    But my question is regarding the new color LCD TFT console. I remember reading on the same thread someone mentioned that going forward 2017+ D390, the ODO reading is also stored in ECU aswell and SVC has tool that can flash/write back the old ODO kms reading from ECU onto the new TFT which was replaced.

    Never got any confirmed response from the owners on this thread who got it replaced under warranty.
    the pre 2017 models also have the odo reading stored on the ecu. i've seen the odo reading show up on their diagnostic tool when connected to my 2014 duke (the reading was around 3% less than what was shown on the odo. never got a proper answer as to why the discrepancy.

    but i doubt if its possible to reflash a new console with the odo reading.

    Hope this chain gives better life.
    Irrespective of what chain you use, don't forget the timely lubrication procedure. A well lubricated and slacked chain will always last longer, run smoother, and reduce good amount of transmission losses.

    Good luck.

    I had got it replaced on my previous 390 (out of warranty) and it costed me only 7K, but this one costs 18K and in no ways I'm paying for that. So if its flickering, I might as well get it replaced now.

    I’ve heard that the SFF are only limited to the 2017+ Dukes and RCs (except for the 125s) and only the outer shell of the WP was copied by Endurance for the Dominors and all the internal components are different with WP 43mm unit.
    If it’s not the case I’d be in big trouble!

    I have been lucky to buy one of the first Kawasaki Ninja 250 some 8 years back (yup in 2009). I absolutely love the Ninja for its ability to do anything you can throw at it; be it track or be it long tours. I did couple of track days on it, did some touring like Rajasthan, Gujarat on it and most importantly commuted every day to office on it. It is one fantastic machine and even when I have done more than 60,000 km on it, I doubt I will ever part with it.

    But about 4 years after purchasing the Ninja, I wanted to have a bit bigger, more powerful machine and so entered Yamaha FZ1. It is absolutely boring to look at (many guys on the road ask me where I got my FZ16 modified) but with 150 bhp on tap without any kind of electronic aids, it is a hoot to ride. No frills, no electronic nannies and all raw power. “Brutal Beauty” is the tagline of FZ1 ad and it is actually true. In no time, I clocked up 23,000 km on it. Again I doubt that I will replace the FZ1 ever. https://jiofilocalhtml.run https://forpc.onl

After pulling over, and turning the key OFF/ON the bike started only with the throttle not working. The throttle was completely disconnected. After a few more OFFs & ONs throttle worked and the same throttle disconnection happened again when I started my journey from where I had stopped next. This is the first time my bike has behaved this way. Any one with similar experience ?
    It's possible that your side stand switch is faulty. When this switch is faulty, a perfectly running bike will stall and sometimes start and sometimes won't even crank, as the failed side stand switch won't allow the bike to start. Get this switch replaced or use a switch bypass device to make the side stand sensor render ineffective. First off, clean the side stand switch and its connectors and see if it helps, as dirty switches and sensors will work intermittently.

    If it repeats after this process, replace the side stand switch.

    My Bike after two years and almost 30k on ODO.

    So many small modifications and hand painting on tank.

    Luckily no major issues so far and hoping for same in future. [emoji16]Click image for larger version Name: Maya%20sony%205.jpg Views: 1 Size: 20.4 KB ID: 1972121
