    Do check your owners manual, as it gives detailed insights as to what's on offer with regarding the TFT console and it's usage. There are certain parameters that should be followed for certain things, but mostly it's easy to grasp. Read your owners manual and if you're still not convinced, Google "Features of Duke 250 console", that should give you an idea as to how things work. Just basic stuffs.

    I am inexperienced when it comes to working on my own bike. Can you link me towards any tutorial? It'd be great!

    Everytime I start my bike and move few meters, there comes some squeaky sound from front brakes, which dissappears after attaining speed of 25+ but again while slowing down to halt, I can hear it again. This noise also goes away every time I get my bike washed, but only for that day, from the next day or on the same day, I begin to experience the problem. I think the brake pads aren't at its end yet but I still encounter the annoying noise. Can you guys suggest me any solution for this?

    Hey guys.I have a query. Does your speedometer show all the info like the duke 200s and 390s. Mine shows very limited information. It doesn't show time ridden and AVG speed for the particular ride. If you know the old dukes you should know. It shows real time fuel consumption and some more details in the trip meters. I'm really pissed off guts. Please respond.Peace ✌

    Is there any thread where I can look for used dukes (preferably D250)?

    I had p220 and i feel it was far smoother than d250.
    Been an issue with most 250s, from what I reckon it should be either due to bad fuel, that's one. Secondly, improper fuel maps and a clogged injector too can cause such issues. But considering the widespread nature of this issue, it's either got to be due to bad fuel or a faulty fuel map. If there's any update from the SVC, get it checked and get your motorcycle updated.

    The bike is new I think you won't find any sellers.So it's hard to get a good deal on the 17 models

    I have been using my duke 250 for the past six months and have done 6k on the ODO.
    Bike runs smooth without any problem.
    no vibrations whatsoever (or maybe i am used to them)
    Initial problem with fuel injection sensor, though its sorted now.

    Need a few things sorted

    1. Is there a way we can manually adjust the idling? if yes, guidance will be helpful.
    2. Idling is fluctuating between 1.5k - 1.75/2k. anyone having the same issue?
    3. Has anyone been using the NGK iridium spark plug?
    4. Any air filter upgrades? like K&N (part no)

    Thanks in advance.

    For daily commuting to the office fz25 is good option, as have good mileage in between 35-40 kmpl in the city limits, on road price of the fz25 is less , Good torque, maintenance cost is less compared to D250...Yamaha service network which you can find easily in small towns of india.

    Both are good bikes, rest hear your heart and buy the bike of your choice..
