In my opinion its too hard to get a bs3 390 with this condition like u explained for sale. I think we need to compromise certain things ( except major issues like engine problems) while buying an old 390 and we need to take care of the small small problems by servicing or replacing the items. Like that only i have done in 2022 😊

Wow seper duke but now bs6 model has came
I have found a 2017 registered bs3 duke 390 in a good condition with all the hardware working fine. The engine however has a mild humming or whistling sound coming from it though and I don't know if that is a good sign. The Owner is asking for 1.4 lakhs as the last price. Is it worth it to buy the bike at that price??
@swazinazi1454

The whistling/ humming sound from the bike could be due to a vacuum leak please check the air filter intake pipe/box for cracks. Also i feel 1.4 is a bit too much try finding one around 1.1-1.2 L

How to check abs working properly ??
@swazinazi1454
4 жыл бұрын
Take the bike to a reasonable speed 40-50 kmph And jam the brakes ( if dual channel press both breaks, if single channel press one ) The bikes wheels should not lock. As the bike starts skidding while pressing thr brakes the abs will get active and brakes will be released . This will happen a few times in quick succession until the bike completely stops. In short while coming to a halt your bike should not skid or wheel hop. Ps- this is not s foolproof method to check ABS but it's the most basic way to tell if the abs sensors are working. Also wear a helmet and take precautions while testing out ABS. It maybe risky if ABS is faulty. Also do additional research online. Thanks :)
