Saw some video on a Duke recently and the cluster looks way cooler than ours. I wonder how close to plug and play the swap would be?
Tach looks readable is the biggest thing I like, but just overall it looks more impressive
Am I an idiot here? Is there no adjustment to adjust the free play in the throttle on the 2017? I know it's throttle by wire but many other bikes can adjust the play out of the throttle even when throttle by wire -- but I'm either an idiot and not seeing it, or they hid it *and* removed it...

But in the owners manual it has a diagram showing to adjust the chain with 5 - 7 mm play but it is really had figure if they...
Just waiting around on the release of the RC 390. Sold off my RZ 350 (Yamaha) last summer in anticipation of a new bike from KTM w/ modern features = more ride time and less maintenance. Have been riding for 50 years and been through the gambit of Jap. bikes, British bikes, American (Harley)...
