As someone who’s currently looking for my first bike, it’s so exciting to see the 400ish CC class get so competitive!

Stop calling fun bikes beginner bikes... Ride what you like, dont care for opinions of others, you will like riding more that way

LOVED my 2019 390. This new one looks AWESOME. Great bike.

I've had a 2019 for 3 years and put 35k kilometres on it. They are great bikes, and this new one is gonna be even better

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="285">4:45</a> *correction* the 2024 390 Duke has Michelin Power 6’s which are yet to be announced by any media outlet or company. However the model label can be seen on the tyres in some of the press photos.

I sat on one yesterday at the Triumph garage in Saigon. It feels amazing! Loved the look of the RC390 as well but not the best bike for the roads here, I'll go for the Duke for sure! RC390 would be great fun on UK twistie roads when I go home.

I have the 21duke 390 and even though I think it looks good this new model looks awesome. Hope they don't overprice it as the previous models are the best value bike in Australia IMO.

Why does this look so much better than the 790/890? This legit looks like the super duke. In fact, the old version also looked better than the middle weights. So strange.

I love the looks and want to use it for every day riding but the previous generation was not comfy enough for my legs. I stand at 6.1 and I wish this time they did me the favor!!

I'm eager for the changes that I can only imagine will happen to the new svartpilen/vitpilen 401 as well. Time will tell!

I learned on a 390duke I also had a 790duke , harley vrod etc but ........this looks sooo good and fun!!

Still surprised that they didn't share the same engine with the CFMOTO 450NK/SS/SR. Initially I thought it would only make sense that they would share an engine but knowing how KTM prioritizes torque, I think a bored up single cylinder engine is the best for them.

I started on a first gen duke 390 and could not recommend this bike more for beginners. The years of quality upgrades have proven KTM deserves a slot in those typical 'best beginner bike' list - but in reality, it rarely actually gets mentioned. Crazy how dominate yamaha and kawa have on the us market when it comes to beginners.

Nice bike. Looks like good engineering has gone into it. Would make an excellent commuter. I think I want one!

Love your work! Please try to discover about the new Fireblade RR-R SP, R1 and ZX-10R for 2024?!

I wonder, my last bike was a 2010 KTM 690 Duke. I had an accident the same year (2010) and been driving cars ever since. All these years later and now at 37 years old I wonder if this 390 Duke would be a good way to get back into this.🤔

i was waiting for your video when they announced it yesterday

LOVE IT. Looks like a baby Super Duke. Also the tech? Awesome package. I love my GSXR 750 to death but these feature packed 400's are making me think about trading. These things are super reliable and IT HAS A SUPERMOTO MODE. And truth be told I've ridden all sorts of bikes and small displacements are so much more fun coz you're not always worried about breaking the speed limit, or finding big enough roads to feel that superbike power. Lower cc's the thrill factor out weighs the death factor perfectly. And I think the modern 400's have good power (enough to get some wheel spins, drifts, wheelies and good acceleration) and till this day one of the best handling bikes I've ever felt was a KTM RC125 a few years ago. That precise, lightweight ktm handling is a dream. You think it, it goes there. And you don't have to worry about being too rough on the throttle and losing the rear or high siding. Plus They teach you valuable skills that'll take you years to learn on big bikes.

That's one badass small bore small bores is where it's at . I think I need this bike

Stellar Video - thank you!

😮holy shit man,I thought I'd just fell in love with the 2023 model,but now that I've seen this version a few times,man I'm saving up for this bike,I completely love the new look of it

I have been watching your channel for a while now and I really enjoy it. I did have one question though is it a bad idea to buy the first year model of a new bike

old one looks good 🥲

I had the last gen.. in my opinion this is a major step back aesthetically

Great vid. Love this little pocket rocket.

I have still got the 2014 duke 390 ..❤

this will be my next bike :)

I hope they update the 890R also with the same treatment.

Watching from Philippines

If the 165kg wet weight figure is actually excluding fuel that would be rather odd. The "old" 390 was weighed at 160 kg wet including fuel and 149 kg dry. The "old old" 390 was even 10 kg less than that at 150 / 139 kg wet / dry but the missing ABS might be one of the major reasons there.

OMW...this looks very on point...!!!

Looks good but I prefer the old one

I love it I've never wanted a built so bad

I have the 2020 Duke 390 and I frick'n love this bike. The new one looks like a really nice overhaul as well. Cant wait for them to overhaul the 790 Duke with the new display and switch gear since that is the logical next bike for me after I have a few more km's in the saddle on the 390.

I wonder what parts of this bike will fit my 2019 390 duke

I need one in black hopefully next year.

i still ride the 2014 Duke 390 i am thinking of simply upgrading the disc,wheels, suspension and the new brake callipers.

KTM should have branded it the 400 Duke which would help with sales and give it a distinct recognition.

Now I’m excited for the husky 401 to be updated

I've got the 1290 but I still want one!

I think this will please a lot of Indian riders with the engine and bar work. There must be a lot of feedback from Asia.

