Pros and Cons in comparison
KTM RC 390 2014

The RC390 has opened my eyes and I hope that there is a lot more to come with small displacement. Low weight still leads to the greatest enjoyment when riding a motorbike, although you can't do without a bit of power either. But the 390 somehow managed to inspire me with its 44 hp and to break me of my addiction to even more power. I'm going to build a small race track 2.5 km long with 14 bends and then there'll be a 1000PS RC390 Cup.
KTM 390 Duke 2022

The KTM 390 Duke is a "real" Duke. The trademark: Extremely agile handling that makes for powerful riding fun. The flyweight 390 can be precisely controlled with its narrow waist and wide handlebars and feels most at home in tight corners. Especially with the Supermoto mode, it is a fun machine without equal. Unfortunately, only the brakes and suspension of the 390 cannot maintain the same, very high performance level as on the 125 Duke or 890 Duke. They feel a bit spongy and not optimally tuned, especially when the rider weighs in a bit more. The equipment is otherwise tip-top, especially when you consider the price of the 390 Duke. In terms of riding pleasure/euros, it outperforms most, including its Duke sisters.
