      India-Spec KTM 390 Adventure S, 390 Enduro R Debuts At IBW In Goa

      by

      India-spec KTM 390 Adventure S, 390 Enduro RWhere India-spec KTM 390 Adventure S emerges as an Adventure Tourer, 390 Enduro R sheds the bodywork and is a hardcore off-roader
      After a busy spectacle at EICMA 2024, KTM has brought its 390 Adventure lineup to India. The new 390 Adventure S and 390 Enduro R debuts in India for the first time at ongoing IBW (India Bike Weak) in Goa. Looking at these motorcycles, we can see that they are very close to what was shown at EICMA 2024.
      New KTM 390 Adventure
      Manufactured by Bajaj Auto in India, KTM’s 390 lineup holds quite a recall here and abroad. Known for its manic performance within the single-cylinder offerings, KTM 390 is quite popular. Within the 390 portfolio, 390 Adventure holds a special position as it caters to the widely popular Adventure Tourer genre.
      390 Adventure S
      Alongside 2025 KTM 390 Adventure, the company also showcased 390 Enduro and 390 SMC at EICMA 2024. These motorcycles are completely new from KTM. For India, KTM has showcased 390 Adventure S and 390 Enduro R. SMC 390, on the other hand, is a Supermoto motorcycle based on this platform with 17-inch wheels at both ends.
      Sticking with the just-debuted India-spec KTM 390 Adventure S and 390 Enduro R, the company has showcased them at ongoing IBW in Goa. There are differences between these two machines in the way they are built and their capabilities. 390 Adventure S is more of an Adventure Tourer with decent off-roading and trail capabilities.
      390 Enduro R
      Aventure S rides on 21-inch front and 17-inch rear wire-spoke wheels. Ground clearance is lower on 390 Adventure S and it gets a lower seat height, when compared to 390 Adventure R showcased at EICMA 2024. Suspension setup comprises of USD front forks and rear mono-shock and 390 Adventure S also gets a TFT instrument cluster.
      More capable 390 Enduro R
      On the other hand, 390 Enduro R is far more capable and is a proper off-roader. 390 Enduro is a more dedicated and hard-core off-roader with minimal bodywork and less weight. It gets a larger 21-inch front and 18-inch rear wire-spoke wheels combination. The suspension is likely to be fully adjustable for compression and rebound. Suspension travel could be around 230mm.
      390 Enduro R
      Because of the larger wheels and higher suspension travel, the ground clearance is higher as well. Thus the seat height has been pushed up too. Where features are concerned, 390 Enduro R gets similar attributes as seen with 390 Adventure S, sans the bodywork.
      390 Adventure S
      Where powertrains are concerned, both Adventure S and Enduro R gets the same 399cc DOHC 4V/cyl liquid-cooled single-cylinder motor from 390 Duke. This motor is capable of generating 45 bhp and 40 Nm, mated to a 6-speed gearbox, slipper clutch and a bi-directional quick-shifter. KTM might tune this engine differently to achieve an optimum character for these machines.

      New KTM 390 Adventure India Debut Teased
      The same 399cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine debuted with 390 Duke will power the new KTM 390 Adventure soon launching in India

      KTM has had the most activity in recent times. For starters, the company relaunched some of its big bike portfolio in India after a very long time. At the EICMA 2024 show, KTM showcased a bunch of technology and innovations. But for Indian market, the biggest talking point has to be 390 Adventure.

      This single-cylinder high-performance ADV tourer is one of KTM’s most celebrated models in India. The new generation model was unveiled at EICMA and is set for an official India debut at IBW 2024, held in Goa between December 6th and 7th. KTM India has teased the same on their social media handles. Let’s take a look.

      390 Adventure India Debut

      Ever since its launch, KTM 390 Adventure has been a staple name in the motorcycling fraternity. It offered a comfortable touring experience, light off-roading, rough-roading and high-speed cruising abilities. Features like the TFT instrument cluster with connectivity also helped the proposition.

      With the new generation of 390 Adventure, KTM is stepping up its game and is offering a lot more in terms of functionalities and capabilities. For starters, New 390 Adventure will be offered in multiple variants – 390 Adventure X and 390 Adventure R. The latter being the more exciting one of these two.
      2025 KTM 390 ADV at EICMA : Image – RokBagorosStuntrider

      Even though design, chassis and body panels are similar, 390 Adventure X is positioned below 390 Adventure R. X gets 19-inch front and 17-inch rear alloy wheels, apt for touring. At 200 mm, suspension has less travel and is non-adjustable. It even misses out on cornering ABS and the instrumentation is LCD unit.

