Put those mirrors back on the bike. They're there for a reason!Got a $5 head? Get a $5 helmet.

Re: KTM RC 390 Ownership Experience
Does any one have any idea about the hazard lights for KTM? I'm looking for them in Delhi and what would be the price!Comment

Re: KTM RC 390 Ownership Experience
Hey, I am aware that they are adjustable but the problem is that they can only be turned left/right, not up/down like in other bikes, so the range of view is very limited. Or are you saying that they can be adjusted up/down too?Originally posted by Ajay Vishwanath View PostComment

Re: KTM RC 390 Ownership Experience
They can indeed be adjusted vertically!! And the process mentioned by Ajay works flawlessly!Originally posted by hss View Post

Re: KTM RC 390 Ownership Experience
True that the vertical adjust allows for only a small correction but I feel it should be enough for riders of all the heights. It served me well. Also, these RVMs are not which bystanders can use to style their hair!!!Originally posted by rawat97 View Post

Re: KTM RC 390 Ownership Experience
Hey nice pics there [MENTION=63586]DukeDey[/MENTION]. I just got a query for all the RC owners.
I was planning to wait for the RC rather than getting the Duke. I test rode the RC twice, but both the times i felt that every single undulation on the road is felt on the back and eventually after a mere 10 mins of spirited riding over flyovers (with the seperators on road), i got a lower back ache. Any of you facing this issue? Are there any special seating positions that i can use? Any advices?
People who have ridden the RC for more than 20kms at once can be of help here.
Thanks in advance."When once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return." ~ Leonardo da VinciComment

Re: KTM RC 390 Ownership Experience
Those separators on highway flyovers are real menace and the only way to tackle them is by going slow. Of course RC gives great feedback and that is actually confidence inspiring. Hence, anything short of a smooth tarmac means negotiating the road very carefully.Originally posted by 'nYsus' View Post
As for the back issues on prolonged ride, they will ease out once you get used to it. The idea is to let back support itself and not put pressure on wrists and to grip the tank with thighs for support. My first long ride of 50km back from showroom was terrifying but now even 100 km or more non-stop over 2 hours don't feel a thing.
To sum up, don't worry about the ride position. It is no where as painful as it feels initially.Comment

Re: KTM RC 390 Ownership Experience
Hey [MENTION=72482]Alfa[/MENTION] congrats on the bike mate, How is the lower back doing? any specific position that helps? You sit closer to tank or farther from it?Originally posted by Alfa View PostGot the Beast on sunday, could not ride because of some commitments and regreted every minute, finally unleashed the beast yesterday(though within limits, run in),,, in love with it.
And i remember myself to get worried sick while deciding between duke and RC, as i wanted upright posture as i have lower back ache. But surprisingly till now am loving it
Everything too good about the bike, especially liked its stability and need not say about accerlation.
Bad part is
1. fuel filling
2. heat, yes i am riding ktm for first time and i do get uncomfortable with amount of heat it genrates.
3. rear view mirror are absolutely useless.
4. bit worried about engine oil level and occasional trouble it gave while starting[ i hope it starts smartly in winter chill and engine oil level seem low to me and i showed to service guy but he said its fine]
5. cleaning
Disclaimer ;- these are just 6 day observation and by no chance i know more about bikes than a 8 year old"When once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return." ~ Leonardo da VinciComment
