Over 20% bump in power is pretty damn impressive. You're definitely gonna notice that on track! Great video!!

Looks great! Did the full exhaust, power commander, quick shifter on my 19 KTM duke. Definitely felt the difference on track, the Duke is more of a blast on track then my Ducati Monster 1100s! Great build for us that love little bikes!!

I absolutely love watching bike builds. Would definitely vote to see more like this.

Watched the whole series in one sitting. Great stuff man

Just binged this whole thing, I loved it! Been eyeing an Rc390 for the street to go next to my Tenere 700. It's set up perfectly for bombing down fire roads but leaves me wanting when I'm on the road with my sport bike riding friends :D

I can't afford to trick out my 2015 R1. I have to watch these videos, living vicariously through the men (and ladies) who do!

Awesome build! I'd love to see some track footage

Fresh upgrades enjoying my Race Bike Ohlins is legit 🤟

Awesome build, looks like it will a blast to ride.

The fan was done like that very intentionally. It has to do with Euro 5 and California smog requirements. Its designed to get the bike up to operating temperature as fast as possible and keep it there. Bike probably runs 220F+ and also very lean.

We want this type of rc in India

I had to take out my swing-arm pivot-bolt to mount my rear sets as well (CB300R), although my setup wasn't as nice as yours. I hoisted it up with a cable reel stand by the passenger pegs. It definitely felt sketchy, but it's the best I could do with the tools available to me :) I actually bought a second bolt ($15) and swapped it out in place (so it swing-arm didn't fall out), which made me feel better at least.

Really enjoyed watching this bike come along. Keep up the good work.

good job. personally i love budget bike/car builds. like to the point of being funny but also trying hard to end up with a decent trackbike or track car thats worth riding. like a ninja250, sv650, ninja650, older 600s...to name a few ideas

Love the series. @canyonchasers is fast on track, whatever bike he's riding. Humble presentation online; crushes in person.

Wow, Mrs bike look stunning I would not want to ride that on track but rather cruise in town turning heads, job well done.

what a beast...nice bike dave

Beautiful bike brotha no doubt be safe and enjoy out there

Love it, I have one as well (and an S1000rr) but there is something so intimate about the RC, and the fact that you can have great fun fettling it. Loved the Mesh / fan remove idea...

This has been a fun series to watch for me largely because of the problem solving you’ve done. Plus making a fun bike MORE fun is always a plus! Let me toss an idea: I’ll bet you could put together something interesting around the idea of taking a “vintage” bike (read: carburetors) and upgrading /modernizing it.

Man, now I really need to get my 390 back together. Between your vids, and the whole 390 crew I saw at Gingerman over the weekend, I've decided to get hot on this 3 year back burner project. Lol

Would love to see another track day to see how the speeds compare. Really enjoy all your videos.

Had a great time watching this build. I'm really surprised the percentage of horsepower gain you were able to get from that tune!

👍👍. Double thumbs up on the build! Thank you for treating that little bike to this extent. Your making me miss it 🤣😂🤣

great work.the bike looks fantastic.would love to see how it runs

Now it really sounds like a moto3 bike, love it

Awesome series Dave. Great to see how you can take a simple small bike and transform it into what looks like a super fun machine. I wish I was as clever as you are. 🤔 🤓🏍️🏍️🇬🇧

Omg... finally someone making good video about ktm rc...

That looks amazing! Looks like it should be on the front row grid of moto3

Great job

Insane bike, i'd love one so much.

Really great bike. I'm thinking of getting a 390 Duke for training.

That looks badass

2022 wheels and hollow axle tube fit would shave a bit more weight for not a lot of cash once they are avaliable used for sure. Love the content

love this ktm rc 390 user from philippines u deserve more views on this ♥♥♥

46 at the wheel? Damn! What's the throttle response like now? Great little series - any chance of a comparison between first track day and present? 👍

What a great outcome for a great project! No insult intended but the baby pumpkin orange racer is "cute" but growls like a big dog. I wish my R9T could sound like that!

Nice work. I don't know why pie cuts in the exhaust look so good, but they do.

A satisfying end to an awesome prelude. 46 at the wheel. Impressive! Swap them wheels to the newer light weight ones, and it should be blast.

