KTM India has launched the 2022 390 Duke in the Indian market with new colour options. The sub-500cc roadster from the Austrian brand is available in two new paint schemes – Dark Galvano and Liquid Metal. The Dark Galvano theme features a stealthy look while Liquid Metal packs a bolder colour combination with a bright orange paint for the fuel tank, rear panel, and chassis.
The changes to the 2022 model are limited to the addition of paint revisions. Meanwhile, the motorcycle retains styling elements such as the 1290 SuperDuke-inspired headlight, a muscular fuel tank, split-style seat, side-slung exhaust, and 17-inch alloy wheels on both ends. The feature list, too, remains unaltered and the 2022 390 Duke retains full-LED lighting, Bluetooth-enabled colour-TFT display, quickshifter, and dual-channel ABS.
The mechanical specifications are identical to its predecessor and the 2022 model continues to use the BS6-compliant 373cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine that makes 42.9bhp at 9,000rpm and 37Nm of peak torque at 7,000rpm. The hardware on the motorcycle comprises trellis frame, aluminium swingarm, upside-down front forks, preload-adjustable rear mono-shock, and disc brakes on both wheels.
The KTM 390 Duke rivals the likes of the Honda CB300R and the Bajaj Dominar 400 in the Indian market.
The average of the 390 Duke [2022-2023] is 29 kmpl, as per the owners of the bike.

This bike has very comfortable seating for riders with amazing features and a monster look. I feel very comfortable on long rides. Excellent build quality, a very good bike but without a helmet don't ride it because it is a very powerful machine. This bike is very good for everything I recommend buying this powerful machine thankyou KTM for the 390 powerful machine.

KTM Duke 390
34 weeks ago

The buying experience of the KTM Duke 390 was incomparable to anything. I bought my motorcycle in the month of May 2017 out of the very first lot. I took delivery after all the paperwork was done. My first ride experience was amazing as I twisted the throttle the motorcycle instantly pulled a wheelie outside the KTM showroom and the people who went through watched me like I was a crazy fool. Riding experience is the best. I was a person who considered motorcycles as mere machines who could take me from point A to B. Boy was I wrong. This motorcycle changed the way I look at motorcycles and I was taking it all in. I went on to join online forums, and biker groups inside the city, and went for breakfast rides to nearby cities like Pondicherry, Bangalore, Telangana, etc. Talking about looks and performance this motorcycle boasts looks that cannot be compared to any motorcycle. of course, the Dominar was sharing its engine and internal organs but it was a SOHC, and Duke 390 was a DOHC which made a whole lot of difference. A feature-packed motorcycle that came out of the factory with Ride by wire, slipper clutch, ABS with supermoto mode, TFT display, USD forks, and Metzeler tyres which just hugged the road when I was cornering. If you need your Duke 390 to perform you have to give proper care to it. I went to changing different engine oils from Motul, Castrol, Shell, and Pertonas to perform like anything, and of course, there is a heat management which is not that good. But you have to use Engine Ice Coolant to sort out that issue. Finally, if you are someone who wants to learn what motorcycle riding is all about you have to try riding a KTM Duke 390 at least 100 kms. I am sure you will fall for it. Ride safe.

Tips for other riders
Change the engine oil every 7500 kms, use engine ice as coolant, use shell power fuel only to get optimum performance, use metzeler tyres or michelin road 5's, keep optimum tyre pressure, get a visor to reach extra speeds while riding on highways. always use a good quality helmet and gloves. Dont indulge in road rage with anyone. Only you know the value of your motorcycle and dont need to prove to any random strangers on the road about your motorcycle's performance.

Negative points Heating issue, Ground clearance, Seat comfortable, Vibration could have been better, Mileage could have been better. And all is well. Many positive points are the quick shifter, auto blipper, ride-by wire, one of the best braking systems, best initial pickup, best-looking bike, TPT display and many options, and many positive sites.

KTM 390 Duke.
35 weeks ago
Krishna Kumar
The 390 Duke though, that's for the nutters. It's not the most comfortable and demands a lot from you but if brute performance in a light-weight package is what you're looking for, it doesn't get any better than this in the sub-400cc streetfighter segment.Is Duke 390 good for daily use?Yes, it can be the only problem you might face is the heating. Yes, but gives too much acceleration in traffic. Yeah but in traffic your thighs will get burned. Yes, it can be used for daily use with no problem but there is a heating issue in the summer.

Ktm experience

Personally, KTM 390 Duke is one of my favourites. KTM is one of the most popular motorcycles on the planet earth. They have a different niche of riders that are hungry for performance and looks at affordable price.Service cost is high but you can not mention. Looking great riding great best performance.Pros and cons are this is big for a small height person.
