Re: KTM RC 390 Ownership Experience
Ya it wa me had faced a horrifying time as I was on my trip to hyderabad at that time.
Well after getting the radiator and fan replaced, things are lot better than they used to be, i can see the deifference now because the fan is not constantly running all the times, it gets cutoff after sometime earlier once the fan kicked in it never used to stop running and i thought thats how it works, but in reality it should cool the bike in a few minutes and get cutoff which is happening now, so its definitely better now and also the temperature guage is always a bit less than what it use to be earlier.
By taking load I mean to say that at speeds between 80and 95 suddenly the I can feel that the chain is pulling very hard, I can feel that the gear box is trying to pull very hard, It feels like the chain has suddenly become very tight, In other terms it feels something like when you pull both ends of a rope it becomes very stiff and tight, thats how I feel at speeds between 80 and 95. I might have made it a bit complicated in the way i explained but I am not getting any proper terms to explain it, because unless we feel it its difficult to understand. one thing you have pointed out is correct on loosing momentum because there is a drop in acceleration as the bike is not running smoothly during that period.
