- 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. On the other hand, Continental GT 650 is a fun to ride cafe racer. The GT’s sporty riding position makes it much more suitable for twisty mountain roads and even high speed straight line blasts. To top things off, the twin-cylinder motor provides the performance and refinement that the 535 simply couldn’t. You may compare both bikes accoridngly. Do take a test ride in order to get better clarity. Check out authorised dealership details. If we talk about Yamaha R3, it has been discontinued and hasn't been launched ion BS6 era.

- If you want to buy adhar,passport size photo,helmate recipte.
- Selling numbers of Duke is bigger than rc in India. Ktm takes more care to upgrade dukes. Next version of rc you n I can only hope to get with quick shifter. No leaked info on rc having quick shifter is floating.
- Surely with the 2021 model
- What display for ktm rc 390
- Indeed No. It's high time that people should realise it's not a touring bike though you can, whatever heck you want to but it's a bike to get out on a track and record lap time and prepare yourself for middle weigh or biggies. we people are expecting a Bluetooth console, notification all that bezels takes away it's character. A race bike needs to be light as possible. But KTM is kind enough to deliver us what we want but sure I believe the next gen will no more will be track weapon rather a tourer.
- Your points are valid but as india is a growing market for ktm and Duke is getting all the necessary updats for 2020 , I think it's high time they make some changes to the looks and features of the rc 390 . Also 70% people in India haven't experienced the track day as it is still not something that common people do in india which is sad actually. Having said that I think rc is still selling in india which is why they need to update the so called small displacement track weapon .
- Yes it ll launce tft this year
- Width can't be changed but sure you can set the bars a inch lower for more aggressive seating provided you have to get rid of the plastic cover infront of the lockset.For more r**y stance hop to TYGA clip-ons.
- No
- Price as well as weight hike up due to bs6 norms. 2kg n you can check onroad price on zigwheel.
- No itll go higher
- No difference in power figure. But weight of the bike increases due to the installation of 🐈 to comply with the bs6 norms. The incremental weigh is only 2kg.
- No lt that much about 10% Not big difference
- If I'm right there is a difference between bs4 and bs6 Bs4 has more bhp than bs6. That's why bs6 can't beat BS4 in long ride
- Ummmm it depend on your skills and height because your hand will pain will riding ktm rc if your height is 5.5 otherwise you can take it if you have guts. You can go for duke 390
- Either buy duke or adv from ktm for long ride.
- Rc is not for long range rides take Duke it'll be good
- The new 2020 one does
- No
- Already launch but i don't know that if we can buy it or not 😔. If you get some info please tell
- Already launched
- Already launched
- No rc390 bs6 doesn't have quick shifter.The Duke 390 bs6 comes with a quick shifter though. The quick shifter doesn't work smoothly.
- Check your info bro before sharing
- 2020 ba6 model have
- Boht hi fudu question tha.... nhi sale kick start hai...
- It have self start
- Yes it has.
- Wait for the 2020 Rc to come out
- Probably bro let it come
- Yes
- No info till now
- 1 week in February
- With quick shifter
- Forget refinement...its not that much refined...enjoy the brutal power...pleade ride safe.. speed for tracks only...wear good riding gears.
- Forget refinement,enjoy it on track.
- It is not so great in terms of refinement
- No dude its uncomfortable for you ...rc need atlist 5.7 inch ..if you a rc fan ...you want only rc go and adjust the rearsuspention as per your hight its 10 step adjustable suspention ...
- To be truthful, anyone from 5.7 upto 6.2(like myself) would be comfortable, as both our feets will be firm on the ground and supportive in case of any mishandling or during traffic,
- Don't feel bad but its Uncomfortable but if you wana try try it in nerest sowroom test rides
- Its worth your penny....its a track bike ..so don't expect commuters comfort or any refinement...it a bike with short gear shifts will take you beyond legal limits..so if you forget pillion comfort..refinement..go for it..top end performance us great on ninja 300 and r3..Apache rtr200..is a good choice if you are a fan of apache...buy good riding gears..and ride within your limits.
- Depends a lot on the kind of riding you do really. But, if you ride your bike more then a 100 kms per day, I would not recommend it.
- Yes its more than worth but plss don't go for racing on roads take it for track days
- Buying RC 390 is one thing, but you should be clear about the purpose, if your purpose is short weekend ride, would recommend RC 390, Now comes the version yes the new RC 390 has more comfortable ride position and not as aggressive as the previous version, but considerable amount of refinement has increased over the decade, if you are looking forward to buy it, would recommend you to go for the new one !
