KTM 390 Adventure [2021] Price in Parshivni

Hello adventure riders, I bought this bike as it's a saviour of pride on riding, on march 2021, buying experience went smoothly at ktm begumpet, hyderabad, first time with one ring they answered the call, first question when do I will get this vehicle and the immediate answer was we have white in stock, which exactly i was looking for, went through their checklist before buying it under finance, Bajaj finance again did good job for me, never had a bad experience with them, paid 1.75 lakh upfront and rest 2 lakhs which includes road tax, (14%) as it's 3rd vehicle, can't do it on wife's name as well as she already has 2 more on her name, overall I paid an etc 3000 for number plate, registration, Bajaj finance charges etc.
All work done in a span of 3 hoursrs, and meanwhile my bike got ready and came out with a shy face as white one looks more shy in comparison to the orange ones which are very aggressive. Took some selfies along with it and some more with ktm key, these made my wife jealous lol, anyhow she is always my back supporter in my life. Actual fun thing is she gifted this to me, not realizing the rear seat height she can't do, lol she came to know it after she tried to hop onto the bike after PD checklist is done. Never said at that moment, once we reached home she said I only ride with you on RE 350, i said wonderful, as my wife don't join for rides except shopping some stupid things at begum bazar, that moment I was like best eg for memes on biker who's carrying household items packed up around the bike with bags, funny thing is she only hold to her purse rest all falls on handle bars, grab rods, rear bag, etc etc. It's better to have a picture to see that, hope many have it but not me. Lets go back to ktm 390 adventure, as usual after small pooja at home and temple, palms started itching, i want to complete the 1000kms in next day for to lift up the speed restrictions at 6000rpm, but couldn't committed for regular works, it got postponed and suddenly i got a call adventure day is happening bronze level. Are you interested to join as it's first time in Hyderabad, i was so much happy, didn't even bothered my wife calls for 1 hr. Hope married people know what happens when you won't pick your wife's phone for 1 hr. Luckily my kids were with me, all set to understand more about my bike. I learnt how to saddle, fig8, crossing obstacles, trail riding, etc. Overall this adventure day made my confidence up for off roading. This bike really makes different just imagining how many falls i could have avoided if i had this one before.
My first service barely costed me rs1543/- @1000kms, and 2 nd service @1856/- with few parts added to the list, between 1st service to the 2nd service, ktm 390 adventure group has gone from 30 to 230 bikesin a span of 10 months great progressing, luckily i got an opportunity to lead the ktm hyderabad adventure eacapes and any local coffee meets organized by ktm hyderabad, apart from that we explored most of th unexplored places in hyderabad and surroundings, pangong lake of hyderabad, kadthal, narsapur, utm, rachakonda, bodakonda and kcr eco urban park trails, most of them are unknown to hyderabadis.
I have only ridden bike on long tour only ince from hyderabad to chikmangalur, as rest of the time all rides got cancelled due to covid situations.
Finally the day come when u fed up with all going in life and want to do something big here comes the iron butt challenge, saddle sore 1000miles or 1610 kms in 24 hrs and bun burner 1500 miles or 2500kms in 36 hrs. As in India its illegal as our roads and its speed limits r not allow to do it, but national highway is one possibility to complete it without breaking any rules, but you need lot of endurance and technique to complete it successfully, me and my fellow rider successfully completed it without any glitch and its first time in the world somebody completed the iron butt challenge on ktm 390 adventure. The bike stood up to its name dual purpose bike, never had any issue on trails as you people can see videos on my youtube channel @roadsidetravel, coming to touring it works awesome, iron butt challenge successfully completed bcoz of the reason bike can easily do its job on continue riding at speeds on triple digits. Bike can give mileage according to the speeds 70-90 u will get 42kmpl most of the people wonders @ this and no one rides at this speed on the bike , 90-110 u will get 35kmpl, 110-130 u will get 29kmpl and anything more than 130+ u will get 23-29 between depends on how the road either highway or terrain conditions. City it will give you 32-35kmpl and highways as mentioned above. Most of the people comment negative on seat height 553mm but its good for me @5'10" height. Addition to that i use 1.7" risers for saddling comfortability, riding techniques has to improve as my master trainers r at height of 5'4" most of them. This shows height of seat isn't matter only riding technique. Second negative comment on low end torque, i havent faced much on this again technique plays a lot here, only issue faced is after 5503 ecu update vehicle started stalling between 4-3 gear shift only at wrong rpms but who will monitor on screen for rpms so this pblm persists international not only in india. Apart from this one issue rest is all bliss, addition to the bikes power we have slipper clutch, quick shifter, cornering abs, mtc, ride by wire throttle and latest ktm come up with different ride modes, offroad and onroad in 2022 model. Final words, incase if u r looking for all terrain vehicle in budget with all latest technologies go for ktm 390 adventure, no other bike in this segment provides all the above options with better mileage and less maintenance costs.
