BHPian DevilzzzzOwn<\/strong> recently shared this with other enthusiasts.<\/p>\n Fellow KTM Owners,<\/p>\n Here is my query for you:<\/p>\n Last week, post fuel up, I tried to reset my Odo and the button just sank in and the screen went blank. The Mode button is fine. The SET button top is ripped and I don\u2019t hear or feel the click on pressing it. The rubber is over 9 years old and would be prone to stiffness, so it broke off when I pressed it. Took a video with Headlamp on Full Beam to show that the other functions are working like High Beam, High RPM, and ABS. Unable to upload video so posting the photo below.<\/p>\n Apart from the screen, everything else was working. I wasn\u2019t stranded. So I went home and completed my weekend ride near Pune.<\/p>\n Coming to the issue, I forgot about it once I got back from the ride. The next morning, our help washed the bike (as he\u2019s normally instructed to do) and I suspect some water might have seeped into the hole.<\/p>\n I connected with KTM since I just recently changed some parts, and they asked for the entire unit to be changed. Was given a rough figure of 8K for the change. The thing is, just because of the small hole (as you can see below) does it make sense to change the entire unit? I searched online for a FnG that specialises in Meters and the reviews of Bombay Meter Company, Pune were very positive. But I am also worried about obvious spurious parts being used.<\/p>\n Has anyone else gone through this? And what does TBhp suggest I do? Change the entire unit or check if the FnG can fix the issue. Thanks in advance for the suggestions.<\/p>\n P.S. –<\/strong> This is the only vehicle that I have ever ridden that still gives me THE FUZZ every time I ride it. Not sure about the 2nd or the 3rd gen, but the first gen Dukes have a special place in our motoring history. Numerous times I have taken a test ride of a Versys or Trident with the intention of swapping my bike. But every time I sit on the KTM, the same thought comes to mind. What exactly IS WRONG with my KTM? And then the test rides are forgotten.<\/p>\n I am never letting go of this bike!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Here’s what BHPian ebonho<\/strong> had to say about the matter:<\/p>\n Meter console shells are available on Amazon for 750-1000 bucks. Worth a try if the console itself is working properly.<\/p>\n Otherwise, the console itself is some 7-8k.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Check out BHPian comments for more insights and information.<\/p>\n\n
