The KTM 390 DUKE is a pure example of what draws so many to the thrill of street motorcycling. This Corner Rocket maximizes enjoyment and user value, taking the honors wherever nimble handling counts. Light as a feather, powerful and packed with state-of-the-art technology, it guarantees a thrilling ride, whether you're fighting your way through the urban jungle or carving your name into a forest of bends.
SUSPENSION
The KTM 390 DUKE comes as standard with ultra-lightweight, high-performance upside-down WP forks. Using the latest open-cartridge technology, these forks not only perform above expectations when pushed to the limits, but are also nice and easy to maintain. This makes them perfect for all aspects of riding, from relaxed cruising to hammering around on closed circuits and everything in between.
SHOCK ABSORBER
Thanks to its progressive 150 mm spring, the KTM 390 DUKE will perform in any environment you can throw at it. The preload is adjustable, so you can count on well-balanced suspension whether you’re riding solo or two-up, with or without luggage, on road or on track. The choice is yours.
ULTRA-LIGHT WHEELS
As light as they are stable, the 17-inch cast alloy racing wheels help you put the power down with confidence, utilizing a 110 mm wide tire at the front and an impressive 150 mm at the rear. Wrapped in premium rubber, the pro-spec tires will keep your KTM 390 DUKE glued to the road. They offer outstanding grip in both wet and dry conditions, as well as providing supreme durability, even for riders that know how to push tires to their absolute limits.
STOPPING POWER - BRAKES
A high-tech BYBRE braking system works in perfect harmony with the advanced ABS, providing riders with firm, controlled stopping power when they need it most. With a 320 mm brake disc on the front, paired with a 230 mm disc on the rear, the KTM 390 DUKE delivers exceptional pro-level stopping power, and you know what they say: "braking harder makes you faster!"
PERFECT KNEE CONTACT - FUEL TANK
The innovative and ergonomic 13.4 liter steel fuel tank not only provides riders with perfect knee contact for attacking every corner, but also with an unbelievably long range, even when you ride as fast as you dare all day long.
HANDLEBAR
Hi-tech upright handlebars offer KTM 390 DUKE riders a controlled yet aggressive body position, allowing you to dominate in all aspects of riding. From destroying corners to pulling the perfect stoppie, these bars will give you the balance and confidence you need to attack the tarmac like never before. Clutch and brake levers are fully adjustable, allowing you to customize your cockpit to suit your individual riding style.
HAND LEVERS
The clutch and break lever are adjustable in order to match the needs of any rider's hand type.
SEATED FOR SPEED - SEATS
The two-part seat offers first class sport riding ergonomics with perfect support for both rider and pillion. A seat height of 820 mm enables riders to have a super-secure position, whilst also being high enough for ultimate cornering fun. The pillion seat has been integrated into the bodywork so as not to compromise the stunt-ready look of the KTM 390 DUKE, whilst also ensuring excellent comfort for the passenger.
TFT COLOR DISPLAY
As an absolute first in its class, the KTM 390 DUKE boasts an innovative multicolor TFT display, presenting all the data you need to go faster in a clear-cut, uncluttered way. As you rev the engine, the display bars change color, either spurring you on or telling you to back off when the engine’s still cold. The display also automatically adapts its color to best suit the light conditions around you. Innovation at its best!!!
MENU SWITCH
Different modes for the various built-in assistance systems can be selected using an illuminated menu switch on the left side of the handlebar. It's very simple and intuitive: flick "up" and "down" through the menu, select the desired setting with the right button or go a step back with the left. Job done. Race on.
MEAN ILLUMINATION - LED HEADLIGHT
The aggressively styled LED headlight on the KTM 390 DUKE is a big highlight in this bike’s design and a clear referral to its big brother, the KTM 1290 SUPER DUKE R. Practical as well as looking ultra-mean, it produces outstanding visibility for riding in low light or dark conditions. The parking light, which consists of 20 LEDs, ensures that the bike is highly visible to other road users, keeping you safe while you dominate the streets.
RIDER AIDS
The KTM 390 DUKE utilizes market leading technology to enhance your ride and provide you with all the assistance you need to help turn the streets into your own personal playground.
ABS
Dual circuit BOSCH ABS is standard equipment on the KTM 390 DUKE. Use it to your advantage to enhance control and safety.
SUPERMOTO MODE
Thrill-seeking riders will love the added fun-factor (and extra racetrack control) of the advanced "Supermoto mode", activated at the push of a button. When engaged, the system will only control the front brake. Rear brake pressure is entirely up to the rider's right foot, allowing you to push your riding skills to the absolute limit.
