KTM Duke 125 cutting out help!

[Rob92buck]

Ive got the ktm duke 125. It is 3 months old and it has had to be recovered 2 times now and in total 3 visits to the garage for this issue

I have lost the abs light it flashes up service not reset. I have had its service. Low battery keeps showing.. The main issue currently i will be riding and the bike starts bogging the rev counter dissapears and the bike cuts out.

I got the bike back from the garage yesterday. Just before garage closed. the garage said was down to HD lead not being completely tight with the spark plug and they had sorted the issue. I rode the bike 3/4 mins got on to a A road as i reached 50MPH the bike bogged and cut out. I got them to recover the bike straight away.

Can anyone help if they have experianced this?.

They appear to be cheap Indian bikes with unreliable components that fail repeatedly, sold at an eye watering markup in the UK.

Sad thread is sad.

If it's 3 months old then it'll be under warranty so give it to the dealer and hopefully they'll lend you a more reliable bike while they fix yours.

My solution is to sell the bike ASAP.

Did my L plate time on the Duke and it was a horrific bike. So much so, the second I turned 24 I did my DAS and got myself something Japanese and reliable.

I had the Duke for a little under a year and it caused me so many problems from engine cutting out for no reason, refusing to start, mist under my digital screen etc etc etc. I know its a great looking bike but my advise would be chop it in and get something reliable. You can get a nice little used CBR125 for about half the price!

Interesting auction that, apparently that bike does 90mph and even stranger only 45MPG? That would worry me more than the BS top speed claims. But anyway, missing the point, get a nice Jap 125 just maybe not that one
