re: KTM Duke 390 Review & first impression: xBhp Exclusive
Indians might find the supermoto styling a bit off Road type but this bike is sufficiently bonkers. I didn't find a single reviewer who had anything particularly bad to say about it. Indian bikers have matured over the years with the market. And I don't see any bike as practical as this in the market at all! Fuel efficiency like the lower capacity cbr... cheaper than international pricing(quite the opposite and many heartfelt Thanks to rajiv bajaj for accomplishing a seemingly impossible feat like that)... cheap spares.. the best set of international tyres that are great in the rains as well and abs... all cheaper than the 300 ninja which doesn't have stuck awesome tyres or abs either.... for those who don't like Dukes or don't like their sound... Plz ride one for an entire day first. .. it will change your perspective completely. .. easiest Bike to live with!Originally posted by Rtz_Smro View Post

I hope It sees success in India. Although many typical Indians won't prefer the duke because of it being less practical. However, if you love it then you gotta have it.

No they won't stock power parts. Prs guy clearly told me he is the official distributor for akrapovic in india but the Akra exhaust for the duke is sold only through ktm power partsboth India and abroad. He told me to all any friend of mine to get it through ktm abroad. Accessories sold through him won't be official ktm power parts.Originally posted by nelson_sanjoy View PostWill they stock KTM OEM parts???
Thats strange , whats stopping the PBK showrooms to stock them first.

The WP engineered suspension is same diameter 43mm as that of RC8r superbike. It is no way off road. Actually it's super stiff and will have different shims..I.e. a slightly softer yet firm setup for our amazing roads!Originally posted by R-series View PostType.. Not exactly off road 😊

Originally posted by R-series View Post^^ according to my understand, it's the same category as Duke 200 (apart from the power part)
with street style sitting posture, offroad type suspension, and sports tires, so it's kind of an all rounder you can say.
offroad type suspension ?
with 150mm travel ?

(RE: to Zak) thanks buddy, appreciate your comment. will probably lean towards D390. Wondering if Ninja with ABS might make an entry around Diwali, then once again i will be confused, hehe

KTM BundGarden, Pune have removed the RC8 from

Hopefully, they are making space for the DUKE 390 •_•
Can't wait anymore

If I have a thought like you, I will stick to D390, bcoz of many reasons. But only concern is FairingOriginally posted by RickerDBiker View Posti have plans to buy a 2nd bike for myself by year end - i'm confused over KTM-390 (Value for money with ABS) or Ninja 300R (a very potent machine albeit a bit expensive), i can afford both with a bit of loan from bank. will keep reading user reviews and try a test ride for both before making up my mind.
. Always D390 is a head of N300R.
