KTM Duke 390
1 year ago
Lakshmi Narayanan
The buying experience of the KTM Duke 390 was incomparable to anything. I bought my motorcycle in the month of May 2017 out of the very first lot. I took delivery after all the paperwork was done. My first ride experience was amazing as I twisted the throttle the motorcycle instantly pulled a wheelie outside the KTM showroom and the people who went through watched me like I was a crazy fool. Riding experience is the best. I was a person who considered motorcycles as mere machines who could take me from point A to B. Boy was I wrong. This motorcycle changed the way I look at motorcycles and I was taking it all in. I went on to join online forums, and biker groups inside the city, and went for breakfast rides to nearby cities like Pondicherry, Bangalore, Telangana, etc. Talking about looks and performance this motorcycle boasts looks that cannot be compared to any motorcycle. of course, the Dominar was sharing its engine and internal organs but it was a SOHC, and Duke 390 was a DOHC which made a whole lot of difference. A feature-packed motorcycle that came out of the factory with Ride by wire, slipper clutch, ABS with supermoto mode, TFT display, USD forks, and Metzeler tyres which just hugged the road when I was cornering. If you need your Duke 390 to perform you have to give proper care to it. I went to changing different engine oils from Motul, Castrol, Shell, and Pertonas to perform like anything, and of course, there is a heat management which is not that good. But you have to use Engine Ice Coolant to sort out that issue. Finally, if you are someone who wants to learn what motorcycle riding is all about you have to try riding a KTM Duke 390 at least 100 kms. I am sure you will fall for it. Ride safe.

Tips for other riders
Change the engine oil every 7500 kms, use engine ice as coolant, use shell power fuel only to get optimum performance, use metzeler tyres or michelin road 5's, keep optimum tyre pressure, get a visor to reach extra speeds while riding on highways. always use a good quality helmet and gloves. Dont indulge in road rage with anyone. Only you know the value of your motorcycle and dont need to prove to any random strangers on the road about your motorcycle's performance.

For a 390 cc bike, the buying price is too high Riding this bike is too good and the looks of the bike are too sexy and the graphics of this bike are amazing and the performance is also good for this segment.Service and maintenance of this bike are somewhat high. These bike parts are too high, this is the best bike in this segment.