- Yes bro..I too have the same opinion.will ktm compromise track riding ergonomics and make upright stance better for roads...then it will k**l the rc concept...I too is worried..even the initial colour schemes were good...if any real picture is out ..go for current rc you will not regret..ser r15s story..
- Your choice agar thumha rc 390 buy karna ha to kharidlo ya phir new model kharidna ha to kharido
- If you're coming from R15 then you can jump in RC. if you're planning for Cruzin long rides leh and all go with dominar. Dominar it's a overall package but lacks in character while RC has a character aggressive, swift.
- Rc 390...those who need to save money can go for updated dominar 400( good for touring too).
- RC 390 is great on track. Dominar is great for touring
- Rc 290 is best for highway and track specialy but rr310 is for city and highway
- Make up your mind. The above 3 are completely different bikes
- KTM did not unveil the 2020 RC 390 this time while showcasing the 390 Adventure. Does this mean that the RC 390 launch is postponed ?
- KTM did not unveil the RC 390 along with the 390 Adventure. Does that mean the launch is postponed ?
- April 2020. Nope, single cylinder
- Duke 250 would be a balanced choice for both daily commute and travel.
- Duke 250...has more service centres for long rides
- Duke 250 bro
- Check the air filter when it is servicing ,is it cleaned by the mechanic ,because i also had this issue but after cleaning the air filter it goes 120-130 smoothly
- The speed limiter will open after the bike has run 1000 kms
- But your questions is wrong 100Kmpl
- You will get nice accessories on delivery
- You will get nice accessories on delivery
- Many expensive accessories
- Depends on your experience...height...initially master to control the bike ..in a tarred ground ....avoid traffic initially..be patient ....buy good riding gear ...ride safely
- You can if your feet touch the ground and your hands reach the throttle and clutch😊
- Obviously bro
- I think it would be a good choice for sports bike
- Why would one want 4 speed gearbox?
- Not till date..
- Thanks zigwheel that i want to know . All are telling that Duke is more faster as compared to RC but i have them wrong . I am telling to all that Duke is naked and RC is sports RC will go faster because of aerodynamic . Thanks Can you give your Whatsapp number .My number : 824****903
- If you talk about the Speed it's gonna same because both the bikes got same engine and torque calculations, but due to the naked model of duke ,it goes faster about 130 and slows down whereas,the RC model is better after 130-140 as the aerodynamics cut the air at higher speed.
- Yess
- Government norms bro..and if you're planning on for track days, just take off the sensor.
- The rc 390 has been equipped with ABS ever since it launched
- With Dual Channel ABS
- Good control better than r15 and tvs apache310r you can go for it i have this bike since its launched
- Good .if you know the way to control...in busy traffic don't try its performance please..ride safe.
- Handling and the agility of the bike is amazing. It begs you to ride harder and faster
- RC 390 is a performance oriented motorcycle, isn't a commuter though peeps do you shouldn't compare apples to organes
- KTM RC 390 is a powerful brute and the BR 250R is a smoothie
- Rc 390 refinement is best
- I’m 6 feet and 1 inch, I fit on the rc 390 just fine. It’ll be slightly less uncomfortable for taller riders. But sometimes it will feel small when you’re riding it, specially after riding a bigger bike or even the R3
- Both the chassis are identical, you can fit in both.
- Ktm rc390 superb rocket bike
- To be truthful, anyone from 5.7 upto 6.2(like myself) would be comfortable, as both our feets will be firm on the ground and supportive in case of any mishandling or during traffic,
- To be truthful, anyone from 5.7 upto 6.2(like myself) would be comfortable, as both our feets will be firm on the ground and supportive in case of any mishandling or during traffic,
- To be truthful, anyone from 5.7 upto 6.2(like myself) would be comfortable, as both our feets will be firm on the ground and supportive in case of any mishandling or during traffic
- No ..try riding in a small bike ..learn the traffic rules ..pothole management anticipating wrong siders ..other bikers ..temperament.foreign countries give supetbikes licence very lately..riding schools are there...so buy sub 150cc then uptake...means no r15 too.its fast ...a good commuter will do..you can buy seconds.
