Pros and Cons in comparison

KTM 390 Duke 2013

The KTM 390 Duke celebrates the lightness of being.

Light weight

sufficient power

low consumption

No chassis adjustment possible

low comfort

KTM 390 Adventure R 2026

The 390 Adventure has never been so uncompromisingly trimmed for off-road use. With powerful travel, modern electronics and less than 180 kg, the 390 Adventure R could be the long sought-after, all-rounder among touring enduros. It can easily conquer motorway stages, be chased through twisties or transmitted over hill and dale. But there is a potential catch: the engine taken from the 390 Duke is also very hungry for revs in the Adventure R. This results in constant shifting and hardly any spontaneous propulsion. This can be particularly annoying in enduro bike mode. So whether the KTM 390 Adventure R can fulfil long-standing desires remains a matter of taste.

Top ergonomics for both standing and seated riding

Adjustable suspension with plenty of reserves

State-of-the-art electronics

Good wind protection

Versatile use

Serious enduro bike tyres

Low weight

Engine needs a lot of revs for superior propulsion

engine tends to stall

brakes not very stable

focus on sportiness reduces comfort (e.g. rather hard seat)
