Guys, I'm posting here after too much of frustration with the KTM service for the last 3 days. Mine is a 2015 RC 390 and I'm hearing a very unusual clanking noise from the engine when I accelerate hard between 5-6k rpm's under load and vanishes off post that or less than 5k revs. This is not valve clearance sound as this doesn't happen under idling conditions. The clanking noise is not present when the bike is revved without load.
I'm suspecting the one-way clutch or the rotor bolts that are off the torqued specs but the KTM guys are saying it's common. I again proved them by riding a friend's 2015 RC 390 which has no sound. I have a ride coming up this weekend and I really need assuring answers to sort this out or my annual ride plan would get cancelled with a bike I'm not sure when it would break down.
Pls. help..