- Yes but be carefull my friend it a master class bike who ride with bigboys and has top power ride it slow for 5 to 6 months like below 60 to 70 kmph when you get on this bike this bike will trill you of its design erognomics and peak power but don't go for racing plssss
- The rc 390 was my first bike and I’ve been riding it for the past 3 years. It’s an excellent option as you won’t out grow the power very fast and will keep you entertained for a long time. I still enjoy riding my rc 390 even though I’ve got a Benelli 600i. Go for it only if you’ve got self control coz it tempts you to ride fast seconds after you swing your leg over it.
- Rc 390 comes with dual channel abs , so u are talking about the traction control which helps during the cornering right? No it doesn't have traction control sir
- Rc 390 comes with dual channel abs , so u are talking about the traction control which helps during the cornering right? No it doesn't have traction control sir
- No but i think 2020 version it will come with corning abs
- You get only one variant...all features included in it.
- Rc 200 for road and better mileage...rc390 for track
- There are no variants of the RC 390
- Nahhh
- No
- Nooo itwill not match
- It’s pretty easy to filter through traffic with the rc 390. The mileage will be around 21-26 kmpl
- I one that's mileage but i'm new rider RC 390
- 23
- It has been launche d in 2018 and now the new rc 125 will launch this year of rupees 1.25 lakh
- Now they have rc 390 2019
- Itll be in 2025
- Go for it bruh
- Dominar 400 latest version is anyday a better choice than this
- Wait for the new model
- Brilliant performance in single cylinder brooo
- Definitely yes the best of the best
- In this segment definitely yes
- Ktm do not support change of colours u have to change with third party ( like shop with wrap bikes) wrap the bike and if u do not like take it out
- Graphic change karloo
- When will ktm duke 490 launch in india
- Just go to karol bagh and search for new graphic of your choice because ktm graphics are easily available
- We do not know about your state but here at our place it is illegal to modify colors, engines, exhaust etc...
- Sure..... U can change the colour black or blue
- Same. Only thing is rc390 additional ABS maintenance will be extra and the air filters maintanence. But the cost variation is very negligible
- No service cost of RC 200 is cheaper as compared to RC 390
- A slight difference but not much.
- I myself had ridden rc 390 for about 2430 kms from delhi to Coimbatore in a single attempt in 33 hours but i felt really s****d after that.so when i returned from Coimbatore, i did around 1400 kms in a day and slept at night and then did the remaining 1000 kms on the next day.After this mayhem, i could not feel my palm for a week and the ring finger on my left hand was numb for about 2 months. Also i am a fit guy, so did not suffer any back pain but my shoulders were dead for a couple of weeks.My advice is, yes the bike can do 1000 kms in a day on an highway pretty easily, although it is a mammoth task. Hence you should be fit enough to be able to do that, mentally as well as physically. Lastly i would advice to ride in a time limited manner and not distance limited.
- Its pretty painful believe me, i did it once and after that I had to forget that I've a bike. But the real trick is only try to cover that much, which is below your pains and nothing else.
- No chance. You will end up filling fuel atleast 4-5 times on the way. Additionally you will have to pay doctors fee the very next day due to joint pain.
- You can easily go for the Kawasaki Vulcan by adding another 1L to your budget. If that's not gonna workout, go for the Yamaha r3 or wait for the Yamaha mt-03 releasing in December this year which will cost around 3L to 3.5L max.
- If u r looking for the comfort i prefer duke 390 if u need to attract the people u must have to go for ktm rc390 is perfect choice if u doesnt think about mileage it may get around 15-23 depending on ur riding
- In city Duke will be the perfect choice. I don't think you should try for Rc. Because i have the Rc and i know how plain full it is while riding in city traffic.
- It depends on your taste and your attitude.1.if you want a bike to take to track - rc 390 is the best choice. mind you its not at all comfortable.2. if you want a bike with brand image and one that impresses by its name itself - Ninja 300 is the best choice. its the jack of all trades, i.e., it an all rounder .3. if you want a bike that is easy on the pocket and cheaper to maintain, has good looks and is comfortable to ride.- apache rr310 is the best choice.4. finally i don't see a reason at all to buy the yamaha r3 or the hyosung gt250r. the value for money and equipment offered is not on par with the competition. PS- all of these bikes are fun to ride and accelerate really fast!!! please wear proper rider gear.ride safe.
