                  Review of my duke 390
                  My purchase of the bike was the best thing ever. It was always my dream to buy a 390 and the performance is the best in its class. The maintenance is very cheap, mileage is decent according to this engine. Overall, its the best bike in its segment. Beast for a reason. Comfort and performance is on next level.

                  2025 duke 390
                  Its a great bike for beginners. The quick shifter, cruise control feature and the throttle response makes the ride really smooth. My experience with bike has been amazing and even on long rides the ride is comfortable. There is nothing more to say about it, you just have to experience it. At this price range, I don't think you will find a bike with these many features.

                  The beast on the loose 9k driven only KTM Duke 390
                  Most aggressive 398 cc powerful bike only driven 9000 km in less than 2 yrs. It delivers a surgical riding experience with a punchy engine that surprisingly settles into great fuel economy on long highway scratches. It just got minor scratches on tank pad else its mechanically mint. If you want raw power then this is for you.

                  very best bike
                  Riding experience is too good, this bike is futuristic at this price range. looks are awesome 398 cc, this bike can handle turns very well, maintenance period is too long 30 kmpl good range as an 400 cc bike. Very well designed, engine performance is too good into 3.5 lakhs segment good option to buy.

                  Good for beginners
                  I also own another 390 2017 one. I was excited the moment i saw this bike when it was unveiled.As it was packing a new engine and chassis. Firstly engine is not exciting like the older ones as they used to scare you while accelerating and brakes and kind of off on some aspects eg- While panic braking the abs makes the bike glide in some cases earlier ones used to stop on the spot like you crashed it into a wall or something Not as much powerful and raw as a 2017 duke 390.But it has its own charm brakes couldve been a little bit better and seat height on this is low so its kind of a turn off for me and also its cramped a lot. Good mileage as i get 35 to 38 on gentle riding and under harsh conditions i get about 22 to 26 Good for beginners and for the ones who were scared of the dukes earlier this baby is calm and gentle on the throttle upto 6000 rpm later on this bike turns it character from soft and smooth to something more ferocious. Also hard to gain confidence on the corners and seating is a bit weird depends on the individual rest it is a value for money product
