    Re: KTM CEO Destroys 390 Adventure Rumors

    Somebody from team-bhp had mentioned about duke 390 in camouflage with a wider rear seat being tested along with RC390. I guess the Duke 390 with a wider rear seat maybe the adventure version. Maybe even a bigger tank and softer suspension. Even if they come up with something like that people wont complain.

      The KTM 390 Adventure has been a beautiful, though short-lived dream. KTM CEO Stefan Pierer answered some direct questions and has openly declared that no adventure bike based on the current 390 platform will arrive from either Mattighofen or the Bajaj plants in India.

      Sir,
      So there is no hope for the 390 adventure
      , i was really waiting for the launch . Now the only one good options is the royal enfield right ?? .

      You are right , they should launch the endure models . For Indian terrain they will be just perfect .
      But am sure even if they did launch the enduro models , it will be pretty expensive .

        It depends entirely on your usage pattern and the brand you're inclined towards. I personally would suggest you to wait for a couple of months or this year end as RE is already iron-fisted on their upcoming launches. Let's give it some time and see how it unfolds.

        Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl 'Will you marry me?'
        The girl said, 'NO!'


        And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.


        THE END

            I really don't like Bajaj.. But if they release a real dual sport (not pulsar AS) with 300+cc then I will really buy one..
