    The background is white and dominant according to pics - Duke written in orange with black shadow-cast.

    An ideal combination for me would be an orange tank with 390 stickers, orange frame and black alloys. More elegant but still "orangy".

    If the tank isn't expensive I'll change it to orange. But it means also getting extra 390 tank stickers. It might be too much orange with orange alloys, but then, can you ever have too much orange?
    That white tank just puts me off big time...

    Now that we have news that the deliveries are going to start by the month end, will the Gag order be lifted?? A review from the bhp forums is a must before I pick my vehicles.

    With respect to heating issues, is it possible to Flash the ECU to kickstart the Fan early. From what I read around it starts some where around 80%. For those who have driven 390, 200 and bullet classic 500, how bad is the heating of 390 vs 200 vs Classic 500

    Starting issues is one thing that is surprising though. Anyone from Hyderabad took the test drive?

    The Chakan plant which produces KTM and Bajaj brands is presently operating with manpower at little more than half its total strength. From two bikes per worker the company has increased output to 2.6 bikes per worker.

    "Today, around 757 workers have reported to work and today we will produce 2000 vehicles at Chakan and 1100 Pulsars at Waluj. 100% (Chakan and Waluj) of our requirement of all brands of the Pulsar, Avenger and KTM is achieved", said a statement from Bajaj Auto.

    Visited showroom Saturday sadly 390 was not there and duke 200 test bike was also in maintenance ,after 3 hr showroom guy called and informed that 390 arrived !
    although he refused to allow me to ride due to no insurance but he took test drive in front of me, it was just awesome !
    also allowed me to seat and start bike, i am 5.9" comfort was also great.
    but i didn't liked the white color, i mean its great from other sides but while sitting on the bike that white huge tank doesn't looks good.
    Waiting for new color !

    Yup, I have been following up for a test ride from the day it was launched. I would have booked had they provided me a test ride unless there is something that I really don't like.

    I just hope I am able to hold onto the money.
