The wait is finally over! KTM has just revealed the highly addicted 390 adventure at EICMA 2019, in Milan. The test mules were spotted numerous times in near-production ready form, and a lot of the bike was revealed from them. We’re still awaiting more details on the 390 Adventure, so here’s what we know so far.
The 390 ADventure is essentially an off-road oriented version of the 390 Duke and will use the same 373.2cc single-cylinder. Whether KTM has made changes to its internals or gearing is still unknown. Like we’d earlier reported, the 390 Adventure is running on a 100/90-19 tyre at the front and a 130/80-17 tyre at the rear. The suspension will likely offer more travel than on the naked Duke, and we will update this space when we have more details.
We expect the 390 Adventure to cost somewhere around the Rs 3 lakh mark, and it will launch in the country at IBW in December. When it does, it will still cost significantly less than its nearest rival – the BMW G 310 GS (Rs 3.49 lakh). This KTM is also likely to be the company’s first BS6/Euro 5 model. While a lot about the motorcycle still remains to be discovered, we now know what it looks like.
