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.
3 > easy availability to spare parts and wide range of
service centers.
4 > can be used for all purposes. Whether it's city
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.

Tips for KTM 390 Duke [2022-2023]

Servicing should be done in every 4k kms of use. Try using Michelin Road 5 tyres for better performance. Am using liqui Moly street race Mobil. Indeed it's better than Motul 7100 10w 50. For chain clean and lube am using 66BHP products.

That was superbike, that rode smoothly and screen animation best, break was perfect, the red and white and black colour combination was very pretty. the 390 Duke that established the orange brand as a maker of properly serious and quick high-performance motorcycles. The Super Duke-inspired look has brought in larger, sharper tank extensions and an oddball headlight design.

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.

M: ### **1. Regular Engine Oil Checks and Changes:** - **Frequency:** Every 5,000 km or as recommended in the owner's manual. - **Why:** The engine oil lubricates, cools, and cleans engine parts. Regular changes keep the engine running smoothly and prevent wear. ### **2. Chain Maintenance:** - **Frequency:** Every 500 km or after riding in wet or dusty conditions. - **Steps:** Clean the chain with a degreaser

Hi sir ktm 390 and 250 are also great Experiences in my life and also 390 is a next-level performance in riding the bike so Acceleration is good
Old Duke is so good for looks
Performance is next level
Maintenance is fully essential but depends on how we maintain the bike that performance we get it in 390 Duke
Also 250 old Duke also good performance
Also my friends are looking to buy an old KTM Duke 390 or 250 Now but it's not Available
Please make sure the Reproduction of old Duke bikes
It's more needed for legends.

This bike has very comfortable seating for riders with amazing features and a monster look. I feel very comfortable on long rides. Excellent build quality, a very good bike but without a helmet don't ride it because it is a very powerful machine. This bike is very good for everything I recommend buying this powerful machine thankyou KTM for the 390 powerful machine.

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.

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.

This bike has very comfortable seating for riders with amazing features and a monster look. I feel very comfortable on long rides. Excellent build quality, a very good bike but without a helmet don't ride it because it is a very powerful machine. This bike is very good for everything I recommend buying this powerful machine thankyou KTM for the 390 powerful machine.

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.

Ktm 390 duke
1 week ago
Abhisek Padhi
That was superbike, that rode smoothly and screen animation best, break was perfect, the red and white and black colour combination was very pretty. the 390 Duke that established the orange brand as a maker of properly serious and quick high-performance motorcycles. The Super Duke-inspired look has brought in larger, sharper tank extensions and an oddball headlight design.

KTM 390 Duke
4 weeks ago

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.

If you like speed and thrill in your life this bike is for you, this bike contains a new generation BS6 engine, a very superb look, pack bike. Best for price range. The best performance bike, In India, this is the only bike you will get that flies, but expensive and high in Maintenance.. But this bike can remove your depression.

Tips for other riders
M: ### **1. Regular Engine Oil Checks and Changes:** - **Frequency:** Every 5,000 km or as recommended in the owner's manual. - **Why:** The engine oil lubricates, cools, and cleans engine parts. Regular changes keep the engine running smoothly and prevent wear. ### **2. Chain Maintenance:** - **Frequency:** Every 500 km or after riding in wet or dusty conditions. - **Steps:** Clean the chain with a degreaser

Duke 390

Hemanthraj
Hi sir ktm 390 and 250 are also great Experiences in my life and also 390 is a next-level performance in riding the bike so Acceleration is good
Old Duke is so good for looks
Performance is next level
Maintenance is fully essential but depends on how we maintain the bike that performance we get it in 390 Duke
Also 250 old Duke also good performance
Also my friends are looking to buy an old KTM Duke 390 or 250 Now but it's not Available
Please make sure the Reproduction of old Duke bikes
It's more needed for legends.

The buying experience was good it was my dream come true.
The riding experience is so awesome that we can feel every bit of the ride.
Bike performance and look are so attractive that everyone is noticed very quickly.
Service cost is a bit higher but the service center is good
Recommend riding with a proper riding kit for safety.
