017.
At just 10K price hike over the previous model, biggest change apart from design you now get dual-channel ABS!

Re: KTM 200 Duke
That's a new forum record. It's high time you get it cleaned, and thoroughly. Cleaning the throttle body restores the performance of the bike big time, along with the other demanding changes.Originally posted by kundalus View Post

Re: KTM 200 Duke
The guy was reluctant to clean it right from the word go. In fact he said he had already cleaned mine two weeks ago [emoji23] which I'm not sure what he was talking about. I'm fine to get it cleaned outside of SVC if they are not willing to.Originally posted by B7ACKTHORN View PostJerking issues in fact will be solved by cleaning the throttle body if it hasn't been cleaned for more than 10k plus kms. The SVC will insist on getting things replaced because it's quick money and lesser headache of trouble shooting, unless they have found some genuine fault in your throttle body that's worth replacing. If your TB is good, performs good and just needs cleaning, then go ahead.

Honestly my bike is over 1lac km and it's has started demanding few changes. I haven't got TB cleaned ever.Leave a comment:
