For MY2024, there are a tonne of updates that unlock new possibilities for the bike. We’re talking about new design, new chassis, new engine, new instrument cluster, new electronics and a lot more. Let’s take a look.2024 KTM 390 Duke UnveiledThe new 390 Duke is an epitome of single-cylinder engine motorcycles in India. That said, there are new entrants in this segment with legacy badging to back them up. We’re talking about Harley-Davidson X440 and Triumph Speed 400. Both of them operate in similar attributes and Speed 400 has more vigour to rival 2024 KTM 390 Duke.2024 KTM Duke 390KTM has taken the performance game a notch up. The new 399cc engine has more performance to offer, as opposed to the old 373cc unit. This new engine makes 44 bhp of power and 39 Nm of torque as opposed to 42.9 bhp and 37 Nm of the old engine. Addition in displacement should enable better in-gear performance too.KTM is offering a slipper clutch, a bi-directional quick shifter and a 6-speed gearbox. These are nothing new as they were part of current 390 Duke as well. But the new and improved 2024 390 Duke packs a host of new electronics too.

Sure, LED headlight design can split opinions. But fuel tank and tank shrouds along with seats and rear subframe look much better than before and lend a larger size appeal. There is a banana-shaped rear swingarm along with a sleek and small exhaust can.The seating posture should be neutral with a decent compromise between everyday usability and sporty stance. Componentry includes a brand new trellis frame, fully adjustable front USD telescopic forks from WP and disc brakes at either end. Dual-channel ABS, cornering ABS, Supermoto ABS are present too.Kerb weight is an impressive 165 kg (without fuel). KTM is offering a slew of Powerparts accessories too.

      New KTM Duke 390 Global Launch Today – Duke 125, Duke 250 Teased

      by

      New KTM 390 Duke production startsKTM will launch the new Duke 390, Duke 250 and the Duke 125 today in the global marketKTM has just dropped a bombshell across its social media platforms, announcing the imminent launch of the new 125 Duke, 250 Duke, and 390 Duke. These highly anticipated motorcycles are set to make their global debut today, with an India launch expected in the coming weeks. This unexpected move by KTM has created a buzz among motorcycle enthusiasts and promises to end 2023 on a high note.Made in India, For the WorldThese new KTM Dukes will be manufactured by Bajaj in India and then exported to markets worldwide. However, Indian riders are in for a special treat, as they will be the first to experience these cutting-edge motorcycles, with the release expected to hit Indian showrooms next month.From leaked spy shots, it’s evident that KTM has given the new Dukes a substantial styling makeover, particularly focusing on a sharper and more aggressive front-end design. While the side and rear profiles of the bikes are expected to remain largely unchanged, the revamped front end is poised to make a bold statement on the road.A Sportier Profile for the 390 DukeOf particular interest is the next-generation KTM 390 Duke, which has been spotted in a production-ready format. The last major redesign for the 390 Duke was in 2017 with the introduction of the BS4 version. The upcoming model boasts a fresh color scheme, more pronounced bodywork, and updated cycle parts.New KTM Duke 390. Credit – Motorrad OnlineOne striking visual update is the adoption of a new colour theme, inspired by the larger 1290 Super Duke R. The introduction of a vibrant blue hue injects a dynamic and aggressive character into the bike. The front end features a sleeker LED headlight design, shedding the plastic shrouds of the current model. Additionally, new switchgear and a TFT dash suggest the possibility of equipping the bike with an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU). This advanced technology could enable features such as traction control and cornering ABS, enhancing both safety and performance.Enhanced Ergonomics and PerformanceThe 2024 KTM 390 Duke is set to raise the bar in terms of features and performance. It is expected to include IMU-based lean-sensitive cornering ABS, a traction control system, and various riding modes, in addition to the existing features available on the current model. Adjustable suspension at both ends promises riders greater control and comfort on diverse terrains.Beneath the sleek new bodywork, the next-gen KTM 390 Duke will be powered by a brand-new 399cc liquid-cooled engine. This powerplant is expected to deliver more power and torque than the current version’s 43 bhp and 37 Nm. The improved performance will be channeled through a precise six-speed gearbox, ensuring that the bike continues to deliver thrilling rides.With these impressive updates, it’s likely that the new Dukes will come with a higher price tag. However, KTM has always been synonymous with outstanding performance and advanced features, which have garnered a dedicated following. Enthusiasts who prioritize these aspects of motorcycling are likely to find the investment more than worthwhile. More
