3 reasons to not buy one | KTM 390 Duke FAQ #3

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

As lovely as the 390 Duke can be, it isn't for everyone. One. It does run hot and you will feel on your legs in city traffic, especially when stopped. Especially if you cannot be bothered to be in riding gear all the time. The shorts and flip-flops brigade -- heat is hardly the big issue -- will suffer on the 390 for sure. Two. It can be all calm and smooth but the 390 generally urges you to go faster and can be deceptively fast. It needs skill to ride well and concentration to ride, all the time. It's quite the commitment. Three. The 390 began in 2013 at a great price point. But today, the 390 Duke is a reasonably expensive purchase. Consider point two... the Duke 250 is quite a bit less intense to ride, but not slow and might be a better buy for many.

    i dont see 200cc upp to 400cc to be a beginner in our country most riders drive it hard without braking and late braking on tight corners specialy on public roads maybe your country has a strict regulation those bikes has limits while our country has to much to prove it depends on your skill

The BS3 390 was a wild machine and felt like a more powerful version of the 200 Duke. The BS4 feels watered down. If you have a BS4 200 Duke, do NOT get the 250. It won't feel like much of an upgrade. I have never ridden a 250 but I am sure it is kess powerful than the 390. Maybe wait for the upcoming platform?

    RBJ! Good to see you again! We love the thought-through attitude. The 250 to 390 as it is today is not a big step although the 390 is quite a bit more aggressive. The 250 is a very very good machine though. It's not as angry as the 390 but it isn't slow either. As much as we're enthralled by the 390, we do recommend the 250 a lot!

    I have a 2018 BS4 Duke 390, was looking to upgrade to Z900 or Street Triple RS, but sold it and got a CB300R, since budget was cut for a superbike, as I bought a MG ZS EV. CB300R is much better than Duke 390 in city riding conditions, as this bike has great initial torque which was lacking in Duke 390, in Duke 390 you have to downshift gears whenever you slow down, otherwise the engine will start jerking if you try to pull it in a higher gear. In CB300R its much better, the bike will pull from a higher gear at low speeds without any stress.

So good, lightweight, easy to ride and yet so much fun, I think from now on I'll always recommend KTM to any beginner biker or someone who's looking to break the monotony in their rides. I love it. The only reason I don't have one is due to money, but I hope soon I get a chance to own a brand new one.

    I have ridden 2019 duke 390 and the heat in city is manageable with a jeans, the only part it can be issue is where it hits the heel area between shoes and jeans. Fuel economy in traffic is another huge factor for people who care about fuel economy. Sometimes its worse than an economy car. And its true regarding the bike's nature, it just wants to be above 100. But its a sweet experience and there's no doubt in that. Never in my riding experience i felt the need to upgrade, it was always ample.

I test rode a Duke 390 before and this thing is just as crazy but doesn't have the same pull as the Duke after the first 120km/h. Build quality is amazing and so are the ergonomics. I didn't find anything wrong with the seating and height and I'm used to my feet being planted firmly on every bike i ride. Definitely my top buy right now while i try to test ride a Ninja 300 and a Yamaha R3 2023

    ​@@certifiedhoodclassic7833adding my two cents, i think you would be much happier with the cb rather than the r3 or ninja. the latter two are more powerful but they make their power way up in the rev range. if you are someone who enjoys hitting the redline and dont mind sacrificing low-end power, it wont really matter much but just from my POV the honda is way more fun. and its light af too, around 150kgs wet, so a lot more manouverable
