KTM Duke 390 Review : 6 Pros & 5 Cons

There are several design changes and new elements on the third-generation Duke 390. For starters, it gets a new Split Trellis frame with an aluminium subframe, which has brought about weight savings, without compromising on strength.

Spectacular new 399 cc LC4C engine! Torque and power delivery will most likely outlast the road for most owners
A delight to handle on track as well as on the streets. Very nimble and flickable around the corners
Adjustable suspension settings are now available as standard for the front and the rear. Helps you customise your ride experience
Full suite of electronics. Has customisable ABS, Traction Control, Ride modes, and even Launch control!
Entire range of features like Connectivity features (calls, music, turn-by-turn navigation), Bluetooth pairing to Phone and even a wired/wireless Headset
Top quality build. Fit and finish levels are good too

While the low-end torque has improved by almost 5 Nm, you’ll continue to go 3-2-1 on the gears while within the city
The Quickshifter, while a huge leap from the outgoing model, still isn’t textbook perfect during gear shifts
OEM tyres don’t match up to the performance the bike is capable of
Narrow seat can get uncomfortable on longer journeys
Looks have generally been polarising on the KTMs