- It purely depends on your riding style and the purpose. If you’re someone who rides aggressively and loves attacking corner, don’t look any further rc 390 is the one. But if you like to tour, commute and attack corners once in a while the R3 and Ninja 300 are the bikes for you. I personally prefer the R3 over the ninja 300 just because of the way it looks and the punch from the engine. I’m not a huge fan of the RR 310 it’s trying a lil too hard to do everything and doesn’t really stand out at anything. So to put it short, power and handling: rc390, touring and practicality: R3
- See being an rc owner, i would definitely recommend RC but it really depends on what criteria you are looking most, if u want something for regular commuting i won't suggest unless you won't have any complaints due to its sitting position and heating issues even other riders may other opinions regarding its heating issues, I'm ok with it cuz that's why I've bought it right. But if you want something low in power, comfort riding, occasional track rides, or long commute go for rr 310. But hey there is nothing like an RC390.#proudRC owner.
- No sorry you can go for bajaj avenger cruiser or. other bikes but this bike is not for you you will face many difficulties pls go for cruiser bikes
- It is better to go for duke. For your height and rc riding position, you will definitely get wrist and shoulder pain. You have to bend more forward which makes it uncomfortable for everyday use
- Not really bro. You can mange . But both feet won't be stable on floor
- Go for Duke 390 buddy... It is more suitable for our roads and you will enjoy it more when you plan to go anywhere.. May that be daily office commute, touring or weekend rides. It's the best option than the RC. RC is a very track focused bike and we don't have track access next to our house where we are actually gonna enjoy it.
- RC 390 if you love racing. Hope you wear all the safety kit and you race in designated racing circuits...not on the road.
- See if you are regular commuter, then go for duke which is good for city rides, but if u are willing to go for highways then rc
- I am 6.4 dude its obviously awesome
- Yeah and it won’t be as aggressive for you compared to someone who’s below 6 feet
- No bro you are to long for this type off bike
- Both bikes best for touring and u need to carry petrol van all around
- R3 is better for touring any day
- R3 is best for touring 👌
- You need a toe only to control a bike..do buy thick insole for riding boots ...train on it adjust handles and foot pegs ...dont grip throttle too hard ..try this in the showroom ...good luck.
- To be truthful, anyone from 5.7 upto 6.2(like myself) would be comfortable, as both our feets will be firm on the ground and supportive in case of any mishandling or during traffic,
- I’ve got a few friends who are 5.6 feet or around the same height. You may have to tiptoe a lil but once you get the hang of it it won’t be an issue.
- Rc 200 cz its seat cushion and comfort is much better than the Duke 200 and Rc 390 which is stiff as compared to Rc 200
- Engine wise the 390 will be more relaxed at high speeds but the duke is more easy on your body
- DUKE 200
- The duke 390 is a version that gives you much more of an aggressive version of rc 390 with a much more comfortable seating position than the rc 390. I guess duke 390 is more comfortable.
- No way! RC has a dedicated sporty riding position and it’s very tiring compared to Duke which has a street riding stance.
- @akash riding posture is the same both the bikes have aggressive riding position but the seat height is different 🙂
- My height is 5.6 feet and I'm very smoothly driving this ktm rc390 bike
- I don't think so
- Height don't count you need passion aggression and determination
- See I could not say comfortable for any height... there is only one disadvantage that seats are not comfortable for long distance runs.... although it is best for short distance.but I will not prefer for long distance as back starts paining
- You might need to tip toe bro. So just do a test drive and consider the bike after that.
- YES
- See it all depends for what purpose you want to buy it, since its best in its class with best pickup, power, and even moderate maintenance cost, but don't have resell value. If u want something in between then go rc 200,it would be better option too.
- If you are confident and if you are really comfortable with the 125 cc bike then you can surely upgrade to 390 rc . Rc 390 requires a little bit experience so please take that into consideration.
- No pls dont go to higher take like 250 cc bike before going to higher cc because these r aggressive bikes
- Almost something in between since 390 has instant power, so its more aggressive sitting gives proper comfort and do compliment.
- There is no difference in sitting moisture of both.. only difference is power engine and little bit body... seats are same
- But 820mm is a big difference in the riding postures not comfortable for small height riders
- There are ample options available i.e. TVS Apache RTR 160, KTM 125 Duke, Yamaha FZ-Fi Version 3.0, etc. For a perfect bike choice, a comparison is to be done on the basis of price, size, space, mileage, performance, features, and other specs. .

