Read complaints for KTM 1290 SUPER DUKE R (2016)
Pulsing, squealing brakes, warped front rotor due to improper mounting clearances on front wheel. Causing inconsistent braking during slow speed. Brakes are catching even without applying brake pressure. Present since i purchase the motorcycle with 83 miles on the odometer on 4/28/18. Was not present during test ride. I'm outside of the warranty so dealer will not fix for free.
My motorcycle's front brakes create a harmonic noise while coasting and applying the front brakes at low speeds. The problem is so bad that the handlebars vibrate to the point of concern and can be hand numbing. Ktm has acknowledged the problem but is unwilling to fix it. It has been in the shop multiple times and they have made a few attempts, but they are unwilling to try anymore. They are saying it's a normal feature. The noise and vibration can be witnessed just pushing the motorcycle.
