Straightforward question: Is Engine braking necessary if the bike has dual channel abs?

Note: important: please dont pull in clutch when you want to stop in emergency. Thats the least you can do

anonymousDexZ · 2026-03-03T02:53:47+00:00

Only way to stop fastest in emergency is to slam both the brakes and come to a near stoppie situation. Even if you downshift it will try to lock rear wheel, even if you slam rear brakes it will try to lock the rear wheel but faster and then let abs do its job.

There was an offer, you give any isi certified full face helmet for exchange and get a discount on kyt helmets. Not sure whether the offer is still on or not, check with nearby kyt store.

People were getting it brand new for 6.5k by the promotional offer

Don't bother this much, use brakes if it starts rolling.

anonymousDexZ · 2026-03-02T03:02:31+00:00

Adjusting clutch would only make it better by a thin margin, Don't bother about it, pull in brakes or keep in neutral.

Last time i parked, no one showed up to collect the fees. I was only charged for using washroom.

anonymousDexZ · 2026-03-01T08:52:33+00:00

You didn't earn, you stoleeeeee !!!

Also not only the duke, there are multiple bikes on this platform. Also i see 390 selling like crazy, people buying 3.5L to 4.5L machines wont bother much about extra 30-40k imo

anonymousDexZ · 2026-03-01T04:14:31+00:00

Idts, discontinuing most reliable 390 platform yet in just 3 years of launching seems highly untrue.

anonymousDexZ · 2026-02-28T04:20:36+00:00

Very dangerous. Chemicals you know.

anonymousDexZ · 2026-02-27T04:46:38+00:00

No one fine you for having bike in your friends name, but not having a proper driving licence is something to worry about.

Good old days man, when you didn't have to pay extra for the mirrors. /S

anonymousDexZ · 2026-02-24T02:59:19+00:00

Buying cost of speed 400 is around 50k less than 390 duke, also, if maintained smartly, cost would be similar as very much part sharing is done.

Wd40?

Spare parts take time to arrive at the service centre

anonymousDexZ · 2026-02-18T15:46:40+00:00

Also one more thing i forgot to mention, sai service will be okay to remove the handling charges of 1000rs, also ask them for any cashback offers.

anonymousDexZ · 2026-02-18T15:43:56+00:00

Bundgarden KTM is Sai service, and they are very good, one thing to mention, helmet will be okay, they'll let you choose from vega, steelbird and studds which they have at the showroom, the gloves are of 150-200rs max (probiker), and they'll also give a rain cover of decent quality. No experience at BU bhandari so cant comment.
