    Can ktm owners from pune suggest the best dealership here with respect to service and ownership experience? Thanks in advance.

I highly doubt your clutch plates are to be blamed here... it's a clear case of your sensor not able to read the throttle as it should
      Thanks for the input vinaymonu25 will definitely get it checked out sometime. For now what I have deduced is that the slipping was being caused due to no free play in the clutch lever. The Ktm user manual clearly mentions that clutch will slip if the free play is not correct. Having corrected the free play I am not facing any issues with the bike, the performance is back to normal. Will update after clocking few hundred kilometres. And a word of advice to all fellow riders, if you are riding in eastern Uttar Pradesh, avoid Ktm Gorakhpur at all costs, these guys are inexperienced and only interested in making money. Better visit ktm lucknow. Riders from lucknow please provide details of a good ktm service centre in lucknow.

              It doesn't look like a wrap but the bike in photos look really like a mosquito not offending anyone but the orange does the justice to this bike.

                  Looking at the quality of the sticker for 'DUKE 390' it doesn't seem like a factory finished job to me. Few dealers sometimes take the initiative and get some cosmetic work done on their display vehicles. Besides in KTM website I can't see any new colors other than white or orange.

                  Don't think this is a new color (though personally even I would prefer the black).

                    Ι' ve done my first 130km and till now the bike is great.
                    But today i noticed a small plastic on the floor at the place i park it.

                    I have the bike less than a week and this happened .
                    I'm pretty sure that it holds some short of tube or cable and the double side tape probably wasn't in good shape this is why it happened.
                    Does anyone know where this plastic goes?

                    It worries me that it may be from the tube that goes out of the reservoir. I am not sure but in the part it is written "BKT TUBE DRAIN JG 11 3816 02" and from the image of the ktm service manual i see that the tube at the reservoir has the same name as in the part.

                    So if this is it, i may have a problem soon.

                      How many RPM your engine has when it is in Idle?

                        For me its around 1800, and I think this is normal for this bike.

                              In few days (or tomorrow) I'll be riding it.

                              Do you know if KTM plans to make an update so we can see the navigation map from our mobile to the screen, using My Ride?

                                My bike is six months old now and the same part fell off in the first month of ownership. It is marked 'BKT TUBE DRAIN JG 11 3816 01'. Notice the '01' at the end instead of the '02' as on yours. I am yet to check with the service guys about reinstalling it but it hasn't hampered anything that I know of. My Odo is 5k+ BTW I have seen/heard at least a couple of more owners talk about this part falling off.

                                Also, Its great to see the service manual, is it possible for you to post it here?
