The KTM RC390 is far more than just a beginner bike and the more time I spend with it, the more I love it! Check it out for yourself by connecting with the awesome team at Macleans Sports here: www.macleanssports.com

It's great a bike the older rc 390 wasn't as comfortable and better quality as this new one. Surprisingly it's good for daily commute. I hope it comes with the new 398 cc engine and tech from the new 390 duke this year

I hope so too. I've been holding out on buying one hoping they would bump up the displacement.

Yeah the pics of rc390 test mule has been surfacing. Can't say anything now but let's hope they make the design as appealing as the one shown in the video

Cool KTM RC390 design here and the best I've seen of the bike so far IMO. Thanks for the review. I like the orange/black and the orange rims too. The headlight reminds me of the new Suzuki and Yamaha single center headlights of the 1980s sportbikes.

I have been riding Harley’s for 15yrs and looking to add a sport bike but not break the bank, would this be a good intro bike ?

@nathandoan8401 Ай бұрын

yeah, get some good gear if you don't have it already, and just note that it's super light compared to a big Harley

Hi Guys, I live in Wales [UK] Ex Mobile Crane Operator now 52 And Had to Retire to to Health. I have done all the 600/1000 S-Sports but NEED something Small/Light BUT Nice/Quick and Reliable to Ride. Does ANYONE KNOW how Reliable [IF NOT] Or ARE these Bikes are. Cheers Lee.

I think you should have mentioned that this bike is essentially a 390 Duke with posture and aero tweaks and how the 2025 version will be changed significantly, as it will get all the '24 Duke changes. All these European A2 compliant bikes have performance/weight limits set, so in essence, this bike is pushing that very envelope hard. Small weight reduction tweaks is where you'll get additional performance, like lighter battery and a 415 chain/sprocket conversion, perhaps an obvious option if you wish to track it. I like this generation as there is a massive amount of after-market options, but it sounds like the newer series benefits from chassis improvements. If you want that more, the '25 model for both the RC and the Adventure.

I think people understand that it shares an engine with a 390 Duke. I do think they're quite different bikes though, so when you say posture and aero tweaks, I say those are pieces that affect the character of the bike. Also where I film, in Canada, we don't have A2 license restrictions, so things are different here. But I hear what you're saying. I'm looking forward to seeing the next generation when it arrives as well. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Hi Peter, is it true that this bike shares the same engine as the Bajaj 400?

@PeterLoweOne 3 ай бұрын

Maybe? I'm not familiar with that bike as they don't sell them here in Canada.

@shawnh4528 2 ай бұрын

Nah, KTM originally designs the engine which Bajaj manufactures and shares it with its bikes. It shares this same engine with Bajaj under cross Badging

I loved the design of the 1st gen RC 200. I had it for 8 years and wanted to buy the next gen RC 390. However, they released this ugly front design, so I went for a Suzuki instead...
