Short Service - Annual or 7,500km KTM 390 Duke 125 200 250

Today we are doing the short or annual / 7,500km service on the 390 KTM Duke 125 250. This should be done either at 7,500 km or once a year, whichever happens first. Since my bike doesn't do a lot of miles, the annual service comes first. If you do less than 7,500km in a year then the annual is all you need to do.

You are an amazing resource for us duke owners

[@MotoMirius]

You are very welcome, thank you.

[@skinnergarth]

Thanks for the rear brake cable warning. Only got 1800km on my bike with the first service already done at KTM. Found the cable has already been worn down to the wire.

[@MotoMirius]

Unfortunately not the first time I’ve heard this. It can happen when cleaning etc so worth keeping an eye on. Skäl. David

Very informative for those that don’t know. Nice one 👍🏻

I’m glad you have made these vids cause mine needs to be serviced soon and for obvious reasons, the shops aren’t open.

Always good to pick up some basic skills and then use the shops for the complicated stuff. Skäl David

[@abluequaker5486]

DIY or they snap your fairings and charge you over $300 (AUD) for labour. I'd have a new chain and 42T powerparts sprocket for that price.

[@TheJWC56RSA]

Very methodical approach - thanks David! Maybe add tire pressure check?? Regards!

[@MotoMirius]

Thanks. I'm sort of assuming that anyone contemplating doing there own service is capable of checking the tyre pressures and if they can't then it's sort of self selecting that they won't be have the technical ability to do the service. There is more detail such as checking if the brake discs aren't warped that I've not included as it's the sort of thing you would notice if it was your own bike but would need to check if you were servicing someone else's bike and ought to notice on the test ride.... It's a good suggestion and now I'm visualising buying half a dozen different pressure gauges to show how to do it with each different one in a stand alone video! Skäl David

[@AniketSen]

that was a nice crash guard....I wish i could get one like that here in my country,,,,

[@MotoMirius]

If you can buy the Duke in your country, you can buy everything that is fitted to my bike.

[@AniketSen]

@@MotoMirius could you recommend me one?

[@MotoMirius]

@@AniketSen The engine cage is the KTM Powerparts cage and can be bought from your KTM dealer. You can buy copies but the colour is often wrong and make sure it comes with the right bolts to fit it.

[@johnybrokeit]

@@AniketSen did u find the engine guard? I live in India, in Bangalore city, and on Amazon.in they have an engine guard that looks similar BUT it has those crash bobbins attached, one on either side. I believe our gentleman friend whose video we are commenting on (thank you again, Sir) recommended to me previously that I try to find the guards without the bobbins. I seem to think they make better sense too, cuz they will not lock onto any crevices on the road and put pressure on the chassis which they r attached to. Mr. Moto Mirius, it seems like even the powerparts catalogue is differently available from country to country. It has been hard for me to find your engine guard. I would buy the original KTM powerparts guard like yours without thinking twice if I could find it. Do let me know if u had any success with it, Aniket. Thanks guys!

[@gy8132]

Good work David, very informative and well set out clip. With your knowledge could I ask if a 2022 duke 390 back wheel will fit 2016 duke 390 as have been offered one with a new michelle tyre fitted.

[@MotoMirius]

As far as I'm aware they are the same wheel, but I can make no guarantees.

[@gy8132]

@@MotoMirius thanks for reply to my question.

[@subhoishere]

David, do you recommend installing the CAT Eliminator on our 2017+ KTM Duke 390 model? I'm running my motorcycle with BMC air filter, Coober air filter box performance lid, ngk spark plug, powertronic ecu, after market Slip-on exhaust and a 47T rear sprocket. Please advise.

[@MotoMirius]

Since I run a cat and presilencer delete and your setup is very similar to mine, yes I do. But, be aware that it does make the bike much louder so I run with a baffle in my slip on. Skäl. David.

