      Got myself a pre-worshipped 390 recently. Previous owner is a member in this forum as well.
      Did not get much of a chance to let her rip. Booked for a track day in April at Kari Motors Speedway.

        Those are some nice set of wheels. How is that design done, is that vinyl or paint?
        Just because you haven't seen it doesnt mean its impossible...expect the unexpected.

            That's a simple paint job, fairly common among 200s.

                  hey man just a question looking at the aftermarket exhaust!
                  does it cracks n pops once in a while while deceleration? i mean it sounds sick. it happens to the aftermarket exhaust that i have put on my RC.
                  i hope its not bad for fueling or engine management.

                      Yes, that is correct, the services can be carried out across any authorized service centers of KTM. the only condition being free services should be within the prescribed kms/time frame. If it goes beyond that they are at will to terminate warranty.

                      Cheers

                            Fueling is managed by Race Dynamics Powertronics Piggy ECU system. So now no popping for me. The bike redlines at 12000 RPM.

                            Thanks Nasir... However 125KPH still remains. That is the wife.. this is the mistress. The main reason I bought this is to have fun in the race tracks and for occasional touring. I'm getting a full leather suit for the track.

                            As for the 125KPH she is going to go through few engine mods this time. Im collecting spares. The mods planned are 535 big bore, lighter & balanced crank assembly, upgraded roller & needle bearings and possibly ceramic ball bearings.

                                Waiting period depends from dealer to dealer.
                                If you are insisting for 2015 manufactured models, it might be 1 month or so, but it shouldn't take that long.

                                Warranty period is 2 years or 30,000kms whichever is earlier.

                                And if you are following their service periods properly for free services, then engine seizure under that time should be covered under warranty.

                                Cheers
