You guys are lucky *sigh* The only 390 that we have is the Test bike -_- . Correct me if i'm wrong but it seems not a single bike has been delivered here in Kerala ! I go to the showroom almost every week...n they say deliveries will start in 2 weeks ...every time...soo frustrating !
Rather than looks, I appreciate KTM's thoughts and steps taken to work on the Heat issue of 390 Duke.
They have updated the functionality of Radiator Fan and now they have added this mud flap. Without mud flap there has been loads of slush accumulated in radiator fins. The mudflap will resolve the problem and help radiator breathe more easily.
BTW, got the Carbon Fiber like material (not carbon fiber imitated) rim strip. They look excellent. The METZLER text got it cut and is on both the wheels on either sides.2007 - Hero Honda CBZ Xtreme

OMG, you have already done 11K on your 390....i reckon by the time i finish writing this post it will be 12K :POriginally posted by MG View PostRecently did a 2800km ride to Chennai from Pune and back. Wanted to do this run from a long time to check its performance on highway on a longer run. This is what I found from the ride
Note: The average will improve by 2-3kmpl in production bike as this is a test bike which is trashed from the very first km
Pics from the ride
People are still waiting for get their bums over their beast for the first kilometer.......
Man hats off to your commitment (and bank balance)

Re: KTM 390 - The original Hooligan - Ownership Thread
nice review there MG.
Was calculating, from cost of running perspective. --> Almost 4rs. a KM for fuel.
24K for metzeller tyres every 8K km average --> 3Rs per KM.
Servicing around 2500 every 6K. + lubing every 500 km and misc. --> 1 Rs. a km
so approx is around 8Rs. a KM.
The way this bike crunches miles,
a weekend pune-kolhapur run 500 km round trip would cost me 4K bucks.
and a long ride like pune-delhi run 3500Km round trip would be 28K INR.
wooooooooshhhh...

Hey guys !...about the tyres...there was a rumour about bajaj buying the tyres in bulk n selling it at 11-12k ... is that just BS or is it the real deal ? ...or are we looking at 24k every 10k kms ??

[MENTION=10454]MG[/MENTION] awesome average speed..
regarding the top speed, did you try to reach 172+ more than once and each time it stopped at 172???
My bike reaches higher speeds in crouched position..
Could it be because it is a test bike?

Re: KTM 390 - The original Hooligan - Ownership Thread
When I complained to ktm about non delivery of bike by delhi dealer on time they immediately took action and called me and also chased dealer and I got the bike in first lot. I must say if there is any irregularity complain to ktm Custer care they will listen to you.
