INJECTION: The intricate engine design, state-of-the-art injection electronics and close-ratio, 6-speed transmission not only help the KTM 390 DUKE to achieve white-knuckle performance, but also extremely low fuel consumption.

KTM 390 Duke owners are being treated by Evotech Performance with a wide range of new parts. Add race style with a new tail tidy and exhaust hanger, ramp up the crash protection with various bobbins and guards, and make maintenance easier with paddock stand bobbins. And none of it is particularly expensive, either...

The entire range of KTM Duke motorcycles- have been updated with new colourways. See the photos here. While we expected the KTM 490s to be here this year,

The KTM 390 Duke has always been a feature-rich motorcycle and gets an LED lighting system, a TFT screen along with Bluetooth connectivity, ride-by-wire and switchable ABS(including a Supermoto mode). In the latest iteration, the 390 Duke also gets a bi-directional quick-shifter.

The KTM 390 Duke is powered by a 373cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled motor producing the same power and torque figures of 43.5PS and 37Nm as it did in its previous iteration. KTM has revised the exhaust routing for its latest iteration -- it now runs below the engine and not around the cylinder heads. With that, the ground clearance of the KTM 390 Duke has taken a massive hit, slipping to 151mm from 175mm. There are no revisions to the six-speed gearbox with a slipper clutch. The addition of a bi-directional quickshifter adds to the sporty nature of the 390 Duke.

The KTM 390 Duke runs the same steel split-trellis frame as earlier with a 41mm open-cartridge USD fork and preload-adjustable monoshock handling suspension duties. Braking is taken care of by a ByBre four-piston radial calliper acting on a large 320mm rotor. You get a smaller 230mm disc at the rear with a single-piston floating caliper. The grippy Metzeler rubber comes shod on 17-inch alloy rims.

The KTM 390 Duke manages to be the raciest motorcycle in the sub-400cc naked category. Its sharp looks and equally sharp handling make it a hoot to ride in any situation. And despite the extra asking price, it still remains a good value-for-money proposition. It goes up against the likes of BMW G 310 R,Bajaj Dominar 400 andHonda CB300R. For the same price though, you could also get yourself theTVS Apache RR 310,Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 orRoyal Enfield Continental GT 650.

The KTM 390 Duke is the lightweight version of the Austrian’s company’s fabled Duke, offering a liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine with 43 horsepower and a dry weight of just over 300 pounds. The naked middleweight has been praised left and right, called “rocket-powered scalpel” and “whippet-thin” (Sunday Times).

In the USA, the 390 Duke and its sport bike sibling, the RC 390, compete with the likes of other lightweight sport bikes such as the Honda CBR500 and Kawasaki Ninja 400. The Duke has been tested to run 0-60 in 5.5 seconds, with a top speed of just under 105 mph.

While the Duke 390 certainly isn’t as expensive to insure as the larger 790 Duke or 1290 Super Duke, it may still fall into the “performance bike” or even “hooligan bracket” with some insurers — making for expensive rates. For this reason, it’s crucial to compare quotes from multiple insurers.

A wide array of variables impact your motorcycle insurance premiums:  make/model of bike, driving record, age, location, coverage level, storage location, even credit score. That said, we have gathered some example rates from real 390 Duke owners:

The 390 Duke was developed as part of a collaboration between Austria’s KTM and Indian motoring giant Bajaj. The bike debuted in 2012 and went on sale in the USA in 2015, with the RC 390 sport bike version following shortly thereafter. The bike has scored high marks for build quality and agility since its inception — lauded as a sporty everyday commuter and runabout.

The bike runs 0-60 mph in 5.5 seconds, with a quarter mile time of 14 seconds, a top speed of 104 mph, and a wet weight of just 338 pounds. In 2017, the 390 Duke underwent a mild update, with new LED lighting, adjustable levers, larger front disc brake, and a higher seat height.

We recommend both comprehensive and collision coverage, which will protect your Duke 390 in case of accidents, theft, and “acts of God.” What’s more, if you financed your Duke, the lender will require you to carry these coverages — together with liability, this is known as “full coverage.”

The Duke is a popular mount for college and grad students across the country. Fortunately, many insurers will discount your premiums by 10% if you maintain a high GPA. Ask your insurer for more information.

ENGINE & EXHAUST: The KTM 390 DUKE finds itself more at home the steeper you lean it. Its state-of-the-art, single-cylinder engine with twin overhead camshafts is perfectly tuned to conquer every turn you take on – with the torque to hold the line, and the snappy response to blast out from the apex and into the next bend.
