What is the 0-100km/h acceleration time of the Duke 390?
2 Answers
Duke 390's 0-100km/h acceleration time is 5.14 seconds. Here are some extended details: Slip Mode: The front features a split-type LED headlight design, and the fuel tank capacity has been increased to 13.4L, providing 100km more range than the previous model. The brake discs have also been upgraded to larger ones, and the ABS system is highly effective. This ABS system also includes a Supermoto slip mode, which essentially allows only the rear wheel's ABS to be turned off, making it easier for the bike to drift. Configuration: There are also fresh updates in terms of configuration. For example, the new Duke 390 comes with a full-color TFT LCD instrument panel, full LED lighting, electronic throttle, and a slipper clutch. The KTM Duke 390's instrument panel can also connect to a mobile phone via Bluetooth for answering calls, skipping tracks, and more.
I'm the type who gets pumped up the moment I sit on a motorcycle. The KTM Duke 390's 0 to 100 km/h acceleration is around 5.5 seconds, which sounds fast, but the actual feeling is even cooler. That instant surge when you twist the throttle gets your heart racing, especially when overtaking on the highway. I've tried a few acceleration tests—on dry roads, it's easy to hit that time, but on wet or windy days, you need to be careful; losing control could lead to a skid. Quick acceleration isn't just fun—it also improves riding efficiency, like making emergency maneuvers more agile. But I recommend riders start with slow-speed practice to get familiar with throttle response before going full throttle. Always wear full protective gear. Acceleration performance depends on engine tuning and rider weight—lighter riders might get closer to 5 seconds.
