KTM 390 Duke 2019

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.

When you consider where the KTM Duke range once began, the 690 Duke represents an incredible leap forward. The engine is extremely refined yet incredibly powerful for a road-legal single-cylinder. Despite all the technology on board, it’s still a very light bike and could almost be described as a toy (in the best sense of the word). Only its riding position divides opinion, as the Duke 4, launched in 2012, evolved from the earlier Supermotos into an almost tame naked bike with a front-wheel-oriented riding position. The advantage is that everyday riding and long tours should pose no problem on the current Duke.
