Nice review. Thanks for reviewing in English. Audio is clear. I can see even Philippines has great passion with KTM and Royal Enfield. Love from India.

The Duke 390 was my first ever motorcycle (not first BIG BIKE, first MOTORCYCLE). They mentioned that the throttle response is responsive because it's ride by wire. This is actually helpful for beginners, because there are no surprises on the throttle. The power delivery is consistent, and it's super lightweight. Great for lane filtering in EDSA. Don't get swayed too much by people discouraging you to not start on a "big bike". As long as you have proper Motorcycle school training, you can handle this lightweight beast. 😊

@@Ivan-bg1jp it's possible, as long as you get proper Motorcycle training (Honda Safety Driving Center, Zero2podium Riding School, etc.), invest in proper riding gear. In my personal opinion, 790 is too much motorcycle for a beginner. You can get away with a 400cc, but not really with a 790. It's better to ride a slow bike fast, than a fast bike slow.

400cc bikes are considered beginner bikes, and are good beginner bikes, even in other countries. It's stereotyped here as "Big Bikes" coz of that stupid 400cc rule.

Im starting to like this channel... nice review! good job!

One of the coolest and informative reviewes that I've ever watched, thank u for a video guys !

Outstanding review. If you guys are able to do more comparison videos with the Naked/standard/supersport of different manufacturers you will be the go to channel for buyers. Salamat Po!

I own a 2021 Duke and I love the aggressive midrange power delivery. It rides very well and is comfy. It can be a little bit jerky at low speeds but knock it down a gear two and it disappears. Great fun bike!

Good review - greetings from Canada

Very precise review for both KTM powerful 390 Bikes! Thank you so much!

BEST CHANNEL!!

yow, I got a question, does the superduke 3.0 (2020 model) and the new 890 duke R be laucnhed here on our country?

Where did you get the Icon Mesh AF? Locally or imported? Thanks!

My first sportbike was Honda CB300F it is a Perfect Beginner bike for a First bike, its not super fast but I would happily buy a duke 390 as my next sportbike

Cool presentation

Nice Icon AF mesh jacket. San kayo nakabili nyan dito sa pinas sir? Ty sa sagot. Ridesafe.

Helpful hint when doing reviews. Clean bikes first. Completely

nice review 👍, Ride safe

Thank you I was looking for this comparison from quite sometime. RC is very tempting but at the end the duke is the best.

Good review. The Indian model Duke 390 (2020) already addressed the heating issues by moving the bend pipe below the engine. So now the heat is all gone. But it took a toll on ground clearance. As a owner of Duke 200 and 390, I would say anytime that the KTM is the best u can buy in this segment!!!!

Do you think it'll be possible to move it back into the same position?. I had a Duke 200 and i like it's sound much better than the 2017+ 250/390. I know someone who has fitted a pre 2017 Exhaust on a 2018 Duke 390 albeit with a few mods to the frame to stop the cat from vibrating. I was wondering if it's possible to do the same for the 2020 models. ie. Put the bend pipe back to it's original position, I'm not worried about costs or Heating. Thanks.

Idk I think I’m still in love with the rc the look is what I dream of, its what I see when I close my eyes. Yea sure I could be a little uncomfortable but a true sport bike is one of the coolest things to own in my opinion. So it will be my first highway bike soon…

You want comfort=Duke. You are young and not planning on long trips=RC. Both great bikes with big personality

Tracer 900 next please Sir 👌hehe Stay safe always 🔥✌

What kind of jacket was earl wearing ?

I read that the RC390 needs to be at higher speeds and aggressive riding to prevent stalling. Not sure if true. Either the KTM RC 390, Ninja 400, or the CBR300R. But my budget is on the GSX250R.

Lock the rear usually happens for supermoto which means you can "drift" your rear to corner faster or to change the trajectory quicker...... I am not sure because we also have that terminology in karting... hope this helps...

Good review. I enjoyed that and subbed. My only issue with the Duke 390 (the bike I chose to come back to biking after a 25 year break) is the throttle response at low revs. I think a smoother delivery might have been better for what is labelled a 'beginner bike'. Do you know how the 390 Adventure compares with the Duke 390, in riding terms? It's definitely a lot more expensive.

@ajaydyas4699

3 жыл бұрын

I have the Duke and I've ridden the Adventure, there's a big difference. It almost feels like a different engine, the Adventure is much smoother and you feel like you're floating along while the Duke is an angry bike that just wants to open the throttle and rip. The adventure is a good bike for a middle-aged person while I'm under 30 and like the Duke but not in the city.

I agree that ktm motorcycles is fun to ride according to more reviews out there, but the only thing is that, why they are quite expensive compare to their rivals knowing that they are built in india, particularly kawasaki with same category? Ok we all know that ktm's are originally Austrian bike..
