Updates on my 2013 Duke 390: Repaint, parts change & ceramic treatment

The exhaust is all put together with new dampers everywhere.

BHPian SunnyBoi recently shared this with other enthusiasts.

The alloys had minor marks on them, so cleaned them out.

Cleaned the sprocket carrier, looked so good when clean!

Alloys and sprocket carriers get the ceramic treatment. This made maintaining the wheels way easier. The centre of the wheels looks terrible in comparison, with rusted rotors, bolts and all that filth in those nooks and crannies!

Old crusty screws on the side panels. Replaced with fresh Stainless Steel units.

The grab handle was painted and replaced.

New parts for the Duke: RH Fork Protector, Toolkit, ABS Rings and Rotor Bolts front and back, Apache RTR Handle grips, Side stand bolt and exhaust bushes.

The exhaust is all put together with new dampers everywhere. The heat shield is held with new SS bolts with anti-seize on them. The nut inside one of the bolts holding the heat shield broke inside, I had to take the exhaust again to the welder who cut a small portion, retrieved the broken bit and welded on a new M6 nut in it.
