2024 KTM 390 Duke debuts with bigger engine, new styling, and more tech

KUALA LUMPUR: The Austrian bike maker KTM has finally pulled the wraps of the highly awaited next-gen 390 Duke. In the latest form, the naked sport bike features a bigger engine, a completely refreshed design, and a pack of modern features.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • What powers the 2024 KTM 390 Duke?

    The 2024 KTM 390 Duke is powered by a new LC4c 398.7cc, liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine, which kicks out a maximum power of 44.86 PS and a peak torque of 39 Nm.
  • What new features are available with the new KTM 390 Duke?

    The new KTM 390 Duke gets the segment-first launch control system, a new 5-inch TFT instrument cluster, three riding modes, cornering ABS with SuperMoto mode, and more.
  • Let’s talk about the mechanical setup first where the biggest change lies. The previous 373 cc displacement engine is replaced by a new LC4c 398.7cc, liquid-cooled single-cylinder unit which complies with Euro 5.2 regulations. The revamp engine kicks out a maximum power of 44.86 PS and a peak torque of 39 Nm i.e. 1.36 PS and 2 Nm more than the predecessor.

    The new engine comes mated to a 6-speed gearbox, three riding modes (Street, Track, and Rain), and the segment-first launch control system.

    The updated KTM 390 Duke also benefits from a new steel trellis frame, a new die-cast aluminium subframe, and a curved cast swingarm. The entirely new design of the bike looks sportier and more aggressive with sharp angles, a redesigned LED headlight mated to split DRLs, a new fuel tank, sharper tank extensions, and a split seat configuration.
