In this week's episode of First Ride, Chase is revving up the all-new 2024 KTM 390 Duke, a bike that's been nearly entirely revamped to deliver more excitement on two wheels. With a heart that beats stronger than ever, thanks to its enlarged 399cc engine pushing out 44 bhp, and a frame that's been fine-tuned for precision, this Duke is ready to dominate the streets. But it's not just about raw power; it's packed with cutting-edge tech, including adjustable suspension, a Bluetooth-enabled color dash, and cornering traction control, all designed to keep you safe and in control. Whether you're navigating tight city streets or opening up on the open road, the 390 Duke promises a ride that's as exhilarating as it is refined. So, helmet on, and let's see if this Duke lives up to its royal lineage.

I have a 2019 duke 390 and I have put over 30k miles on it. Ive done road trips, daily commutes, run errands, and pretty much anything else you can think of. I'll never sell the bike. If the new one is even better then I'd recommend it for anyone wanting a good little bike.
@@leeinwis paid me to put 30,000 miles on a bike? Sure, that makes sense.
I bought a 2018 with 800 miles a couple years ago. It's so fun.
@roblewis7186 Glad to see another high mileage 390. It gives me hope mine won’t die anytime soon. I’ve racked up 12K miles in 1 year.
@user-rf8xp4fe6h yeah it's been a great bike. You should be fine. The only problems I have had was a rear wheel bearing needed to be replaced, and the stator had an issue with the bolts backing out. Since then, no problems.
Bruh I got a 17. The official bike of Goonies
Thanks for the review. I had the previous generation 390 Duke and folks didn't believe me that it was completely fine on the highway and an absolute blast to ride around town. It's one of two bikes that I've felt terrible about selling.
Bi-directional Quick shifter has been standard on the 390 since 2021 model
Unfortunately not on the US models (extra charge option).
@@richardwarsinske7064The hardware is there, but there is a software lock.
Bro you just convinced me ..this will be my.first bike..the way you explained it and had fun with it is just amazing..thank you 😅
OC: Why does it have to look so good! I dont even like orange 😂
The blue looks really good too
@@leeinwis I like the design. If you can see past that color, which can be easily changed. It's a cool looking bike.
Get one in Atlantic blue then,I am cause I don't care for all the orange plus the actual riders seat on the orange is orange too,I prefer it to be black like the 2024 blue one.
@@kennywheelus6857 I just glossblacked the orange under the seat of my blueduke, slapped on the Remus black pipe, deleted rear footpegs, looks sharp😁.
@@jonomasonILoveU ,ok awesome, 😎yes sir I agree it does look sharp,I can't wait to get mine in another few weeks,I'm gonna spray a protective clear coat on mine an get a after market radiator protector from bagoros an hand protector an lever protection an change levers to adjustable ones an do a tail tidy an get leg an crash protection additionally too,just to help better protect my bike as much as possible.
just bought a 2023 KTM 390 Adventure and I'm loving every second of it. 101 miles so far and 499 to go with the break in period, then on to 10,000RPM here we come.
It's a fun bike. I'm not even at 100 on mine yet but I've added a bunch of stuff over the winter.
@@Ntmoffi That’s awesome! Hopefully you’ll be able to enjoy it with the upcoming warm weather.
Love my Duke 390, it's a lot of fun. Went for a ride today in Canada at 7C with basically a snow suit on. 😂🧡
I've had one since 2020 but the 690 smc is calling my name 😅
Just got the blue model, comes with QS ready to ride, I had the black Remus pipe fitted, removed the rear fpegs, fitted the barend mirrors, added the carbon fly screen and ordered a powerparts tank pad. Looks sharp, and the QS is butter smooth. I love kTm😁.
How is the quick shifter? I have seen some comments about the qs beeing not so good in 1. 2. and 3. gear?
@@trndersodd7052 obviously not used in 1st but good to go from 3rd up
With the qs how much money did You pay for the byke ?
@@sergiorivera4235 $9:550.NZD
@@sergiorivera4235 $9500NZD,traded 2022 390Duke for $4.5k with 10.000km.
Bought this bike 2 years for my first bike, loved it and had no issues with it, since upgraded to a mt-07 but loved the 390
Isn't the Yamaha mt-07 is the same fun bike like the Ktm Duke 390 only faster? Or are there differences? 😮
Motorcycle season is here baby!
