  • The KTM 390 Duke is the top of the line street-naked from the cooperation between Bajaj Auto and KTM, the Austrian motorcycle company. It's produced in India for the world, in more or less one spec for the planet. From 2013 till today, it's had the same 373cc engine that produces tons of power and is a great highlight of the motorcycle. For the longest time, the 390 Duke has represented one of the highest performance motorcycles for the money. Over time, it's acquired a reputation for being capable, reliable, running hot and not very happy to calm down and go slow. KTM shares the chassis with the smaller siblings, the 250, 200 and 125 with minor changes. KTM creates the 250 and the 390 from the same engine platform. And the smaller engines are from a slightly different engine platform. Do remember that this is 10 years of the 390 Duke, and a new one is on the way... maybe very soon.

      Yep
      And especially the identity of these bikes by many people is the word "chappri"
      Mfers don't even know those are the 125s and 200s
      And if you even talk about a "ktm" with them they'll be saying just one word that is "chappri" without anything to bring on the table
      They don't wanna hear about the specs about the bike or anything
      All they do is "chappri"
      Pathetic....
