It's actually incredible how much fun you can have with less than 50 hp. The KTM 390 Duke is a little fun cannon that you won't find anywhere else in a hurry. Its sporty set-up with the front-wheel-oriented seating position makes it a true cornering predator - you don't need any more in the angular gear. The sharp looks and the TFT display give it a very high-class appearance.