      In comparison, 390 Adventure R emerges as the more hardcore one as it packs a lot of off-road-worthy hardware. For starters, it gets fully adjustable suspension with 230 mm of travel, 21-inch front and 18-inch rear wire-spoke wheels, higher ground clearance, a TFT instrument cluster, cruise control, dual-sport tyres and more.
      KTM 390 ADV R Side

      390 Adventure R also gets advanced rider aids like cornering ABS and MTC (Motorcycle Traction Control), among others. However, R has a seat height of 885 mm, which is substantially higher than X’s seat height of 825 mm.

      The same powertrain as 390 Duke

      The sharp and edgy bodywork, projector LED headlights, tall windscreen, knuckle guards, front beak, semi-fairing and fuel tank design are among the many attributes shared between both variants of New KTM 390 Adventure. They will also share the same 399cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that kicks out around 45 bhp and 40 Nm, mated to a 6-speed gearbox. It has to be seen whether KTM India is keen on introducing 390 Enduro and 390 SMC at IBW 2024. More

      Two variants – Adventure R, Adventure X
      A new teaser reveals the all-terrain capabilities of 2025 KTM 390 Adventure. While the current model is better suited for on-road environments, the new 390 Adventure will have two distinct variants. The 390 Adventure R variant is off-road capable, whereas the Adventure X model will continue with the tourer-centric profile. 2025 KTM 390 Adventure R gets an updated fascia that looks familiar to the new-gen Dukes.

      The front suspension is rebound and compression adjustable, whereas the rear monoshock suspension is preload and rebound adjustable. A new swingarm has been introduced to support the updated rear suspension. The bike uses an entirely new steel trellis frame at the front and an aluminium subframe at the rear.

      Team Orange has been very busy around the EICMA 2024 timeline. With its 390 portfolio, the company is showcasing three product lineups that have garnered worldwide interest. Riding on their popularity among motorcycling enthusiasts, KTM has just showcased 390 Adventure R, 390 Enduro R and 390 SMC R.
      2025 KTM 390 Adventure R
      These are among the most exciting product showcases at EICMA 2024. While 390 Adventure is a new generation of company’s adventure tourer, 390 Enduro and 390 SMC are completely new and have been breaking light for the first time ever. By unveiling these new products, KTM now offers five body styles with the 390 platform – Duke, RC, Adventure, Enduro and SMC.
      2025 KTM 390 Adventure R Unveiled
      2025 KTM 390 Lineup At EICMA
      Next-gen 390 Duke was launched first across many international markets including India, the other models within 390 lineup needed updating. Improving on their previous iterations are 390 Duke (street fighter) and just unveiled 390 Adventure (tourer, off-roader), while next Gen RC 390 is under testing.
      2025 KTM 390 Adventure R
      Now, KTM has added two entirely new body styles with 390 lineup – Enduro and SMC. Both motorcycles were just showcased at EICMA 2024. Before diving deep into Enduro and SMC, we have to start with 390 Adventure as it is the most popular one. For the next Gen 390 Adventure, KTM has been offering varied capabilities with the help of variants.
      2025 KTM 390 Adventure R
      390 Adventure is offered in X and R variants. Bodywork remains the same between the two, but only the 390 Adventure R variant gets TFT instrument cluster, cornering ABS and MTC. X variant is a more road-focused tourer with 19-inch front and 17-inch rear alloy wheels, non-adjustable front and rear suspension with 200 mm travel.
      [embedded content]
      R variant, on the other hand, is a more off-road-worthy offering with improved hardware like 21-inch front and 18-inch rear wire-spoke wheels, off-road tyres, and fully adjustable suspension with 230 mm travel, among others. Ground clearance is higher with R variant and seat height is 885 mm, while X variant has a seat height of 825 mm.
      2025 KTM 390 Enduro R
      390 Enduro R and 390 SMC R
      Where Adventure lineup is more of a semi-faired tourer/off-roader, KTM’s new Enduro lineup aims to be more hardcore and eager to take on the rough stuff. For starters, it ditches Adventure’s fairing and associated weight, making it more manageable to ride off-road. While it lacks a windscreen, it retains the front beak. Headlight and instrument clusters are a simpler units, unlike Adventure’s.
      2025 KTM 390 Enduro R
      Another new body style with KTM’s 390 lineup is SMC R, adhering to Supermoto genre. This is likely to be very popular owing to its fun quotient. The main differentiating factor is the 17-inch front and rear wheels wrapped with sporty tyres for maximum corner carving credentials. It gets unique styling with quirky elements, making it stand out within KTM’s 390 lineup.
      2025 KTM 390 SMC R
      All of the showcased 390 motorcycles (2025 KTM 390 Adventure R, 390 Enduro R and 390 SMC R) will be manufactured at Bajaj’s facility in Pune and shipped to various markets. New 390 Adventure (X and R) and 390 Enduro R are more likely to launch in India, while 390 SMC R might be skipped, until there is demand, of course. More

