KTM’s New 790 Duke Spotted Testing In Europe

Spy shots of the middleweight naked bike from KTM reveal its sharp design, minimalistic proportions and a parallel twin engine

Spy shots of the middleweight naked bike from KTM reveal its sharp design, minimalistic proportions and a parallel twin engine

The KTM 790 Duke prototype was first showcased at the EICMA Motor show in Milan last year. Few months ahead of the EICMA show, the motorcycle has been spotted testing in Europe. The bike gets a sharper looking front design with new dual split headlamps, which are a part of the new KTM design language. It gets a redesigned rear design with a repositioned underseat right-aligned exhaust muffler unit. The design of the rear section along with the muffler unit does look slightly curvy compared to the sharp lines of the entire bike.

The KTM 790 Duke is powered by the parallel twin engine and gets dual disc brakes at the front and a single disc brake unit at the rear. Suspension work is handled by beefy USD telescopic forks at the front and a single monoshock unit at the rear.

It is expected that KTM will be showing off the bike at the EICMA Motor Show 2017. It will come loaded with features like all the KTM bikes in the pipeline and will be a good value for money bike. The power output figures have not surfaced yet but the bike will face competition from the Kawasaki Z800 and Triumph Speed Triple.

Great bike

I choosed duke 390 because of its raw power and it's stylish, look and it has good features at this price point. And it looks way better than other bikes and back in 2021.There was no such bike as this so I chose this bike This bike goes crazy. It has crazy power and the suspension on it also is a stiff you can adjust it so it's good and the breaking on the bike is very good till now I love it. and the quick shifter also is really very good. I would recommend this bike to every guy who wants raw power and good features at this price point because ktm is really very good bike but if you're a beginner, then I think you should get a duke250 cause. This bike goes crazy you can crash . .But it's in your hands if you can handle it or no.

I'm lucky to be a rider of duke 390

Basically duke 390 is a worthy of money & it's designated style. I'm happy to have it. Sometimes it's service may be charged some exceptional bt btw duke 390 always on peak. So i suggest that everyone should try this and experience what's in it. I love my duke 390 so much.. So guys when u have guts to overcome something then just do it.