Nice job! I’m lucky I can change the oil on my bike

As a first time owner of a 2022 RC 390, this build was really fun and exciting to watch. It gives me the idea of track building my RC as well when I move to my second bike. Definitely wanna know if I can max the current top speed of 180kmph on it. Any ideas of ECU remapping?

Rockin’! … now give it away!

I just bought a ktm rc 390 it’s comes in august 1st im so excited

Nicely done. I wish i can do to my bike too.

beautiful

Brother I was planning to get a Ninja 650 as a budget twin cylinder but you have changed my mind for RC 390. Treat to watch you work

really like this series plz do more

siiiiick!

If that KTM is anything like my RD350 from the mid 70's, a 20+ bump in power will transform that bike. Don Vesco's shop did my RD engine mods and it went from a 110 MPH top speed to 125+. Darn that bike was fun! Home made rear sets ( no one made any back then), 36mm Mukuni's and TZ250 expansion chambers. You would have loved riding that bike! Is there any way to send you a pic? Yes to more builds and especially a comparison of before and after at the track.

damn 46 hp is sick, in Indonesia there is someone who upgrades the zx25r engine to 300cc and gets 51hp, I'm curious if it's a race on the track🥵

I wish to be you one day , tweaking and working around machines

we have the same exhaust and airbox!haha 💪

The fan shroud has that specific shape so that the radiator fan throws out hot air away from Rider's legs.

Amazing series well done! Does the high mount exhaust heat up the rear shock reservoir?

4:30 - There are actual instructions? That's a reason alone to go with DynoJet. I'm so used to aftermarket instructions being a single page that says "remove any necessary parts and install the new part; reassemble".

The fan is designed that way to keep the wind from causing the fan blades to free spin/back spin wearing out the bearings.

You mentioned the flat throttle response coming out of corners prior to tuning. Has that improved? How significant? I'm particularly curious about the improvement in performance on exit corners at the track.

I dream that KTM would slot their 300XCW two stroke engine in this chassis. It would definitely bring me out of motorcycle “retirement”. The RC390 tempts me as it is….but I long for lightweight two strokes.

In india, stock RC 390 from showroom comes with 45 bhp

46hp is a great improvement for a single since rc390s get 37-40 on the dyno some even get less.. I think that airbox also did some improvement on the torque numbers so did the Power Commander.. awesome build, so sad the series ends but I am so satisfied with the result.. Good Job Sir 👍..

What tire do you use ? Amazing.

I didnt read every comment, but would un shrouding the fan along with the radiator shroud, and a cooler thermostat be better if my 390 is not a dedicated track bike?

Carbon Fiber Wheels. They will help tremendously with drive out of the corner. Like gaining a few hp

Can you post more about RC3C ～～ ??? Because I have 2017 RC390 ABS So I love this bike want to see more Build RC3C In Track～ Post more RC3C in track～ please

I envy you man. You and your shop, your tools, and the fact that you have the time and resources. Question though, I know some factory stock 390s (duke or RC) can put out 42-44HP. Installing an aftermarket muffler without tuning can take away 0.5-1HP. Installing a more free flowing air filter and aftermarket exhaust, without tuning, might take away 2HP. I was expecting that your bike will put out maybe 48HP and above because the Power Commander has a "performance tune" available for the KTMs (according to my friend). But anyway, did your tuner tune for a specific AFR or it was just a ramp run tune to smooth out the power curve? If your tuner targeted a specific AFR, care to share the value? 13.2? 13.5? 13.8? My apologies man, I am abusing you with questions. Since you ran the bike on the dyno, is it true that it's running way too lean from factory? I remember this was my same question I posted on your first video of this series. That's it man, I am sorry for asking too much. Congratulations man. It's not your bike but you put part of your soul in it building it to an awesome motorcycle. More power and ride safely for Mrs. CanyonChasers.

Do you have a map for powertronic rc390?

where i can get the fairing and bodykit?