- Go for RC 390 if u want performance..also if u can increase ur budget by about 50K u can also go for Yamaha R3 because its engine is much more refined(parallel twin so little or no vibrations) and service is also better if u compare with ninja 300.
- Benelli 302 best other choice hyosung gt 250 with after market exhaust
- Bro ..speed is for tracks not for roads and is a relative thing.Riding in a road needs responsibility towards you to other vehicles to pedestrians to animals..dont jump All replies in the same way.cc and power I sre different power depends on bore and stroke of engine aerodynamics torque also matters. cc will not give speed.so you can buy an Yamaha r15 v3 ride with all gears . Its 150cc but will satisfy your need for speed not over speed. hope you understand us ?need speed go to the track good luck!!!
- While buying a high powered sports bike, experience matters. If you love your life more than speed. RC390 has a high power engine which is not preferred for crowded cities. If you have free highways and you would like to learn riding actual sports bike. RC is a good choice. But remember great power will bring responsibility. Ride responsibly so that you can live long to enjoy your riding freedom.There are no cheap bikes in that low price segment unless you buy a used vehicle and if you can opt a used Yamaha R3. Prefer it!
- Dude I don't think you will get a 300cc new bike within than budget. You will however get seconds. But I'm sure if l you can splurge another 30-40 you can go for new dominor 2019. Best all rounder. But that's your choice. Don't judge a bike by its cc. A bullet 500 cannot even catch up with KTM 390. Power to weight ratio matters, so dominor is perfect for that
- Not good at all for touring... I have had a lot of issues regarding the coolent and the radiator fan... Engine Overheating and head gasket issues.... This issues don't appear on short city rides.... But eventually arise when you take it for long tours. Also the bike is not at all comfortable and where to keep the luggage? Prefer Duke 390/250 for touring if KTM is your choice of brand.
- Its a track bike...you can use for touring if you take intermittent breaks...but back sores....enjoy the beast in track.
- Get well soon.
- No it does vibrate. Mainly the entire body is made out of fibre to reduce weight power ratio in the engine. The battery panel which is clearly an risky place to keep in front of the petrol tank, will surely get vibrations with use. You will definitely see is intensity increase with time. Mirrors also become squeaky. So vibrations from engine will be felt at high speeds of over 80kmh. So don't expect a smooth peaceful ride on this bike
- With the new RC model with the silencer. The vibrations are substantially reduced compared to the old model. The engine is surely not vibration free but not something a person would worry about. But still I would suggest a test ride.
- Well you don't buy 390cc motorcycle,to ride at 80,90 kmph ,then i you should have brought 150,160cc bik,why 390
- Yes it is.... compare torque produced by rc 390 it goes till 150kmph very smoothly
- I think you're buy rr310 Apache best in class
- You will go for Apache Rr 310 best in class
- RC390 is a strict no no! It wont give you mileage and is very uncomfortable in city. Your wrists would pain a lot. If you are strictly looking for faired bikes and mileage is a concern, then I assume maintenance would also be a factor you must be caring about. You got two options, for good mileage go for Yamaha R15; and if you can compromise a bit on mileage and want some performance as well, then Yamaha R3 is the best bike you would get out there. R3 is comfortable in city as well but comes with a price tag! But Yamaha is very reliable than the KTM! This is my opinion though because I have faced a lot of issues with my KTM and the service is not that good. Also the availability of service centers and the expertise of mechanics is a issue if you want to go for touring. Yet, if you are tight on your budget and you want performance while travelling in city, then Duke 250/390 is anytime a good choice. There is no doubt that duke is the best bike for city, but only if you can consider buying this naked bike. For faired version don't go for KTM, prefer Yamaha.
- Rc 390 is a bike thats really not suitable for traffic by my opinion . In traffic situations i think i get nearly 20 kmpl . And rc 390 is not a bike up for daily use . I personally use the bike only for long rides . You can only feel the real performance of an rc 390 during long rides . Choose this bike If you really love it .
- U can buy dominar 400 or pulsar ns 200 both are better . If u HV a good budget u can go for Duke 250 it is also good but I will not suggest RC for this much ride.as it is not comfortable as these bikes are
- I'm your height and I don't find it inconvenient. Only when you wear flip flops or there's a dip in the road you'll need to balance with one leg but over all I love riding my RC 390 because it's an RC 390! It's an amazing ego power trip!
