    Is this for real?

    Hi all! Just picked up a low mileage used 2015 RC 390 and am loving it! I'm in the SF Bay Area and this thing is perfect for the crazy traffic around here. It's super skinny so filtering is so easy. And after watching all the YouTube videos on the RC 390 that I could find, I was thinking the...

    Cold starting

    Proper cold in the Uk at the moment. The last two mornings I've been unable to start the RC. Battery is Lithium and is nice and strong. I have a PCV fitted with a WB controller and I'm thinking may be a tweak to the fuelling would be the most probable cure. What does the forum massive think?

    Fitting Dunlops and other types/sizes

    First off has anyone tried Dunlop tyres as a change from the usual Pirelli, Metzeler and Continental offerings. Been thinking about Sportsmart² for road use and the Alpha13 for track. The Sportsmart² come in the standard sizings but with the Alphas I was thinking could you go with a 110/70...

    Possibly new RC390 owner from Norway

    Hi guys, I've been lurking these forums for some days now and I really dig it so far, so I figured I'd create and account. I am a currently bike-less 22 year old from Oslo, Norway who is looking into the RC390, mostly for just needing to have some sort of good looking bike that doesn't cost a...

    Help required - Lock-wiring race bike issues.

    Hi folks...thanks for having a look at the thread. I am prepping the 2 race bikes and I have come across a bit of an issue when trying to lock-wire the Oil-bung(Sump-plug/oil-drain).

    All White RC390

    I've always wanted an all white bike, but sadly the RC 390 only came with one color choice. I'm thinking about either painting mine to be like this one... KTM Faired RC 390 Going to launch in India in the End of 2014 | AutomobileHiTech

    has anyone done the first service by your self?

    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...

    How to adjust headlight height-wise?

    Having lowered my RC 390 30mm at the seat (RC 390) and raising the forks 16mm (instructions for the 30mm kit suggest 15-20mm) I suspected my headlights may need adjusting. Haven't riden it at night yet but I just started it up as it was just dark enough to check and Jesus Christ they are...

    Street Side Panel Logo Pieces

    It looks like the KTM logo sheet on the side panels is peel and stick and not clearcoated over top. Am I correct? Has anyone tried to remove them and just have the white side panels? I am thinking about removing the side panel logos to give me space for racing numbers. parillaguy

    Modifying the stock intake tract for more power (cleaner air)

    So currently, the intake track sits like this : It "sucks" in air from underneath the rear seat. Not a lot of clean space there or an open air to draw air in. I'm thinking about modifying it to suck in air from underneath the bike...something like this: To do that, you'd have to cut an...

    Don't throw away your stock exhaust

    If you've upgraded your exhaust and are about to bin it, I am interested in possibly buying it! I really like the look of the hidden stock exhaust, not so much the sound. So I'm thinking I'd like to modify it. I haven't seen pics of the stock can (suitcase?) so I wont know what direction I'll go...

    Which bike?

    Hi all This might sound weird, but it's a serious question. I'm thinking of replacing my commuter bike due to a change of commute. I'm going from 30 miles into town to a more rural 20 mile commute so was thinking about changing my current Honda NC700X. Reading the reviews of the new BMW R1200R...
