service

I took my KTM and dropped it off for it's second service, which is actually it's 4th oil change. My job requires a lot of travel, and when i'm not traveling i have a 2 hour daily commute each direction, from Corona CA, to Oceanside Ca and back. When i picked my bike up the dealer said they could...

I am selling my bike. Want the money more than the bike. Great Bike and I enjoyed every mile on it. All Stock beside the Pit Bull rear spools. It has 726 miles on it and that number shouldn't go up much at all. I currently have it put up for the winter. I also have 4 years remaining on my...

Just finished this 'light' build. Same bike in both graphs. Bike configuration is; stock exhaust, K&N filter, open lid, with a PCV. The blue curves are the stock engine, with before mentioned external mods, tuned. The green curves are with thin gaskets installed, head porting, valve touch up...

I recently finished my first 1000 KMs on my RC and gave my bike for first service. As i felt the clutch was a bit hard, i asked the service manager to see if he can do anything about it. the bike was delivered with the clutch action slightly modified, which made the clutch action engage with a...

Finally have 700k miles on my rc 390, I don't want to take her to the dealership because I've been seeing post of the prices which seem really $$$$. First bike so i just know the basics, but i really want to do all the service it needs. Where can i buy everything i need? I checked with oreilys...

My RC 390 was receiving a light dusting of rusty powder around the rapidly stretching stock chain. I replaced the chain this afternoon with an RK 520 XW. The new chain was more than a full link shorter in length. When I ground the stock rivets out, I imagined the old chain was throwing...

Does anyone know how you can reset the milage to the next service if you do the service yourself ?

Hey everyone, I just wanted to pop in and introduce myself a little bit. I'm Mike and I live and work in the NW suburbs of Chicago. The RC390 is my first "real bike " (I had a '78 Yamaha XS750, but barely rode it because of the shape it was in). I had originally gone to look at a Triumph...

So my bike is at about 900km as of now so I decided I would put in a service appointment for the fist service. I got an email back from the dealership with a work order and quote for the service and it totalled about $700. I kind of know a guy at the shop so the actual quote he gave me was about...

Hey guys, I was thinking about undertaking the first service at 1000kms. Instead of blowing $200-$300 on a dealer to do it, I was thinking about doing it my self. Really its only a check over and oil change from what the manual says, which shouldn't be hard at all.. Just wondering what you guys...

I just scheduled my initial service with the dealer, and they told me that their KTM field rep said that the valve check is optional at this point. They said none of the ones they've done so far have been out of spec so save the money and do it at the next service at 5000mi or whatever. I...

Coming up on the second service interval for my bike (Around 4.5-5K miles, I believe). Did the first service myself and may end doing this one myself too, not sure I trust my dealer. Just wondering if anyone has had this done at their dealer and what was the cost?

not sure this is the right section but here goes... after getting home from work i was inspecting my bike to find that one of the rear brake cables has melted onto the exhaust system as it was touching it. Does anyone know how big of a problem this is? I intend to look it up in the manual but...

OK, so took my bike in for its first service yesterday. Now i bought the bike used from a guy pretty far away w 230 miles on it. I wasnt going to ride it back to the original dealership for service when i had a dealer about 45 min away. I called and made my service appt a week ago. KTM manual...

So I took my RC 390 into the dealer today for its 1000km first service. Guy one the phone when I booked it(bike had about 950km then) said it would take about 1.5 hours. So fast forward 5-6 days, the bike has 1600km now(not completely relevant to the thread title, but just wanted to say I'v...

I figure probably not, but does anybody know if there is any way an individual can log service on their bike into the KTMdealer.net site, or can ONLY dealers get in to do that? I've printed out the checklist for the initial service items from the service manual. I figure worst case I can...

Is anyone having problems with the instrument panel? I noticed that my clock was NOT accurate (running through about 2 hours every 15 minutes), and now it has actually stopped: at 4:44. This is not catastrophic, just an annoyance, but I will have to call the dealer on Tuesday and talk to them...

Have PDFs of the parts, and service manuals surfaced yet?

Can anyone advise please - my RC390 is due for its first 600 mile service which is basically an oil change, fault diagnostics test and chain check and the dealer I bought the bike from; Fowlers of Bristol are quoting £194 plus VAT!!! I asked several times for confirmation from them that if I...