- From where did Petrol came in the question for Comfort of Height 🤣? Anyways buddy get a test ride. I owned an RC and I am of the same height. For me height is not an issue. But I would suggest you to take a test ride.
- It is not comfortable for long tours. For short distance it is very good. As for long distance our back remain bend which cause pain.
- In what terms are you asking?All three are bikes meant for totally different purpose.RC390 is best when racing is a factor to consider. It is not a city bike and certainly does not feel comfortable when riding in traffic conditions. Its best at its job and that is track performance. Classic 350, is best suited to easy riders and is mostly preferred by riders who tend to go for tour aswell. Its old school design is appealing and has its own charm. It certainly cannot be compared with any other motorcycle regarding the performance figures. If you love the classic, then you buy the classic. So it is as easy it can be to decide. If you want to look for performance check other charts.Himalayan is an off road bike, it doesn't mean it can't be ridden on roads! But it is not designed for city riding. So if you are mostly going to ride in the city and off-road is not your kind. Then do not buy this. But if your city roads gives you an off-road experience, then you might consider this bike as the suspension does a great duty.
- Mileage and Daily Commuting: RE Classic 350 (Noise from the head is irritating and not that expected level of satisfaction)Offroad Sports and Commuting: RE Himalayan (A good commuter and adventure driving)Track Racing and Highway Rides: KTM RC 390 (Not preferred for city rides)
- Classic 350 is what I suggest better.. as it cost is less than all.and also good power although there is vibration but it is good.or u can buy Himalayan it's also good. But I will not suggest RC as good for long tours
- Mileage and refinement with less power but with great style in a r15 v3...performance in track use fork wireless throttle slipperclutch ...in an rc 390..looks both have their own distinctive style.
- What kind of question is this comparing 150 cc with a 373 cc? It's not even a similar budget motorcycles.
- KTM RC 390
- FOR STUNT DUKE AND FOR RACE RC
- Duke 390 bcz it has lesser weight than RC 390. If you need for stunts then go for a Duke 390
- Rc
- Yes
- No
- Best you visit the show room for more variants
- Nahhhhhhh

- Bhaiya bike kii chabi dega or kuch nhi dega 🤣

- It is depend on offer or showrooms
- Mobile new launch free. Showroom depend .
- Dont know? keep visiting the showrooms
- Nothing

- 1200rs+ will be the extra, not only that , there are many extras for other parts that you change , that would be totally 2k plus if you do any other changes extra
- It's all on yours guts bro
- It will be good but it was not comfortable
- You will love the curves on hilly roads
- Rc takes lead because of bhp but on the long drive ninja goes 10000 rpm which is more than rc. Top speed of ninja is 191
- Go search in YouTube rc will win
- Pick up rc ka badia hai ninja sa
- Yes just needs to alter the seat height...
- Yes ..ur height is perfect
- Not for long rides go for the adv 390
- Hai pr single channel
- Rc390 has dual channel rc200 has single channel
- RC 390 has ABS, where as RC 200 doesn't.
- Yes ..please see old answers concerning height.
- Yes . The 2017 model comes with it.
- 2018 KTM RC 390 IS COMES WITH SLIPPER CLUTCH
- Abs is avalaible now check it out
- KTM's 390 comes with ABS only, let it be a Duke or RC, other bikes like RC 200, Duke 200,Duke 125 etc does not have ABS.
- 2015 me hi a gaya bhai!
- Writing my thoughts assuming you are going to use the bike in city and daily commute.Yamaha R3....Most Reliable, Fuel Efficient, Comfortable, can be used for city commute as well as for touring and has a very linear power delivery. It is little costly than the KTM RC but cheaper than the Ninja. But you can use it as long as you want it in your garage and will give you a better resale price as well. For Ninja, it is not at all reliable, and comes with a lot of maintainence cost - ride it or don't ride! Also its not a VFM machine. It is comfortable and little fuel efficient, but lacks service convenience as compared to Yamaha.For KTM RC, not at all comfortable, it is way too track focused and I assume you don't live on tracks here in India. Not at all a reliable machine and will stay good for a couple of years (can't ignore it's manufactured by Bajaj) and will show its ageing after that with service costs and sudden breakdowns. It is the cheapest sport bike out there in that range, but is certainly not the most ideal chose to make.
