Pros and Cons in comparison

KTM 390 Duke 2020

KTM 390 Duke 2020

The KTM 390 Duke is a "real" Duke. The trademark: Extremely agile handling that makes for powerful riding fun. The flyweight 390 can be precisely controlled with its narrow waist and wide handlebars and feels most at home in tight corners. Especially with the Supermoto mode, it is a fun machine without equal. Unfortunately, only the brakes and suspension of the 390 cannot maintain the same, very high performance level as on the 125 Duke or 890 Duke. They feel a bit spongy and not optimally tuned, especially when the rider weighs in a bit more. The equipment is otherwise tip-top, especially when you consider the price of the 390 Duke. In terms of riding pleasure/euros, it outperforms most, including its Duke sisters.

Typical Duke ergonomics that are also suitable for taller riders

Sporty engine with great handling

Modern TFT display with smartphone connectivity

Supermoto mode is a pleasure

KTM 125 Duke 2020

If you want an aggressive design, sporty and good handling as well as higher performance, especially in the upper rev range, you can't go wrong with the Duke. The attention to detail, for example in the form of the LED turn signals or the elaborate and multifunctional TFT display, are a KTM trademark. The only drawback is that it lacks a little power in the lower rev range.

Good chassis

LED indicators and headlights
