Well the problem is ....
I have the Apache's bar ends installed and when I tried to take em out, the nut alone is getting loose and the unit won't come out...

also another challenge that was faced was the levers... They were either too long or the hand guards are somewhat wrongly placed.. So I decided to go all out..

Sorry I don't have his contact no.
I faced the same exact problem when I fixed the hand guards with "older" model 390 bar end weights. There is "newer" model weights which comes in two pieces ( each whole set costs 100₹) I got from west mambalam. They are perfect fit all the levers move properly.

They should first open up dedicated spare and service centres and should not club it with bajaj..

Guys I was thinking of getting a go pro as I feel my canon is too bulky..

I was googling and I came across this action cam called the SJCam SJ4000 has anyone heard anything about it??

it's a good alternative to the basic go pro. also there are a lot of knock off's of the sj4000.
a bit of googling will give you more info. there is this guy with a youtube channel 'techmoan' who has done comparisons/reviews of these cameras.
Look for a well reputed seller on aliexpress and order it (though some have gotten away without paying the customs duty, while some have been charged as much as 40 to 50% as duty negating the price advantage vs a go pro)

Well.. I actually got in to a chat with a guy from SJcams's website and he said that the cam is available at amazon.in

the price is somewhere around 8k inr... Which is still a good vfm..

if I end up with a replica, I can still get in to an argument with amazon..

waiting for my salary.. :P
Notice period sucks big time..

Yea you are rite spares and service are both done by Bajaj guys.
But what I have seen is KTM service is done by guys wearing KTM T shirts.
Worst KTM service centre in Chennai is Kattupakkam one managed by Mohteej Bajaj.

all these svc's be it bajaj+ktm or ktm/ninja exclusive have just one or two mechanics who are trained at the bajaj pune facility. the rest of the mechanics just learn on the job under their guidance.
regular servicing is like any other motorcycle and am sure most of the guys will be able to do it (will they do it is another question)

and yes, due to the drastic increase in sales over the past year, the workshops are jam packed at any given time.. so try to get a prior appointment and strike a rapport with the svc folks.

Re: KTM 200 Duke

[MENTION=82270]200Duker1993[/MENTION] ... Just the t shirt is different.. Lol

[MENTION=16602]s1d[/MENTION] .. He..he.. You are correct, they are understaffed and the sales volume has risen but the spare and service engineer availability still remains same..
Disappointing

[MENTION=38193]Vysakh.M.S[/MENTION] .. Thanks for clarifying my query.. I appreciate it..
