KTM 390 Duke [2022-2023] Mileage

If you want Power and Performance, Go for KTM Duke bikes. If you are a mileage person, don’t even consider owning one. KTM Dukes are bikes that focus only on Intense Performance and Road Presence. Ask any Duke Owner about its mileage and they will usually tell you not to buy it if what you are looking for is Fuel Economy. These bikes are Petrol Drinkers and their Thirst can never be quenched. KTM Dukes are bikes that are capable of anything to everything which makes them quite dangerous for Inexperienced Riders. I suggest if you are planning to buy a KTM Duke bike, let it be any model, and be safe and responsible with its power. These motorcycles are very lightweight and can swift through traffic like a feather. “With Great Power comes Great Responsibility.” Be alert while you ride these bikes, they have the tendency to make the Rider reckless and crazy. Be very careful, your life and others’ lives may be at risk.

Hello reader
if you're planning to buy KTM Duke 390 please consider reading this. I'm owning this bike for about 2 years now.
This is not any paid review, whatever am writing is just personal experience.
Firstly, buying is very much hassle-free if you're going for a cash purchase. Just remember to bargain. There is always room for price negotiation.
If you're going for EMI please check with multi banks for offers and interest percentage. And always go for a fixed rate of interest not floating. That can save you few thousand.
The second most important part is maintaining the bike.
Always try to do the servicing from an authorized service center. Not only it will extend the life of your bike, but at the same time it will be very helpful in times of any sort of emergency situation.
Don't have the miss conception that it's bajaj so the service cost will be less. Be ready to pay around 3k - 4k every time the bike goes for service. In every 10k - 12k km chain sprocket and clutch plate assembly need to be changed which roughly costs something around 9k. Do change the tires between 20k to 23k km. Mrf tyres don't last more than that.
What KTM is known for, Duke 390 absolutely stands strong over there. Fully loaded with power ' n ' specs, pick up is absolutely top-notch, till now I have managed to touch 168 km/l top end without any performance upgrade, with all stock parts. What we all want to know after buying a bike is what's the mileage of the bike. So far my bike delivers 330 kms of mileage in a full tank. But mostly, my bike is used on highways.
Try using Michelin road 5 tyres for better performance. Am using liquid moly street race mobil. Indeed it's better than Motul 7100 10w 50.
For chain clean and lube am using 66bhp products.
Pros and cons :-
Pros
1 > greats look and light weight.
2 > fully loaded with specs in this price category.
great value for money bike.

service centers.

ride, off roading or touring.
5 > breaking is too good compared to re 350, BMW
310 r and Apache 310 r.
Cons
1 > have vibration issues.
2 > stalling of the bike going to be a permanent
issue.
3 > built quality is not that great.
4 > stock lights are horrible.

About the Reviewer

It is a good-looking performance bike from my side I would be giving 100/100 as it has a mileage of 25 to 30.
I would suggest, buying this bike if you prefer a 400cc bike it’s stylish looking and road attraction is too much good. Its maintenance cost is about only 4000 to 5000 it’s drl lights are too cool.
