    Thrilling Yet Demanding 

    After clocking in over a thousand kilometers on my KTM 390 Adventure, it is clear that this bike aims to offer a thrilling experience paired with real adventure capabilities. The 373 cc engine with a powerful 43 HP and torque of 37 Nm makes any terrain feel conquerable. Its robust build and electronic offerings like traction control and cornering ABS accentuate its premium feel.However, the true adventure comes with challenges. The high fuel consumption observed during off road sessions and a bigger tank would be handy, as the 14.5 liters sometimes do not feel enough.
