RC 390 Pros and Cons

Good Things
  • The most powerful bike in its segment, rev-happy engine, ride-by-wire offers precise throttle inputs
Could be Better
  • Committed riding posture, instrument console looks dated, stiff ride quality
Expert's Conclusion

If you're looking for a light, powerful, sharp-handling sportbike that'll help you hone your skills, the KTM RC 390 makes perfect sense. However, the bike's committed riding posture means it's more suited for track than road. And in that case, you could consider the TVS Apache RR 310 which has been significantly improved post its BS6 update.

Impressive comfort

4.6

Light and nimble around town, It can also cut it on track and has impressive comfort and range for this class.Motogp-inspired looks, Tft clocks, Wp suspension and led lights add to its appeal, While even the bodywork is easy to remove should you want to go racing.

Q. I want change the colour in RC card fo Duke how much it's cost
  • To update the colour on your RC, we suggest visiting the nearest RTO with the necessary documents.
Q. Which one should I buy Ninja 400 or KTM RC 390 or BMW 310 GS?
  • All three bikes are good in their own forte. The 2022 Kawasaki Ninja 400 is priced at Rs 4,99,000, ex-showroom Delhi, which is the same price as the previous-gen bike. Mechanically, the Ninja 400 is identical to the older model, carrying on with the 399cc, liquid-cooled, parallel-twin engine with 45.3PS and 37Nm on tap. The 2022 Kawasaki Ninja 400 will come with a twin-LED headlamp and a semi-digital instrument cluster. If we talk about RC 390, while maintaining its sporty nature, KTM has also managed to make the 2022 RC 390 a bit more practical when it comes to everyday riding. This is done via a wider clip-on handlebar, redesigned split (and more cushioned) seat setup and a larger tank to better grip with your knees. On the other hand, improvements to the engine, suspension and brakes have significantly enhanced the overall riding experience of the baby GS. It feels more polished, is more capable off-road, and has better equipment for an asking price that’s not only cheaper than before but also much more affordable than the KTM 390. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride for a better understanding of performance and comfort. Click on the link and select your desired city and brand for dealership details.
Q. Heating issue in my RC390.
  • Its the engine design We can't do any thing i think try different types of coolent it may work

Q. Is the engine of KTM RC 390 reliable?
  • The KTM RC 390 is powered by a BS6-compliant 373.3cc fuel-injected liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine that puts out 43.5 PS at 9000rpm and 36 Nm at 7,000 rpm. The engine comes mated to a 6-speed transmission aided by a slipper clutch. Moreover, the reliability of a bike depends on the care and timely maintenance. If you're looking for a light, powerful, sharp-handling sportbike that'll help you hone your skills, the KTM RC 390 makes perfect sense.
