    Need to know any good painters or DIY tips would be most welcome
    I don't think they cost too much bro.. If the cost of the powder coating is more, what's the point ?

        Hey guys... I hope you are all doing well..
        Its been a while and I received the 15t and 16t sprockets and their spleen sizes are off by 2mm so they didn't fit properly.
        Secondly.. I was thinking of a diy hazard light so I thought of shorting the positive terminals of the indicators by using a switch and it works. But there is a small issue with that..
        When I short the two positives and turn on the indicator, all four indicators are blinking but.. This happens only when the engine is not running...
        When the engine is running, all 4 indicators are blinking like cluster f&%k
        So what's causing this??
        The electrical is AC or DC???
        Attaching pics for clearer understanding.

          Guys !!! also about the khat khat sound issue....I am also having that.. Checked the chain slack and it looked fine.. So I cleaned the chain and lubed it with gear oil and the noise is significantly reduced

            Did anyone suffer from the khat khat noise still pursuing after doing chain work. I am suffering. And it is only on solo rides that too 3000-4000 rpm 1-2-3 gear

Maybe because my rides are short(10 km) and going max 70 kmh.i hope the gold return so i stop stairing at it...all i do is watching it and feel sorry :/ . its my first bike and i am not very happy with what ive done. Tried to find high temp gold but i only found silver white black and brown. And remember... Keep oven cleaner far away from your bikes
              The golden color will absolutely get back to normal, nothing to worry. All you gotta remember is two things, first a no no to any sort of enamel/paint on the header, it will only make things worse. The rustic gold color will set in automatically after a few days or riding.

              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.

                    Yes, DS. Chain sliders, you have two one up, and one below the swingarm, check for wear and change, them if required and observe how it fares.

                        Both the chainsliders are ok it slashes in th mid section where the chain is open and just riding solo gives access to that sound. I am confused and irritated. It feels embarassing. Because when that noise starts everyone near me stares at me [emoji30]

Re adjust the chain. Remember the chain must to checked at the tightest spot, not the loosest part. What I'd suggest is, just go 1/3 of a turn more and tighten the chain and then observe what happens. Chains slaps when it's loose, try tightening the a notch and then see how it fares.

                              Bro my duke doesn't make that khat khat noise when the chain is lubed. I will also check the slack and try to true the wheel.

                              But my actual query was with the electrical system of the bike..
                              I shorted the +ve of the left and right indicators and when turn on either side of the indicators, all four of em flash but when the engine is running its like as though the diodes are blinking alternatively as though they are running off an ac current... Obviously some current is flowing back. So I was thinking you could shed some light on that

                                The 2015 model have an issue. The rear foot pegs will scrape on the saree guard. Does all the 2015 models have the issue? And the rear fender hits the tyre hugger when I hit potholes (along with pillion)
