Good luck finding an 890 in a dealer. Apparently they only released very limited quantities. The 790, on the other hand, you can get for around $8k now.

They replaced the 790 with the 890 because the 790 doesn’t comply with European emissions standards. The 890 does.

I think the 890 duke is better than the 790 in almost every way. The suspension, brakes, handling and engine is far superior. There should be a larger price gap between the two, right now it's only a $1,000 difference. At that point, most people will go for the 890. Also, are you sure the 890 weighs 375 lbs WET?

I haven't seen this kind of content in a while.. it really takes me back daddy Yams, as a KTM Fanboi I whole heartedly agree with your points on KTM and their bikes.

I bought a 790 little over a year ago and though it was fun in small doses.. it was awful for commuting, long rides, and just everyday use. It couldn't hold a slow speed without freaking out, you had to slip the clutch everywhere in traffic. It shook like a leaf at high speeds, and the riding position had you holding on like a windsock. I really wanted to love it but it was a chore to ride and after a few months the headgasket started leaking oil.. So now I own the street triple. Little less torque which is a bit sad, but yeah almost no complaints in comparison. Hear the 890 is a lot better though.

@शिरीष ರಾಮಾಯ Nah, I don't have the need for the extra power or adjustability of the 890, nor do I want the cost of insurance. 490 is not as much power as I'd like. 790 is in the sweet spot for me.

Well, I genuinely like how their supermotos look... I have since I was a kid. And since their older designs are stylistically similar to what most major brands are releasing this year I guess that market verified MY SUPERIOR TASTE 1:0

The 390 is awesome! Most bang for the buck!

Having ridden motorcycle,s for50+ years just purchased a390 duker causes much discomfort in my facial muscles constant cramping from smiling and feeling such joy being able to brake much later and hold wfo longer ouch ouch it hurt s!🤣

Owned the 2018 SDR 1290 for over 2 years now and it's the bike I've owned the longest, zero complaints and will never trade in for another bike. But I only use like maybe 70% of it's full potential at best, you're totally better off getting an 890R for street use, unless you're running track days. STILL, having that insane torque on tap is addicting and I love the styling, I couldn't bear to trade it in for an 890r.

I'm curious about when people harp on modern Japanese designs yet everybody is fine with the Dukes styling?

Guys so just you know. The clutch is not a magura hydraulic clutch. It's a cable clutch. That being said, I own one of these and i totally, totally love the thing.

I had the 390 duke, enjoyed it until about 550 miles into it the oil light turned on while riding. I shut it off immediatly and trailered it in to the dealer. It turns out the oil pick up screans were plugged with metal shavings. Two months later they finished rebuilding the motor just in time for winter. I put 600 miles on it in the snow covered roads of colorado. At that seconed first service it had the same problem. They changed the oil and said put a thousand miles on and change it again to see what it does. I road it like i stole it for a thousand miles and it did the same thing but less metal. I traded for the 790 straight away and have been very happy since. I think if the 390 had the power of a crf 450 it would be great

Just bought a 2020 duke 790 2 days ago as my first bike. so much fun!

I bought the first, and probably only , ktm Duke in 1995 in Texas. Beautiful wheels and very unique....buuuttt...riding lime creek rd it would die while braking for turns. Stupid crap carb ! And it was a left side kick only. No electric start. Was able to auction the P.O.S. off in Dallas. Swore off the brand. Until I rode a superduke 990 in 2008 at cresson trackday. The most fun track bike for me during that time. Bought one and have owned 990 superduke..2 990 Smts. Great and reliable bikes now with usable fun engines. I'll buy another just not sure which model next. Great informative video sir.

There is also the duke 790l with 95hp on which you can decrease the power to 48hp. Doing so makes it legal to ride for owners of the european a2 license, who want to upgrade to an unregulated license later on. So now you dont have to switch you bike.

ST 765 was gonna be my for-sure buy, then I saw the 890 R. About the same HP (give or take 1-2), way more torque, lighter, better (IMO) looking, close to the same price after tech pack (tsk tsk KTM and all that upgrade garbage)...KTM was a no-brainer. >3k miles on mine now :D

I’m not sure. I’m a 5’5 woman, and I think the seat height of the 790 is about the max I could handle. It’s still really lightweight, and I’m thinking the 890 might be overkill for my second motorcycle. I really like the Duke, and how light it is.

I was hesitating about buying the 890 Duke because all the stories about fiability failures of KTM. But the dealer offered me a very good price and I pulled the trigger. First 5.000km and I'm in love with this bike, is so light, agile and stable that you can use with confidence all the explosive power and torque that this brillant motor has. After first service I bought the tech pack that bring track mode and quickshifter+, the same electronics of the R model, and the bike becomes a beast. It always put a big smile on my face!

@@cemozcan3630 for this kind of use the standard model or the GP (less sporty and more confortable position) are more suited than the R model. The lightness and agilty of the bike makes it really easy to go througth traffic, but it’s a torque/powerful motor that always want to jump to high rpm. It feels better in a twisty road or in a empty street that in heavy traffic. I use to ride my brother's Teneré 700 (same motor as MT-07), the difference in power and torque is noticiable, but the Duke 890 in rain mode (less powerful and more smooth response) feels near to the Yamaha. I also use the bike to commute but in 30km of mountain twisty roads and just a few kms of urban traffic, the 890 Duke makes it easy.

The 890r and 790 are the same bike in the same way the stripple s, r and rs are the same bike. They all share the same frame and engine cases with different internals and suspension/ brakes.

The front on the 890 is actually not “fully” adjustable - there’s no preload adjustment. Which is no good. I mean, man, either give me a bike that I don’t have change the suspension on or don’t.

Yes and no. Husky was actually the one to come up with the better counterbalanced LC4 engine which KTM then adopted from them. This is seen from the fact that the 2017 701 already had the smoother engine, but took KTM until 2019 to get it. Husky is also the only one of the two offering the "LR" version of the 690/701 enduro. As of this year KTM did give the Husky the quick shifter for their 701. So it really goes both ways.

There’s a reason huskies are like thousand bucks more expensive , it’s not just because they’re white

Are these 790,s/890,s easy to get more power out of If I want to get it tweaked up some. Also can you get a great note from a custom made stainless exhaust ?? Love any feed back mainly about power gains ...

If you remove the cat the stock exhaust sounds pretty good. And as far as power, open up the air box and put a tuner on it, thats about it.

Is it worth getting a ninja 400 as a first sports bike in Ontario Canada. I do have 2 years of experience driving up to 125 CCs in Pakistan to be specific. Also, if I'm fine with second-hand bikes, which one is cheaper?

I love my 890R but I will need to put on different tires for winter time. The stock tires are just street legal track tires.

@@alex5761 zero issues so far. I did about 3000km on it. The 890R is great. It's so light and nimble. Great fuel economy as well. My biggest complain is the size of the fuel tank. I would have preferred a few more liters. My previous bike was a super Duke 990R 2009. That bike was more extreme, more difficult to ride.
