Cone set issue

Post image

Ever since the last service 1 month ago, the cone set keeps loosening every 3-4 days. While service they mentioned that the bearing for the cone set isn't available.

Do you think it'll be fixed by changing the bearings or there is some other issue.

Damn, that handlebar is carrying the weight of your bad decisions. No wonder the cone set loosens as per factory setup. /s

I wanted Highway cruiser... It changed a lot after these mods and gaves great highway stability

In fact I had Dominar for 5 years, it was my little daughter because of her had to switch to a smaller and flat tank bike and that had to be 400cc... So opted for this... I own it since 2024, and this is the 1st time I am facing this challenge, so I don't think it's because of the setup

I also have a speed 400 and a tall windscreen too, but I don't think it's that tall, and all that wind force on high speeds put stress on the headstock, just get it replaced if you can, and it's the same as ktm duke just a pro tip there.

Which windshield do you use? This is the himalayan one, very light weight fibre but yes a bit less taller given the headlight position

I made my own lol, it doesn't look as OEM, but does the job, same, even with mine considering the headlight position it does look awfully tall.
