      Nice stuff, IJA. What I would be interested to know is the price you've paid, and warranty if any. And if you can, due to popular demand, if you can take a few snaps of the bar itself from a couple of angles and post it here would be helpful, along with the details requested above.

      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.

      • Is KTM Duke 390 right for me.

        Hello Friends,

        I am interested in buying KTM Duke 390. Hence I need some information regarding this.

        Most of the bikes have seat height of 780/785 mm, duke 390 have 810mm. The problem is my height is 5 ft 5 in. Please let me know if I would be able to manage or balance this bike because when I sit on the bike only front portion of my toes touches the ground.

        Also let me know how is the rear braking of this bike. I have heard that the rear breaking is not good. If it is not good, then is there any solution for this ?

        Actually I am looking for a bike from 250-350cc segment and that too naked with lower seat height. If Duke 390 is not right then which bike I should go for ? Or should I wait for more options in 2017.

        Thanks

                If you can search enough, you can get a decent set of lights with warranty. Aliexpress is a treasure trove for all the DIYers and affordable Chinese items. But the shipping, return policies if in case your product is conked or dead upon arrival is a different story altogether.

                Here, in India who resell lots of LED bars, though slightly at an upper price band, but with warranty of course.

                        Mine is this one. Vibrelli phone mount. Same-to-same design but different brand name. Must say awesome gadget. Full paisa vasool. The phone is rock stable. I used it off-road too. The mobile holds still and doesn't move an inch.

                              I planned to get the MRF Revz once the Metzelers worn out. But then decided to get the Michelin because (the Tire Shop guy also said that) wet grip is less in MRF. Also few of my friends were using Michelins.
                              But during the last KTM track day in Chennai, there was a 390 with REVZ installed with the most chicken strips. Also for normal riding conditions in decent speed, MRFs should be enough I think.

                                Okay.
                                There are few mrf c1 reviews online, they testing was done on 390's.
                                Most of them said that the dry grip is very good and its mentioned that mrf c1 is softer than michelin , michelin costs high compared to mrf only because its imported tyres!
