      If you can afford change the front tyre to Michelin pilot street radial.
      Front tyre will always last more than the rear tyre, and Michelin psr would give you more confidence and front end feel while braking hard, while changing directions and at corners .

      Cheers.

        Hi guys,
        I am new to this thread. I own a AS 200 which has clocked 12000kms.
        I am trying to connect a phone charger in the bike but most of the tutorials are showing to connect it directly to the battery.
        Is there a way to connect the + and - wires to igniton? i.e. To be able to use it only when the key is turned on.
        Thanks in advance.
        P.S. I am a noob to electrical wiring and stuff so please pardon with some silly questions in the future.

          Just checked out the Revz FC1, any pointers on that? Itz a 110/70-17 and he said it'll fit properly and I have a 140/70-17 for the rear. . .

          The FC1 is also a new tyre that is launched exquisitely for Duke 390, so expect it to be better at corners. . .

              Take your bike to a mechanic and tell him to connect the charger to the ignition switch joint. It is located in the right hand side tank extension fiber part. The connection switch is reachable from the gap between handle fork and extension fiber panel.

                To the guys who have changed the front tyre to 110/70.
                Is there any speedo error?
                I heard that changing the size of front tyre will cause speedo error.

                And 100/80 being more pointy and higher profile compared to 110/70 , do you guys feel any difference in agility and direction changes?

                  I have NS200 installed with Michelin radials at front,
                  the handling is too heavy now but good at high speeds , break feel is improved, but surprisingly front suspension feel s soft now ,no vibrations.
                  , i have over geared the bike so cant comment about speedo error currently i get 80kmph @5k rpm on 6th gear .

                    I have changed to 110/70 and it's been 1240 kms since. Did not face any speedo error till now cross checked with my brother's Duke several times..
                    It actually feels more agile and filtering through traffic is more easy now because I am more confident of the grip with the new tyre..
                    But, again it's just my experience, before changing collect some more reviews..

                      Hey is that ok. If you want more pics. Send me your email or whatsapp no in private. I will send you there.

                      Unfortunately, my bike was stolen on the lst day of 2016, so cant send any new one!

                        There's a 1% reduction in circumference going from a 100/80R17 to a 110/70R17 - hardly significant at all. So speedo reading should be almost identical.

                          I have removed the Right side panel and located the Ignition switch joint. I am posting some of the pics. Can you guide me which wire to cut and join for plus and minus.

                            The brown wire is typically 12V. Could be live only during ignition on - check it with a multimeter. You generally can use the bike frame (choose any bolt) for ground (aka minus).

                              I have tested the poles with multimeter and getting a reading of around 7.45 volts.
                              One more observations is that I have removed that white connector and tested the indicator signal, It was working. If it were the ignition switch, the indicator shouldn't have worked.
                              A bit confused.

                              I connected the multimeter here. A picture for reference

                                I'm not absolutely certain if the AS200 is similar to the NS200 - but on my NS, I tap the ignition on power from the BROWN wire of the signal flasher relay.
