    Congrats! Pretty soon it happened I must say.

    BTW, the stickers are NOT how they're meant to be. Or is it? Can somebody clarify this for me?

      Those are not 390 stickers. they are 200 stickers with 390 numbers, i have sent a private message to avin45h to check for the credibility of the bike.

        Too bad, he's passing through really troubled times. But, I'm sure the SVC can't sell a 200 as 390, I mean it can be verified easily. Lets hope for the best.

          They might be trying to sell a 390 in 200's cloths
          In my opinion, he should not take this bike.

          Ride safe and have fun.

            That's not the KTM's original black color. It's customised by a person.

                Hey buddy,
                Relax and follow the below steps

                warm up the engine by idling for a few mins or riding
                turn off the engine and wait for a minute
                chk the oil level with the bike being straight
                if level is less than the min marker, add 50 ml of oil
                chk the level and add more if necessary,
                preferable to have the level a little bit above the min marker...

                Enjoy the rides and keep a check on all fluids regularly...

                Congrats for the bike.... but that bike was originally white and orange...
                This is a KTM lajpatnagar job..
                This is a very serious issue...
                Please bring this to the notice of KTM and bajaj

                Those are 200 stickers with 390 cutouts..

                  Just a wild guess...might be they sold the original tank and panel to some accidental bike and put 200 tank and panel on this with 390 sticker. And they sold it at Rs. 6000 extra

                    did a comparison with 200, panels and tank on 390 is a lot bigger, so I dont think clothes can be changed, engine is 390 cc, I can feel that. dealer says if its just about stickers, he can make it look like online version easily, 5500 for stickers. also, there are no signs of installation from a different bike. apart from that.. why would someone even do this, the effort required is way too much... waiting for input from you guys.

                      Get a new piece. Why spend 5.5k for something that was meant to be put by default. This maybe a showroom piece or test ride bike. It may give problems.

                        Dude... both 200 and 390 have same body... there is no difference. .. 390 tank is lil smaller but the external body is same so that it can fit the new bigger engine... u can check with any dealer. ... this is serious issue. ...

                          I think the racing sticker pack for the bike costs 5.5K and trust me it definitely does not look anything like the bike shown on KTM website. The black Duke200 has the same stickers except for the smallish 200. This seems to be the same sticker with 390 instead of 200. I don't honestly know whether the showroom has done a number on you or not, but, did you check with KTM CP or Bagga Link CarolBagh? If there are any black 390s it will be present in BaggaLink Carol Bagh.
