    Goodbye everyone

    My 390 was lost in the floods here in Houston and was taken away last Friday. I really enjoyed the little bike, having a field day on the track annoying the 600 and liter bikes. Given the bike's history for quality issues though, I am going to move on the adifferent bike, probably a new R6...

    KTM Thermostat Switch question

    It would definitely help in stop and go/heavy traffic where air flow is low through the radiator. I would also ad Ice coolant and the higher pressure radiator cap.

    Who LOVES their RC390, and why?

    Lack of Customer Support 2016 RC390

    Having been on the forum since I bought my bike a year and change back, I have to believe I am one of the lucky ones so far. I got all my manuals in the nice big zippered case. My bike has not missed a lick (except for my own doing..idle is still giving me fits with the Bazazz), I have been...
