KTM 390 Adventure Rally with spoke wheels to launch soon in India

- Will come with adjustable front suspension

- To be priced around Rs. 30,000 to Rs. 40,000 more

KTM recently introduced two new variants of the 390 Adventure, the more affordable X version and the low-seat V option. Now, the Austrian bike maker is set to launch the off-road-focused KTM 390 Adventure Rally variant, complete with spoke wheels and adjustable suspension. Whether or not it will be named the 390 Adventure Rally is still unconfirmed, as the same variant is christened the KTM 390 Adventure SW internationally.

When will the KTM 390 Adventure Rally be launched?

According to our sources, the KTM 390 Adventure Rally is likely to be launched soon, and we can expect it to go on sale towards the end of this month or latest by early next month.

What changes will the KTM 390 Adventure Rally get?

The most significant change will be the introduction of spoke wheels, and our source suggests that it will be a tubeless setup. So, no worries about punctures. Further, the Rally version will also get an adjustable front suspension with the ability to adjust the preload and rebound damping. The rally variant could also benefit from knobby tyres, which were spotted on the test prototypes a few months ago.

Will there be any performance upgrades?

The KTM 390 Adventure Rally will continue to be powered by a 373cc liquid-cooled, single-cylinder motor that pushes out 42.9bhp and 37Nm. Power will be transferred to the wheels via a six-speed gearbox that is assisted by a slipper clutch.

What will be the KTM 390 Adventure Rally price?

The introduction of the above-mentioned hardware will result in a substantial price hike, and we expect it to be to the tune of Rs. 30,000 to Rs. 40,000 over the existing model. So, we can expect it to cost around Rs. 3.80 lakh (ex-showroom).
