Q. I am planning to buy a Duke 390. But before I buy I want to know What is the maintenance cost and mileage cost per month. I am 18 and have riding experience with Honda SP Shine 125 so can I jump directly to Duke?

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 a road. And in that case, you could consider the TVS Apache RR 310 which has been significantly improved post its BS6 update. You can expect the mileage of KTM RC 390 to around 28kmpl. If we talk about its service cost, it attracts a decent maintenance cost as per its price premium and value. However, for the exact service cost, we would suggest you to exchange your words with an authorized service center. Upgrading to KTM RC 390 from a commuter bike will be a bit difficult in the initial phase but you will be able to handle it soon. Do take a test ride in order to get better clarity. Check out authorised dealership details.
