Hey Guys,I have been riding my duke a little since I installed the motobox and the fmf pipes. The bike seems to be running good no popping. Power is good. I still have the stock map.
I rode it today to and from work. It was a hot day about 110+degrees on the way and about 85 on the way home. Here is the the thing I feel more heat on my legs, more than stock.
My thinking is because the old air box is gone. Is this a normal thing to feel the heat? My motor temp is normal.
Next is I only have about 16-20 miles on the clock since the install. After I turn the bike off I smell like something is burning. I think it is the new exhaust. Smells like the metal. How long does it take for new pipes to break in? I checked the bike everything looks ok.
I am taking it to the dlr this wed. I hope they got there stuff in from KTM so they can load the akra map when they do the 600 miles service. I just want to make sure I did everything right on the install. It was pretty intence for me. I had the whole bike apart My bro was there who is a mech. We did alot in one day the box ,the pipes and the tail tidy. I am an old school guy these modern bikes are much more complicated. I know most of you guys have done the motobox change I love the product, thinks it's the bomb. Just want to make sure I did not screw anything up. I am just worried about the heat and the burning smell I live in a hot climate. It justs feels the bike is running hot. The temp guage says everything is ok. Is that enough? Thanks guys for any input.
