Show Summary: “Let’s all do our part in flattening the curve and helping our frontliners.”
**This episode was aired and recorded live in April 2020, at the height of the first COVID lockdown in Metro Manila.**
The lockdown has been immensely challenging for us, especially for the frontliners in the medical field and essential services, who protect and provide us with our basic needs. Staying at home is one way to show them our unyielding support and help flatten the curve until we overcome the pandemic.
For some, staying at home can feel monotonous and unexciting. But there are multiple ways to turn boredom into something exciting and productive. For KTM riders, you can maintain the adrenaline kick by cleaning and disinfecting your bikes and accessories. You can warm up your engines at least once a week for five to ten minutes to sustain your bike’s superior power. Do this in an open space to avoid inhaling toxic fumes and overheating the headlight. These are just some of the many things you can do during your pause from riding.
For more practical tips, listen until the end of the episode as Nani and Bimbo walk you through other lockdown activities and special announcements for KTM riders! Please share this with your friends and family who are into motorcycles to give them the thrill of riding experience even while at home.
Exceptional Highlights:
All KTM riders are granted a 30-day extension for the PMS schedule and warranty period during the lockdown (in 2020). This means that if your PMS schedule falls within the lockdown period, you will have another 30 days to complete it. The warranty period is likewise extended.
Extension of 30 days also applies to KTM riders with expiring warranty claims falling during the lockdown period (in 2020).
A KTM PH text message (SMS) was sent to frontliners who are KTM riders to help with repairs and technical concerns. KTM will then provide online diagnostics and support. Through this initiative (in 2020), KTM hopes to aid frontliners as they tirelessly carry on with their jobs every day.
Show Highlights:
When will the lowering kits and crash guard for KTM 390 Adventure become available?
12:45 Nani
We are expecting the units to arrive in the country in a few months. Soon as they are here, lowering kits and crash guards will be ordered and will become available shortly after.
Do you recommend the KTM 390 Duke for a beginner rider?
16:00 Nani
It would depend on where you intend to use it and for what purpose. For long rides and when using the expressway, yes, 390 Duke will give you that naked performance. However, if you have just started biking and riding within the Metro only, I suggest getting the 200 Duke. It’s a lightweight fighter with a heavyweight's uppercut to give you ultimate power when you hit the streets.
Where can we request for the warranty booklet?
30:33 Nani
There is no need to request the booklet anymore. The warranty and history will be made available online. Email us, and we will provide you with the page where you can see the warranty file.
30:54 Bimbo
When visiting the page, simply input your VIN (vehicle identification number) and delivery certificate number to see the history.
