That's not the original tail, right? Looks quite nice.

Bike is great, gets quite hot around the legs at traffic light. Bike fan pushes out a lot of hot air. When moving, the bike is perfect.

Brakes are super good, and the turning is amazing.

Clutch and changing gear is super sensitive. Have to release much slower than other bikes, first gear and go too slow also bike stall.

Overall love this bike.

I've heard of this before, too. Engine has high compression ratio and is single cylinder, so your calves can get turned into grilled drumsticks at stops esp. if the weather is warm.

Other than that, I'm glad you're enjoying your bike. She looks good with the short-tail. I always wanted to know how it's like to ride something as lightweight as a Duke, and kind of regretted choosing Z250SL over the 250 Duke years ago, despite the issues associated with Bajaj-KTM machines. A 136~139 kg bike @ 390cc with dual channel ABS as standard is an amazing package.
