    i am assuming this 'phat phat' is from the exhaust? And its common on the duke, unless it too loud like a misfire.
    you could maybe try refueling from a different petrol bunk and put on a few more km and see how it goes.
    Yes I know it's very difficult to identify the sound issues it comes only when I go faster say more than 50kmph I am sure it's not an backfire. The sound is constant in the above mentioned speeds.
    Occasionally I use Shell V power or HP Premium Petrol.

      Hi guys. I washed my bike and after that I can see lots of swirl marks on the console. It is visible only when in direct sunlight. It's a1 week old bike
      Can someone confirm me if it's normal?

        Use a dashboard polish and all will be fine.

            Did u apply any oil from priest or sth? Coz my priest drew a sacred symbol with oil on my console. And the mark still hasn't gone till now. I've washed my bike 3 times in 2.5 months.
            Btw you can't apply too much pressure on the console as it's a delicate area.

              Nope it was swirl.I think it went to certain extend after cleaning with some 3m polish they used

                        Swirl marks are normal, unless they are so much that they appear like scratches, very fine swirl marks are visible when viewed from certain angle with sunlight on the speedo, quite normal.

                        Do not use dashboard polish on speedo console, sometimes the black plastic rubber part on the speedo gets a "whitized" tint and it's very hard to remove them.

                        Some priests use kumkum and keep a small bindi on the speedo. Now the issue is if you have the speedo covered with the protector, the protector becomes red/orange and that "dot" is impossible to get rid off, though they fade slowly over time. And preists nation wide somehow have the conviction to place a bindi right in the center of the console. Some gyaan I say.

                        Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl 'Will you marry me?'
                        The girl said, 'NO!'


                        And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.


                        THE END

                              Haha agree with you.
                              Well it went off now.its all cool now.I polished it very lightly and there are no swril marks anymore
                              However I think the console screen quality is pretty bad coz even at the slightest of running it generates a permanent scratch.saw it on my friend bike.(390)
                              However if I apply a thin 3M coating (like in superbikes people use it for tank scratch protection ) will it make the display burn or develop black marks inside it .I heard someone saying it happens if its kept under such plastic or film protections