[@barrybrooks4525]

Hi David, think we are doing a similar thing, I’ve bought a new 390 for fun, wheelies etc....quick question, did the Rok handlebars help the wheelie practice? FYI, I’ve ordered the crash protectors, 14t front sprocket....already sorted decat and exhaust......let me know your thoughts on my 14t front plus Rok handlebars as a plan to make my wheelie journey easier. Thx mate

[@MotoMirius]

Hi Barry, it's a great bike for wheelies - or so I"m told - my plans for wheelies was interrupted last year by high siding the bike and breaking my arm. Hopefully this year, now the bones are healed, I will make progress again and get around to fitting the wheelie bar. A lot of the stunt 390's I've seen have dirt bike bars like these, so yes, I would say it's going to be part of a stunt build that you will want to do. The bars didn't bend when I crashed the bike even though it ground the end a bit. 14 tooth will certainly help with control, and a bigger rear sprocket would then be the next upgrade. Skäl David

[@barrybrooks4525]

Thanks buddy. I’ll see how it goes with the 14t before changing the rear. Thx

[@AniketSen]

link for the crash protector?

[@shabeer1415]

Hi from the looks of the oil filter it seems you might have coolent mixing with the oil which could also explain the low coolent level, check it out.

[@MotoMirius]

I haven’t changed the oil yet and the level hasn’t increased so we will see! Skäl. David

[@shabeer1415]

@@MotoMirius yes, I went in to trouble last week by pressure washing the small sprocket side while that plastic shroud was removed. Water some how entered the engine got mixed with oil, took the bike to the service center where the oil and the filter changed on my expense.

[@shabeer1415]

Well mine is Duke 250 and it's same like 390,

[@MotoMirius]

Yes, no real difference aside from cylinder if I recall. If I have enough oil, I should be changing the oil today and we will see what it looks like. Coolant leaks are an issue with these bikes do always something to keep an eye on.

[@shabeer1415]

@@MotoMirius Yes, but the Dukes are fun to ride and your videos are very good, one more thing about the steering stem Bering, in Duke 250 it's ball race but I am thinking of upgrading to roller bearing from SKF , would you think this is a good idea.

[@jb-lu4vo]

Hj Davis, what do you think of the new Ktm390 adventure? I would like to use it at 50/50 road and trails every day. Thanks for the videos.

[@MotoMirius]

Hi Jesus, I'm a big fan of adventure bikes since I bought a Honda Transalp when they first launched in 1987. I think for your use it will be a good choice. Adventure bikes always have a bit of a conflict of identity. For touring you need something big which is then too heavy to hit technical trails. This looks a good option for local riding, especially if you live somewhere reasonably dry - wet trails always really need a proper dirt bike. Skäl David

[@mjacobim]

Great video! What's the stand that you are using? Link please...

[@MotoMirius]

[@rrvillareal2011]

Can you add software enhancement on a Duke 390, like the navigation, Monitor Tire Pressure, Cruise control and Automatic turn signal reset?

[@MotoMirius]

None of them are available through KTM which locks its software. Most of them are available from third party retailers but I'm not aware of any made for the 390 so adaptation with add on modules would be required. Tyre pressure would probably be the most difficult to integrate. Skäl David

[@davethumper4]

Hi David were did you buy the 16t front sprocket from,can't find one in the uk,cheers

[@MotoMirius]

Hard to find one in stock in the UK. I imported direct from the US manufacturer. There are some generic sprockets in the UK that will fit but I can never remember the specialist race suppliers in the UK that sell them. Skäl David

[@marcellovarez1678]

Hi Mirius, Hey I have a question. Have you ever got the "Low Oil Pressure" warning error on one of your dukes? I get the "L O P" error on the dash after it warms up. But the oil levels are ok. I used the right oil as the KTM manual indicates. So I'm thinking it's the sensor right? Can you guide me how to fix this issue? May be make a little video how to work on it. Thanks. Please let me know. Marcello

[@MotoMirius]

Hi Marcello. No, never had that. It could be the sensor, the problem is that if it isn't and the issue is the oil pump then you can very quickly damage the engine. As the engine revs increase so should the oil pressure and the error suggests that this may not be happening. Your dealer should have a meter to measure the oil pressure, so I would recommend that you get this checked first given that the seals on the oil pump are a known issue on some bikes. Skäl David

[@maxthebeast1311]

can you make a major service video? 15k km

[@MotoMirius]

15k is the same as 7.5k but with check of valve clearances and spark plug gap. I will be making the video of the latter at some point soon but I can't promise when. Skäl David

[@kenanaslan1298]

Hi David, can we install rc 390 samco thermostat bypass hose in to duke 390? Is there any benefits to bypass thermostat?

