    Re: KTM RC 200 Owners Experience Thread

    Hello,
    I've I have to buy an insurance for my bike. Please suggest the best ones. I have iffco tokio in my mind because of its high IDV.
    Planning to sell my bike next year.
    Also, I dropped my bike last month. A couple of parts are still broken so, if I renew my insurance now, (Previous- liberty Videocon) who will pay for it? Liberty or iffco tokio? 10 days left for the insurance to expire.

    Hey guys, In low revs, shortly after the bike is left to idle, it cuts out... ENGINE shuts down.. what to do now? I gave my bike to SVC guys for decarbonization. Bike is smoother than before. But while on my way back to home, engine turned itself down at least 10 times ..so I gave them again.. they say, it's idle problem.. what to do now

    ride safe!
    My bike also had the same problem got the throttle body and ecu changed under warrenty. Now the bike working fine.

    I generally don't like the RC's looks, but the all black looks so cool!

    Excellent. Looking forward to it. And when you do, do splash your post with some pics of your ride and the ODO and what not.

    Cheers!

Would definitely come in handy for someone considering to pick up the machine. Ride safe.

    Different sounds can point to different set of issues. If you feel constant tick tick or click click sound throughout the rev range, do get your valve clearances checked, most probably you'd be requiring periodic shim replacement.
