KTM 390 Duke ABS recalled in India for faulty front sprocket

KTM India has recalled the 390 Duke ABS in India over a faulty front sprocket. The recalled motorcycles could have a problem with the locking plate of the front sprocket that could lead to the misalignment and force the off the teeth.

The actual numbers of affected bikes are not known but the company claims that till date there have been zero incidents reported in connection with this fault. Bikes manufactured before March 2014 have been affected and the company has fixed the issue on bikes manufactured after March 2014. KTM dealers are contacting the affected customers and have asked to visit the service center. The service center will inspect the bikes and replace the sprocket, if necessary, free of cost. This complete process is likely to take around 30 minutes.

This is the first time the company has issued recall for the 390 Duke ABS. We are not sure if the recall is applicable to the bikes exported from Chakan.
