Re: 2017 Duke 390 Owners Reviews and Experiences
yeah mate!! my bike has had many problems since the day i brought it, headlight issue,engine oil leakage,tail lamp problem,radiator fan assembly prblm, rear monoshock problem and many more ,for which i paid for engine oil leakage and rear monoshock. Now the faulty TFT has to be manufacturing defect. I'll write to ktm regarding this and hope they'll replace it out of goodwill gesture...Originally posted by B7ACKTHORN View PostMourya, it is pretty much a tough fight once warranty is over, you will be obliged to pay for whatever issues that crop up otherwise. But, you can try your luck with KTM, and if indeed a goodwill gesture is considered, you can consider yourself lucky. The next is to claim insurance, but, insurance will cover damaged items not defective items.
Cheers!

I'll ask them to try with another console,if it doesn't work I'll write a mail to ktm describing the problem( whether it helps?!).

If part or whole of the display acts up weird or are blacking on one edge of the spectrum of the console, you have a faulty console. Get it replaced if you're under warranty. Try to replicate the issue with another speedo console if the SVC can do that, if the same happens your problem is elsewhere, but if the other console is fine, your console is faulty.

It works fine when i turn it on in the morning. When i turn the ignition off and on again, half of the display goes black. This happens even when engine isn't turned on. I've given it in service centre and they don't know what's wrong with it. Anyone else with this problm??
Cheers!

Re: 2017 Duke 390 Owners Reviews and Experiences
Any recommendations for Full body decal/sticker kit set online?
Or any website, insta page?
Not able to find any good. Wrapandride has nothing for Duke. [emoji52]

Re: 2017 Duke 390 Owners Reviews and Experiences
Throttle body and carb cleaners basically are one and the same, though the harshness differs. Both do the job of cleaning it well. I for one, would trust plain petrol for cleaning the TB as well as sensors -- albeit be careful while cleaning the sensors, dropping them or hard impact will and can make them faulty. Exercise special care when cleaning the sensors and equally cautiously installing them back. Don't worry about any alternatives Srvn, stick to STP Carb Cleaner or Wurth Cleaners, if you can't afford them, petrol is the way to go, for 250, you can get 3+ liters of petrol which is enough to clean the entire motorcycle.Originally posted by Srvn View PostThanks VJ, what about those sensors, how does one clean them? Isn't carb/TB cleaners too harsh to be used for cleaning sensors? Could petrol be used to clean them as well, If not what are the alternatives?
Thanks

Re: 2017 Duke 390 Owners Reviews and Experiences
You can use Petrol or Throttle Body cleaners. Usually, Petrol itself is a very efficient solvent in de-gunking the deposits on the throttle body and the butterfly valve. The trick is to soak the parts well in petrol then start scrubbing using a toothbrush or a small painters brush, the latter works out very well, and the throttle body comes out spic and span. Wurth and STP carb cleaners are great choices. I would strongly recommend Wurth.Originally posted by Srvn View PostNice job!
May I know what did you use to clean the Throttlebody? Also did you clean those sensors too by removing them?
Thanks
Srvn
Great. Do keep us posted on the detailed steps, after you're done. Now that you have access to manual, if you can tabulate how it was done, would definitely help other fellow DIYers too.Originally posted by muhammedr95 View PostThanks so much bro. I did succeed in my next attempt. The bike has become way smoother at lower RPMs, but no improvement in mileage as such, as well as the starting trouble.
Cheers!