      2025 KTM 390 Adventure Leaks Ahead Of Launch

      by

      2025 KTM 390 Adventure Leaks Ahead Of Launch. Image – MotoScoopAs per the leaked information, there are multiple variants of 2025 KTM 390 Adventure with varied capability and off-road prowess
      November 2024 will be a busy month for KTM Bajaj duo as they are gearing up to launch the new Adventure series in India. Before that, these motorcycles will make their world premier at EICMA Show 2024 in multiple variants. Now, the India launch date is out, creating a lot of buzz around the product among enthusiasts.
      390 Adventure Launch Date
      While the Adventure lineup from KTM is popular for its versatility and touring capability, new Adventure lineup focuses on off-road capability as well. This will be the most crucial rival for Royal Enfield Himalayan 450, which has been dominating the sales charts within the adventure and tourer genres.
      KTM 390 ADV R Adjustable Suspension
      2025 KTM 390 Adventure lineup is a radical departure when compared to current model. When launched on 14th November, new KTM 390 Adventure will feature a far more edgier design with imposing road presence. Something which target demographic are likely to appreciate.
      While current model is more of a tourer, upcoming 390 Adventure is spawning a more off-road worthy variant. Called 390 Adventure R, it will feature fully adjustable suspension (compression and rebound) with 230 mm travel. Front wheel will be 21-inches and rear wheel will be 18-inches with higher ground clearance.
      2025 KTM 390 Adventure Cruise Control
      Also, it has to be noted that only the 390 Adventure R will get wire-spoke wheels. The other variant is 390 Adventure X that features 19-inch front and 17-inch rear alloy wheels with lower ground clearance. It misses out on fully adjustable suspension and features 200 mm travel, as per leaked brochure.
      2025 KTM 390 Adventure Launch Date
      For India, the multiple variants are not confirmed and there is a good probability of 390 Adventure R not launching here. All variants will be manufactured by Bajaj Auto in India. When launched, it will take on rivals like Royal Enfield Himalayan 450, Yezdi Adventure and Triumph Scrambler 400X among others.
      2025 KTM 390 Adventure
      What to expect?
      Design-wise, 2025 KTM 390 Adventure looks a lot sleeker, yet substantial than the current model. Taller windscreen, sharper body panels and edgier design elements contribute to that effect. We can expect new instrumentation and a host of electronic rider aids as part of the package.
      Where powertrains are concerned, it will pack the same 399cc DOHC 4V liquid-cooled single-cylinder motor from 390 Duke. However, it might be tuned differently to suit ADV character. Around 45 bhp and 40 Nm is expected along with ride-by-wire, slipper clutch and 6-speed gearbox. Price will be revealed at launch. More

      While current model is more of a tourer, upcoming 390 Adventure is spawning a more off-road worthy variant. Called 390 Adventure R, it will feature fully adjustable suspension (compression and rebound) with 230 mm travel. Front wheel will be 21-inches and rear wheel will be 18-inches with higher ground clearance.

      Also, it has to be noted that only the 390 Adventure R will get wire-spoke wheels. The other variant is 390 Adventure X that features 19-inch front and 17-inch rear alloy wheels with lower ground clearance. It misses out on fully adjustable suspension and features 200 mm travel, as per leaked brochure.
      For India, the multiple variants are not confirmed and there is a good probability of 390 Adventure R not launching here. All variants will be manufactured by Bajaj Auto in India. When launched, it will take on rivals like Royal Enfield Himalayan 450, Yezdi Adventure and Triumph Scrambler 400X among others.

      What to expect?
      Design-wise, 2025 KTM 390 Adventure looks a lot sleeker, yet substantial than the current model. Taller windscreen, sharper body panels and edgier design elements contribute to that effect. We can expect new instrumentation and a host of electronic rider aids as part of the package.
      Where powertrains are concerned, it will pack the same 399cc DOHC 4V liquid-cooled single-cylinder motor from 390 Duke. However, it might be tuned differently to suit ADV character. Around 45 bhp and 40 Nm is expected along with ride-by-wire, slipper clutch and 6-speed gearbox. Price will be revealed at launch. More