- Rc390 is fun bike for short rides. But it heats a lot in busy traffic. I do agree with you about service and spare parts of ktm bikes. But if you live in capital cities like the Delhi, lucknow, Mumbai, pune etc then you don't have to worry about ninja bikes too. Ninja will always last longer than ktm. And you will get mob attention too while riding. Ninja is always a premium bike. Enjoy this, it requires handling with care! Also, you would love to see ninja 300 beating Rc390 in terms of top speed
- It depents on your riding style and your need ....if you get comfort and power than gp for ninja 300 and if you want tha aggresive posture cool look 373 cc 25 ps raw power than rc is best for you ...
- Absolutely! I just got done with 2200KM ride recently on RC 390, I got no problem at all. It has great controling system. I guess the braking power is awsome amd it really justifies the power and money spent on it.
- Its not a reliable bike . If want any fun or some spotier experience then this bike is for you.
- YES
- Anytime my friend, it has better and aggressive engine, higher bhp and better riding position for drags. You can try your self and see the results.
- No cbr cannot win the race but cbr is s good bike
- Cbr250 can't win from rc 390
- There is no doubt in this tht KTM is highly reputed company but I want to share my experience, I have ktm rc390 and have done hardly 29000 km on it. You can check me service records, all services are before time.. but my bike has started leaving black smoke. It has just done 29000km and leaving black smoke. It's engine oil level decrease drastically.I have give my bike in ktm service station, total cost is above 50000 Rs. That too it l take month to get repaired. Once u have purchased this bike, there is no good support from KTM. Every one is just looting money from you. You can just imagine the quality of engine which starts burning engine oil just after 29000 km.
- My bike is ktm rc 390 ...Why i choosed this model because first of all i think rc is looking more musculr than duke ...if we look at its specifications both rc and duke having the same except its handling and ride postureBefore rc i had r15/pulsar 220 both are more or less same on its riding posture and handlingIf we look at duke its a staright sitting naked bike And i test drived once at that time i felt its little hard to ride in traffic means to do very tricky to make a fast manoeuvre rest in highways it gives a good rodong posture with no back pain or shoulder painThen also why i choose rc my mainly because of its handling and look
- Both are powerful performance bikes...they are made to do drift or race..drift bi Duke 390 with supetmoto mode in which you can unlock rear abs for drifting lowers..can be used for short commute not touring..Rc 390 is a proper race track beast for leaning in the track..ultimate midrange..handling...which one is better? buy according to your needs...but Duke does all what rc does and more with supetmoto mode...
- Yeah
- Yes bro it is compatible ok bro
- Yes brother it is compatible
- In bs6 model you can change suspension low and high only
- NO
- It's not a scooty dude it's a sports bike
- Yees
- You will get shoulders pain and waist back side pain .It is uncomfortable bro.
- It can be used but you'll have to suffer from shoulder pain
- The problem is not the heat.BIG capacity bikes tend to heat up quite a bit.The actual problem lies in the riding gear that is used.If a rider is riding in shorts and slippers, which is not the way to ride any bike actually, then heat can be unsettling but if proper riding gear is used then you wont feel a thing.And in short, No the bike does not have heating issues since 2017.Ride safe.
- We have Reduced heat in Ktm bikes over 10 to 15 degrees and the radiator Fan starts only occasionally after riding on 2nd and third gear for 20mins 100% guarantee We Have many satisfied customers Contact 961****810 - Ravi

- Dominar 400 is s**t go for rc
- Rc390 defnatly I too got that confusing at first for me too I took rc390 and I did the right thing
- For hills or long drive than go for bullet .and short city rides than take sports bike
- Bro try to master the bike...390 rc is not beginners...you can learn cornering in a tarred ground with good riding gears in a 125 or 150cc bike fz 150 2nd you will get for cheap rate ...then under supervision slowly ride rc ..ride safely.. avoid traffic initially...good luck.
- This bike not for new riders, you should first have some experience to handle powerful bikes and then you should buy big bikes, practice on smaller segment bikes first and then upgrade to bigger bike. It is because new riders are often seen that they are unable to hold that much power and often cause accident and rc 390 is a bike with straight hell power for indian roads. So i suggest you practice on this bike on driving school or a smaller bike that someone have in your house
- YES
- This year...you can see some glimpses ...
- YES
- Sure? I have been waiting for this bike since 2017. No recent information yet.
- It's nothing rc390 2018 means it was manufactured in 2018 but both r same
- There is none .They are exactly the same
- 2 is an upgraded version
