    I didn't say it would be uncomfortable. In comparison to the CB500 trio it wont be as comfortable!

    Capice ?

      level of comfort varies from rider to rider then.
      Right at this moment nothing feels at good or comfortable as my Duke 200 to me.

        Comfort varies with purpose.

        For a tourer a faired CB500 is going to be much more comfortable.

        Because of its:Engines nature and Tuning, Wind Protection.

        For Urban commute, Its Duke hands down.
        Because of its:Ah, I have no need to say any reason. That is why you guys are watching this thread now.

          By that logic one can say the CBR1000RR/R1 are most comfortable because they feel its most comfortable to them.

          But we all know how aggressively sporty the position for both the bikes.

          Comfort is not subjective unless one a medical condition, comfort is more a general rule. For example, sleeping on a bed is definitely more comfortable than sitting on a small and narrow stool.

          'Getting comfortable' is another matter altogether, now that is a personal and subject to the person riding the bike.

            The review is in greek but has english subtitles.

            @Samarth, the new EU regulations have even made alternate sprockets illegal. Absolutely everything will be monitored.
            Thanks for the video. Yes i agree with you that Bajaj had infuence on KTM with thier DTSI technology.

            Few points which video shares and has impact on Duke 390 is that it says duke 690 is less than 150 KG and the top speed is 189KMPH. So Duke 390 is definetly less than 150 KG and its speed cannot be more than 190 KMPH

                Dear KTM/Bajaj,

                If you are reading this, please consider this request. I'm sure if you include this on the upcoming bigger Duke it will be a big USP for the bike and will definitely help you rope in more customers for sure.

                Please! Please! Please give us the double stacked projector headlamps from the older KTM690Duke.




                Regards,
                Prospective Duke 375/390 Customer(s)

                        Sounds like a small yet highly strung engine!

                        Something very similar to the Moto3

                            nice sound, though i would have preferred some more bass in it.