[@MotoMirius]

Hi Kenan. Samco makes different hose kits for the Duke and RC so I suggest asking then the question directly. If your Duke is a track bike then I don’t see the harm. But for a normal road bike I’m not so sure of the benefit of it. It’s not something I’d do if I lived somewhere cold. Skäl. David

[@DARK4MG]

Did you ever have a leak behind the front sprocket for your 390 duke? and would you happen to know why this could happen? Thanks

[@MotoMirius]

Can't say I've ever noticed an oil leak here on mine - this is where all the oil from the chain collects so it's not always obvious if you have an additional leak. Several possible causes here if you do, including a faulty seal - this is a bike with some low quality parts on it so I would look to rule that out first. Skäl David

[@MrBraamSmit]

Hi David, my dealer's just told me I need new shims for the 16000km service. Is this accurate or are they having me on?

[@MotoMirius]

Hi Braam, perfectly normal, some people need to change them before. If you have a post 2017 bike then the dealer should be using the 2019 tolerances as KTM decided the 2017 specifications were a bit tight. Skäl David

Hi. I used CRC but the official recommended product is Motorex Joker 440. Skäl. David

[@cavitecheckpoint]

Have you used and what is your opinion on automatic chain oilers?

[@MotoMirius]

I have used. I have one sitting on my shelf ready to fit. They do the job but I fit mostly to commuter or tourer type builds where high mileage and less chance to lubricate. They tend to be a little messy.

[@AniketSen]

also, with my first service ina couple of days time, what are the items/services that I should ask for and checks i should keep a keep eye on...?

[@MotoMirius]

The new first service is quite brief, it's mainly an oil and filter change with the screens cleaned and then a close inspection to make sure that everything was fitted properly in the factory and nothing is falling off. Previously they also checked the valve gaps, but KTM improved quality control on the engine builds so that is now just done as part of the main services. Make sure you talk to them about anything you have noticed that doesn't seem right and if it seems important then get their answer in writing so that there is no later warranty issue.

Hi sir how to repair duke 390 tank dent.

[@MotoMirius]

It depends on where the dent it and how big it is. The problem with some dents is that the metal around it often rises up. You can try pushing it out or pulling it out if you have the tools and then you normally have to fill with body filler and repaint. The simple route with the best result is to get a professional to do it for you. Skäl David

Dude - I got my motorcycle washed from a car wash center nearby and then they applied some polish to make it look squeaky clean and new...and while that worked, i don't know has happened, my brakes, both front and rear have lost almost all of its stopping potential...it's not air I can assure you....there's feedback on the levers, but i get no bite even while applying full force. Can you suggest me whats gone wrong? and mine is a new motorcycle, just 3 months old and i've only clocked 2.5K KMs... Please advice, I have a 250 Duke BS6 that comes with the 390 LED headlight unit....

[@MotoMirius]

Car washes often use shampoos and rinses that contain polishes and finishes. These are great for cars but not so much on bikes where the brakes are exposed. Just go ride somewhere without traffic and apply the brakes frequently, you should cut through the finish quickly.

[@MotoMirius]

I should also mention that these polishes are also likely to be on your tyres, so be careful when cornering.

[@AniketSen]

@@MotoMirius I've been doing that for the last couple of hours, you might be right, I see my braking's getting restored as i progressively ride and apply the brakes harshly, but this is at a very annoyingly steady and gradual pace...I guess I'll have to keep at it till the entire feedback is restored, might take another couple of days of riding like this, especially at this pace....but your advice helped nevertheless, Cheers! lesson learnt, no matter how much of a rigmarole it is, wash your own motorcycle with your own hands and with utmost care!

Hey. is it normal the Airfilter feels greasy? I'm running an aftermarket air filter. and also I see greasy all over the engine intake when I shine the light.

[@MotoMirius]

It is normal for the airbox to be a little greasy because it is used to vent engine vapour which will contain oil. Too much oil might indicate an issue with seals in the engine, but a little is normal
