1 Answers
KTM 390 has a top speed of 170 km/h. The KTM 390 is the second-generation model of the 390 Duke, with a seat height of 830 mm. It has transitioned from the previous underbelly exhaust design to a right-side exhaust system and replaced the traditional cable-operated throttle with an electronic throttle. These changes enable multiple riding mode switches and make the bike even lighter. Features of the KTM 390: Excellent Instrument Panel Functionality: Although the 390 Duke was initially positioned as an entry-level model for the European A2 license category, its features are far from basic and can even rival those of larger-displacement high-end models. One of the most praised aspects by owners is the 390 Duke's full-color LCD instrument panel. Compact like a traditional gauge, it offers tablet-like functionality, displaying speed, RPM, fuel level, coolant temperature, and electronic control information at a glance. All controls can be intuitively operated via buttons on the left handlebar. The highly functional instrument panel has earned praise from 12% of owners. Lightweight Body: The Duke 390 is powered by a 373.2cc single-cylinder engine and features a steel tube trellis frame design, which achieves an optimal balance between rigidity and flexibility while maintaining a lightweight profile. The 390 Duke weighs just 149 kg (dry weight), making it one of the lightest in its class. This lightweight design contributes to agile handling, earning approval from 15% of owners. Strong Power Output: The 390 Duke is equipped with a 373.2cc liquid-cooled 4V single-cylinder engine, delivering a maximum power output of 44 ps and a peak torque of 37 Nm, transmitted to the rear wheel via a six-speed gearbox with a slipper clutch. Owners report that the single-cylinder engine's characteristics provide excellent low-RPM torque, making it easy to handle mountain rides without needing to rev near the redline. The 373.2cc liquid-cooled 4V single-cylinder engine produces 44 ps of maximum horsepower and 37 Nm of maximum torque. KTM 390 Drawbacks: Riding comfort is subpar.
