    that's why I have short gearing buddy.

    When I should brake from 50 km/h or above, quickly, I blip, downshift, use engine braking and as the revs drop, blip, downshift and let the engine take over again. I do this in all gears. As a result I barely used my brake pads at all so I squeezed a healthy 18k kms off the pads. Never faced problems like mis-shifts or the gear lever becoming free at lower rpms. AFAIK this is normal on gearboxes designed to complement high-revving engines. We need to change our techniques that's all.

        Hi all,
        want some suggestion regarding the replacement of engine oil.
        Is it ok to mix the semi-synth oil with mineral-based for the top-up over 1-litre, I have around half-litre of mineral oil which was left on the last oil replacement. But this time I will add either full-synth or semi-synth, So will it be ok to add the remaining 200ml of mineral based?

          A friend of mine with a custom slip on free flow exhaust and bigger main jet got his NS dyno tested at Race Dynamics today. It made 17 Bhp at the wheel. Most other NSs made 16 Bhp. Other power figures:
          R15: 12 Bhp.
          KTM 200 Duke: 17 Bhp.
          KTM 390 Duke: 36 Bhp.

          All these are real world power figures with almost negligible transmission losses (assuming) of bikes which had clocked considerable miles on them.
          How I wish I had the time to get it done.

            How much are they charging for a dyno run ? Also can you upload a screenshot of the power figures ?

                Dalda can exhaust and upjetting is not much time consuming. A bigger jet will make more power easily, he would have gotten 1 bhp bump without that free flow exhaust too. The thing that matters is at what rev range the power is being made. A good example of it would be when Bajaj introduced UG 4.5 version of Pulsar 150 with a bigger carb (BS29) the power was bumped up to 15.06 Bhp from 14.09 Bhp but it was generated at 9000 RPM while in earlier versions max power was generated at 8500 RPM.

                The transmission lost in the KTMs seem to be a little bit higher, 8 Bhp loss on both. I will ask on the KTM Duke 200 and 390 ownership thread if anybody had done a dyno run.

                  Apart from the ride, I love the rider's helmet.

                  That's Iannone's design. But I guess in 2013 he rode with an AGV no?
                  Just because you haven't seen it doesnt mean its impossible...expect the unexpected.

                      I saw that you could place your feet comfortably on the ground while seating on the 200NS, so I asked.


                      @Aditya N Bharadwaj About Dukes' transmission loss I came across this video on YouTube, Ktm duke 200 dynomite - YouTube I will PM the uploader to confirm if it is stock or not.


                      EDIT: I saw another video of dyno test too which is quite interesting, a guy from Indonesia dyno'd his P220. A stock P220 makes 21.04 Ps (20.75 Bhp) @ 8500 rpm and 19.12 Nm of torque @ 7000 rpm.
                      In the test he got 19.46 Bhp of power and 17.45 Nm of torque which is quite close to the claimed figures. Looking at those figures and considering the weight of the bikes (200NS has a kerb weight of 145kg and P220 weights 150kg wet but P220 has a 15 liter fuel tank while 200NS has a 12 liter one so both are equal in weight) considering all the above a P220 would accelerate faster and get a better top speed than the P200NS but this does not happen in real world test. Looks like Race Dynamics, the so called tooner needs to get their dynos checked first before providing "yooning" services. Now where's the link to the Fz18 thread where Joel's R15 kits were turned out to be cheap duplicate Indonesian scooter cylinders, (Yamaha Ray IIRC).
                      Link to the aforementioned video, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aN5t7xua7NU

                          There could be some other issue. As we never came across such issue.

                            All mineral and SS can be mixed, but not FS as their structure is completely different. Also when mixing M and SS if the viscosity index is the same then it's even more good. And using upto 500 ML is not going to affect the performance in any way. But not equally half, as it nullifies the do-good properties of both the oils, but 200 to 500 absolutely not a problem.

                            Cheers!

                            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

                              Dyno run was free for three days supposedly. I'll upload the screenshot as soon as my friend who got the dyno test done, gets the details by email from RD and sends the same to me.

                              I too was not expecting these results. I was expecting around 22 for NS, 24 for 200 duke and 40 for 390 duke, all at the wheel.