I wonder if they will incorporate similar changes on the RC390 as well since they got an all new bodywork just last year in 2022.

Looks so good! But the weight...wrong way! Maybe ditch the cat will do the trick...

New mirrors,great

This looks nice

No reviews seems to mention that there are options for 2 seat heights actually... One is standard for 820mm another is you can get 800mm but I'm not sure how that will work... Check ktm official spec sheet

I run michelin road 6's on my duke 390 and they're great for longevity.

Hoping these updates makes it up to the 790 duke

Quite a few of the shots of the new Duke shows what looks like the RC390 silencer, is that an option? I own a 22 model 390 and have to say good job KTM! Very desirable.

Any news on the 2014 1290 super duke GT .?

I really like the 390 “juke”😆

Esthetic-wise, the biggest change is the relocation of the silencer. I don't like big silencers on the side of a motorcycle. I therefore welcome this approach of placing the silencer underneath the swingarm instead.

Would you rate this better than the new svartpilen ? I’m looking to order one

Is there a video of a head-to-head mash-up of the Triumph Speed 400 with the KTM Duke 390? Will be interesting to see how Bajaj (which now manufactures both these bikes, probably in the same factory at Chakan) has chosen to differentiate the two - especially negotiating with the Triumph bosses to ensure significant differences and thus, different customer segments for the two bikes.

CF Moto enters the room

All round great updates to an already excellent hooligan tool!

I wish they’d make a 690 version! That would be a riot😁

I have the duke 390 2018, I will defiantly sell mine and buy the new one when it arrives in greece

I have 2018 ktm 390,can I change the muffler and pipes to the new version of muffler and pipes of 2024 ktm 390?…

Did the clearance of the bike change?

Can you share a link to the crash bar kit please??? I just bought a 2024 390 duke and would like to order a kit.

Is it only launched in the European market??

The CF Moto 450NK will be a strong competitor also, and it's closer to it than the Triumph.

Thinking of changing my 1200 speed twin for a smaller lighter bike , any thoughts, reason I’m 75 in the coming April 😊ps tried the triumph 400’s not keen

any update on cooling system during hot days 😂😂😂

Maybe updated 390 adv soon to compete with the himi 450?

one thng u forgot to mention fr this bike u cn also opt for 800 MM seat

Does this bike comes with traction control?

The last one has a metal fuel tank. No cover.

Personally the blue would be more for me I love KTM orange but it’s a little over the top for my personal tastes

Can begginers use this? Since I fo want to upgrade to higher cc

tyre sizes? nowhere seen, maybe 120/70-17 and 160/60-17

Curious how it will match up to the Z500... 🍻

Does it have traction control?

I would love to see a 390 SMC 🙈

Where is this model been made? Thanks!

Any rumors on a similarly updated 390 adventure?

So, being able to turn off the rear wheel abs is on my 22 bs6. It also has a metal fuel tank...

Soon gonna buy my first bike and its the prime choice for me and only been avoiding it because of seat height can't wait for test ride

Im. Buying I'm. These immediately

All that tech but no mention of cruise control?

Got mine but it easily overheats, is it normal?

150 something kg dry weight and 40bhp would be enough to propel it to 180 kmph + with a lighter rider of 70-75 kgs.

Guys i have a question, Yamaha r3 2023 or duke 390 2024 as my first bike?

gorgeuos bike ,this bike is famous here in the pholippines , i think this is worth for the bucks

Tell me what you want but only underside exhaust bikes are relevant

You forgot to mention both Triumph and the Dukes are manufactured by the same Indian manufacturer- Bajaj.

390 2024 Ground clearance ?

They cancelled their engine model that they put in cf Moto 450sr. It would be awesome if newest ktm 390 shares the same engine as cf Moto 450sr

bike looks too beefy on the top... when you skip leg day kinda way lol

Moro bob how is this a low to beginner bike Plenty capable 0-60 in under 5 seconds? Wonderful handling It’s the wise choice

Cant wait for the husqvarna version

I wish they offered a naked version of this naked bike.

Well so much for the 490 rumors..😢. Ktm if you read these, rc890s please!

I don't like to be that guy but damn is the design going downhill, the last one looked so shar it could cut through the fabric of speed time, and this, it's so bulbus and huge and unlike a Duke. The massive features the offset monoshock it reminds me of a versys

How much?

Its so funny when he said KTM 390 is a leaner friendly bike. In India we start with 100cc as our first bikes, the 390 here in India is an aspirational bike.

Since this is getting significant updates for 2024, is KTM also giving the Adventure 390 an update? I’d be more interested in that. :O

looks gr8 with engine barres fitted . i just know it is never cheep in the power parts catalog . i also wish i could trust the brand but after owning a husqvana 401 for 5 000 miles it had £35000 of repairs and that is not something i need to deal with out side a warranty .. its a BIG no thank you from me . also the sound of the ktm single is shocking rattling from day one .. no doubt this is made in India . the SDR 1299 I owned was a big old tractor with design faults.. sorry to say it but ktm and all there derivatives are a gamble

Upcoming rs440 Aprilia for the win
