@All Duke 390 owners - How is the clutch on your bike? I had to ride some 20+ kms with around 10kms in peak traffic. My left hand almost fell off trying to operate the clutch! Please tell me the clutch gets better as the bike is run-in.

All clutches feels like feather to me now

Check in the owner's manual. Usually delivery certificate is included in it.

Re: KTM Duke 390 - Owners Reviews and Experiences

Guys, my Duke 390 is the first in Ajmer city. That's because RTO asked me for "Prototype Certificate" for my Duke, claiming that its a "new bike"... I got it on mail from Jaipur Pbk though and gave it to them.

But, would you guys believe it? The 12 year old Karizma still makes more torque than Duke 390, below 2500 rpm approx.?? Talking about legends.

But then, the duke makes up for that later on..... (if you know what I mean!!)

Secondly, Bajaj-KTM guys filled its tyres with a lot more air than required. I checked at a pump.... 36 in the front tyre... 40 in rear! I was like... Damn!

Reduced it to recommended 25 in front and 32 in rear. The bike is lot more comfortable now and I'm getting even more grip now...

Bike completed 336 kms today.

Maximum Mileage: 43 kmpl (80 kmph on highway, 6th gear, slight speed changes)
Normal mileage (according to a mobile app that accounts for each fill up): 24 kmpl.
Maximum speed reached: 100~ kmph.
Maximum revs touched: 7000 or so.

If you (somebody!) changed the title of this thread, might as well have renamed the first part as KTM 390 Duke (correct nomenclature)!

Damn! You guys are putting our sub-200cc bikes to shame!!

Even we get the same or lesser FE at those speeds

LOL, Tall gearing helps a lot on highways. And 390 is way relaxed even at 120 kmph.

There was another 390 along with me which was 200 kms old. He got 41 kmpl.

I get around 30-32 kmpl in city.

Re: KTM Duke 390 - Owners Reviews and Experiences

41!!! are you talking about indicated fuel efficiency in the meter?

I have gone on two rides and in the first one (run-in) I never went above 100kph. 6th gear, was always below and got 34kmpl. Recent trip after run-in, got 27kmpl.This is calculated by fuel top up to top up and doing the math.

Yep, console indicated reading. However, When I checked with Reserve to Reserve, it gave me same value as in console reading.

Re: KTM Duke 390 - Owners Reviews and Experiences

Hi guys...Finally got my bike today right on the 90th day after the booking

I will not comment on the rideability and stuff as even my experience has been the same as the others who have spoken about it on the forum...One thing that i would say is that the horn on this bike is not at all good, my mom's scooty has a louder horn

So I immediately thought of changing it but one problem was that i could not find it

After an intensive search, I found it behind the handlebar(below the left side of the tank)

I guess its going to be a headache to change that

Rest everything is excellent and i am loving to ride this beast...In simple words its a rocket launcher

Will put up the pics really soon...
