    Captain Cool hits the racetrack!

    MS Dhoni Rides The KTM 390 Duke  At A Racetrack

    Quick Highlights:

    • The cricketer was seen riding a KTM Duke 390 at the racetrack 

    • MS Dhoni launched the all-new TVS Eurogrip Trailhound STR

    • The event was held at MIC (Madras International Circuit)

    MS Dhoni

    The former Indian cricket team captain, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, was recently spotted riding the KTM 390 Duke at MMRT (Madras Motor Race Track), at a launch event of the Eurogrip tyres. And being a motorcycle enthusiast himself, Captain Cool took it seriously -- he was seen riding in a full set of track-riding gear. 

    Eurogrip Trailhound STR

    Eurpgrip Trailhound STR

    The Eurogrip Trailhound STR are 90 percent road biased and 10 percent rough-road-biased tyres. The tyreswill be well suited for riders who mostly ride on tarmac, with occasional encounters with gravel and broken sections. The thread pattern is claimed to deliver good grip across varied surfaces. 

     

    Tyre 

    Price 

    Trailhound STR TL 90/90-21 54V  

    Rs 5,415

    Trailhound STR 150/70 R17 69V 

    Rs 15,599

     

    These tyres are a perfect fit for the bikes like the KTM 390 Adventure, Royal Enfield Himalayan 450, and Yezdi Adventure.

    The combination of the sticky rubber and the KTM 390 Duke is a perfect combo for the track. The KTM 390 Duke is powered by a 349.32cc engine, which produces 41.5 PS and 33.5 Nm. It is paired with a six-speed gearbox and gets a bi-directional quickshifter for quick downshifts and upshifts, which is much needed at a racetrack.

      Best bike ever ktm made.
      Best bike for those who want performance and electronics or i can say that perfect combination of power and safety. But yeah not for beginners who have never driven 300 or 300+ cc bikes for them duke is definitely going to be a kill machine the performance and braking system is providing great performance, and it's just insane.

      Awesome Product by KTM, this time they understand the Indian market very well.
      If you are buying this motorcycle directly and have not driven a 390cc before, then this 350cc engine will give you the best performance. All the features are the same. Only the engine has a little less power, but that 4-5 bhp is not noticeable. However, the torque is a little noticeable, but as I said, if you have not driven a 390, you will not be able to understand the difference.

      Power rocket
      To be honest, I was confused between this and the the Triumph speed 400 but the 390 is just a different vibe. It's got an aggressive look that stands out in the college parking, plus in mumbai u need that instant power to gap vehicles. Nothing in this budget gives you this much performance , power , feel and technology its a beast!!.The acceleration is very unreal , but the enginge gets quite hot when you're stuck at a signal for too long. Suspension is a bit stiff, so you'll feel the mumbai potholes , but on highsway its very stable. Handling is very light yess but keep in mind its not a family bike. its for people who love speed and beginners pls stay away cuz power delivery is very sharppp. Best 400cc . Best for long rides and joyriding. Crazy beast for real