Did you do these mods before or after the "Welcome to My Helmet // RC390 Full Session UMC West Track // Episode 1" video? I am still debating which bike to choose for my first racing season 2024. A Ninja 400 or the new 500 (they should have called it a 450!) would probably be the smarter move but I just hate how soft the frame is and that everyone and their uncle seems to have one. ZX4-RR would be awesome but way more $$$ to buy and maintain for racing, and pushes you into a higher class. Have you guys looked at the new Aprilia RS457? I have a 790 that is heavily modified but too powerful and expensive to race for a first season.

with the new airbag are you running an open lid? I just pulled the trigger on the same box with over sized fuel injector. and DNA filter

It's a shame that the Kawasaki ZX-25R won't be available in North America. That looks like an insane low displacement race bike

is it porting polished?? idk if rc390 can make 50hp on wheel its gonna be awesome

Just a comment: "qty of air to make the bike cooler"? Noup.... what you really want is more velocity of the air, that's how many deflectors or radiators shapes works, creating venturi to speed up the air to reducing the air temperature and accelerating the air throughout the radiator coils. Not sure if that's affect your specific KTM. Same with the airbox, the shape is made it to reduce turbulence creating more speed inside the chamber

How can i get the air box?please let me know

sorry I meant to ask, do you know what you have the weight down to?

with the exhaust couldnt u have saved more weight with a smaller exhaust even like a slip on sc project

can you tell me with that body race so can i keep the stock light ?? cause i not used for race, i'm using for run on city please tell me soon ? this second time i ask this question

Why did he remove thr coolant pips? Really curious

What top speed did you achieve

What year is your 390? I looked for a power commander for the 2021 390 Duke but it looks like they only support up to 2019 :(

Upload more footage from the cam plz

Hi What year is this bike?

Off topic but I wanted to request a topic for an upcoming video... I had an off once decelerating into a traffic circle using only engine braking. The rear wheel ran over and slid on a flattened palm leaf. I lost control as the rear end came around quickly and I low sided on my 2013 Multistrada. My assumption is that this would have been avoided if I wasn't engine braking. So my question is, when should engine braking be avoided and when and how should it be used? Also, does this change for track vs street or in certain conditions? I have resorted to pulling in the clutch and trail braking with the front brake in similar corner decel conditions. Is this correct? Thank you.

what's its top speed..??

Bro can u make video of installing under belly

How much Final hp? Man🤔 i think 52-54

This or R3?

Seriously youdidso Mughal d ended up with only 46 h. What a wasrwof time effort and money!

For anyone wanting to do track days or race..... I typically see everyone worrying about horsepower first. What you spend on pipe, power commander, and whatever else might squeeze out a couple horsepower, you'd be better off leaving it stock, and spending your money on suspension. You can only go as fast (turning) as your suspension allows and stock suspension is crap. Horsepower is only king if your drag racing!!! If you have money to do both then do everything. 20 years of road racing, and coaching all I see is new guys immediately doing pipe and power commander, often crashing trying to keep up with someone who has done all the proper suspension mods. I guarantee if you buy two brand new identical bikes, do horsepower mods on one, and only suspension mods on the other, you turn faster and the riding is more enjoyable with faster lap times on the one with suspension set up. If money is tight, put ego aside, get Traxxion Dynamics or someone who is expert in building and setting up your suspension,. Preferably don't try to do it yourself because some already know what works best on particular models. You can even make friends with someone at track that's doing ridiculous fast lap times, and they'll likely be happy to help you. A particular bike might handle better just moving fork tube up or down 1-2 mm. How many even bother to set up proper static sag? Is your chain too tight it won't let rear squat under hard throttle? I struggled for years racing until Traxxion Dynamics worked on my bike. That day was my first ever win, and the bike felt much easier to ride fast. I visited my son while he was coaching last week for 3 days at Roebling Road. There were some real fast experts there but mostly track day guys and first year racers there. Not one new guy didn't have a pipe on their bike. I was shocked how many crashed going as slow as they were. One had to get helicopter life flight to hospital. Sadly horsepower is so popular KZfaq is full of pipe, mapping, dyno numbers, almost zero talk about suspension. Suspension set up will improve your confidence as well. One guy there crashed a brand new S1000RR. He had pipe and mapping but found out you can't brake from 160mph to 100mph and pitch it into turn one with stock suspension. With the right suspension you can do 115 through that same turn. Just some advice here from an old guy. 😁

음성듣기번역하기언어전환영어 What's the setting value for the SoGear waiter?

Is this a 390 well I’ve never seen one in India

Little bike😭🤣🤣

Thanks for playing really loud music during the dyno… I didn’t at all want to hear the bike with the new exhaust

They really make you pay for that whole airbox? Might as well just sell the different velocity stack and save on waste

Great build man!! Can I invite you to check mine? We did exactly the same 😂

Even company made looks bullshit . But this built looks great
