Expert's Opinion on 390 Duke R
Overview

- The Duke 390 R is aggressive yet surprisingly easy to ride
- Practical for both city commuting and highway touring
- Features high-end tech and safety systems
- There has been a hike of Rs 6,292 in the price of KTM Duke 390 R, which now comes at the price of Rs 3,45,293 (ex-showroom Delhi).
Design

- Sharp LED headlight and fuel tank extensions give it a bold look
- Aggressive lines make it stand out from other naked bikes
- The design might be too loud for some, especially in 'Electric Orange'
- Some uneven panel gaps reduce the premium feel
Performance & Mileage

- Performance is class-leading, excelling in the city and highway
- Smooth power delivery and low engine heat at low speeds
- Vibrations can be felt at city speeds, though they subside at higher speeds
- Low mileage, but its a performance bike after all
Handling

- Extremely light on its feet and easy to maneuver
- Sharp braking performance adds to confidence
- Metzeler tyres lose grip under aggressive riding
- At high lean angles, the bike can feel less planted
Ride Quality

- Adjustable suspension at both ends offers a balance of comfort and sportiness
- Even with stock setup, it absorbs road bumps well
- The ride quality can feel a bit stiff on rougher roads when pushing hard
- Not as plush as some competitors
Comfort & Storage

- Lower seat height and good ergonomics for most riders
- Comfortable enough for longer tours and daily commutes
- Footpegs are set a bit high for some riders
- Ergonomics may feel cramped on long rides for taller people
Features

- Only bike in its segment to get Launch control and cornering ABS
- 5-inch colour TFT with Bluetooth, navigation, call & SMS alerts
- Gets 3 ride modes, cruise control, traction control, crawl feature, and a bi-directional quickshifter
Verdict

- Superb performance at an attractive price
- Packed with features
- Great for riders seeking an aggressive bike
- Vibrations at city speeds and aggressive design may not appeal to all
- It’s not the best choice for first-time riders or the faint-hearted
390 Duke R Pros and Cons
- Improved performance means this is the quickest bike in its segment
- Brakes feel sharp and predictable
- Adjustable suspension handles bad road well even in its stock setting
- Lower seat height should make it more accessible to shorter riders
- Feels super light on its feet and agile when changing directions
- You can barely feel any engine heat, even in bumper to bumper traffic
- Motor has become a lot smoother than before
- Some of the panel gaps are a little too pronounced
- H-rated Metzeler tyres feel a little squiggly when pushing the bike hard and the signature KTM orange colour option looks too garish in this model
KTM has knocked it out of the park with this third generation of the 390 Duke R. Not only is it extremely exciting to ride, it handles everyday riding and highway touring quite well too, thanks to the more refined motor. And even though its price might seem a bit steep, it feels well justified given everything the bike offers.