Yet I'm over here with heavy rain and snow in the forecast. I'm still in the winter part of Spring. 😢
It was sub zero and snowing a couple days ago. My bike and my fun car are still in storage and the batteries are in my basement. I'm going insane. Soon.
@@AdamND701 I live in the same area as Chase. Both Georgia boys. Bought my mt07 in Mall of Georgia, Buford. Rather than Roswell. But he's our local hero. 👍💯
Literally waited for this man 💯❣️
My first bike was a 2018 Duke 390. It is an incredible bike. It handles better than anything else I've had since and I miss it. I think a duke 790 is next for me.
That's too much power for you .
This was my first bike and the bike I use in my videos. 10/10 Would recommend for any new rides. Have had it for 4 months and I do not regret it one bit.
Welcome to the 390 Duke. The funnest little bike you'll ever ride.
Lovely review man!
I owned a 2019 Duke 390. The most fun motorcycle I’ve ever ridden. Got a 390 Adventure in trying to sell to go back to Duke 390.
Any reason why you are going back to the duke? Considering a 390 adventure as my first bike
@@MrDaoby Just better handling and more fun to ride.
Love this video made me really want to get this bike !!
The 390 got a bump in displacement from previous generations from I believe 373cc to now a 399cc. Won't make a whole ton of difference but it's cool. Had a 2023 and I miss it :(
Just bought my first bike! Vivid white r3 !
Looks fun!
My fav low CC bike for the moment is my second bike owned, the 2024 Honda - Grom 😃
That guy yelling at the sound check was funny.
I've seen dukes evolve throughout the years I literally just bought the GS8R and now I want to get rid of my 22 RC 390 right now and get the new duke to take its place.
Such a cute little motorcycle.
Will make any beginner happy!
Finally Duke 390 2024 first ride... I was waiting for this... 😁 Next 990 and 1390... I'll be waiting for it and2 Aprilia RS 457(superly early waiting).. 😁
Love from India, after all 390 is made in India for the world!
@@Blingbling820 No wonder you don't know stuff about motorcycles, the new 390 is the best quality it has ever been
@@Blingbling820 manufacturing defect , I can guarantee you those weren't Indian units
Only reason I didn't buy it and went for the CB300R
@@persi_sws all the 390 dukes are made in India they are doing an amazing job
Cheap labour but why the price a bit pricey
Ngl I’m getting this as my first bike
I daily commute in my city on my duke its amazing. And fun easy to split lanes and weave through traffic to get up to the front of the pack at the red lights
Love the review on the 390. I really hope if you get the opportunity you can review the 990.
I have this bike (and it has a quickshifter installed, you just have to pay $200 ish for the dealer to activate it in the software.) I love the bike. Great beginner bike. Its so much better than the competing bikes.
i've looked at this bike in person, pretty cool. heard it's great for tracks
Hey chase, cool videos as always. Can you please also review the 2022 RC200? I think it’s a great small sportbike also. Much appreciated 🙂
I’d be curious to know how the wind felt riding on the highway without a windscreen? Great content once again. Oh, and your first ride review of the CFMoto 450ss was a major deciding factor in me picking that as my first bike 👍
Fav low cC MT 03.
Love the review! Would also like to see the new Kawasaki Z500. Hopefully soon!!
I think it is awesome that 2024 390 gets quickshifter too
You should review the 2024 husqvarna svartpilen
Buuuu j/k
Full on fun.
Disagree about not a beginner bike. It was my first besides mopeds 20 years ago. I jumped on it and was great. Just have to respect it and realize it can wheelie you over.
i been thinking about getting this or the 2024 ktm 250 coming out, hoping to see the 250 vid next :)
I can't wait for the RC 390 with this updated engine.
Same btw i guess they are going with the old RC design with the spyshots
Im a duke guy but that would look so much better with a black seat
Great little bike. I'm excited for the Aprilia RS457 and the CFmoto 450MT (Ibex) reviews. Both of those will be bangers for this class of bike.
commie lover
OC. We had the first gen 390 back in India. Was even more raw and mad than the current ones.
But I think I like the NK for that 270° crank.
Having said that, I do a have a soft spot for the 390 and I'm keen to see how she has evolved. Most say she is more refined but still retains that character.
Can’t wait to see you ride the ninja 500
Part of me misses the nimbleness of my old MT-03. It was a hoot around town and twisty roads. A small cc bike will find its way back into the garage cause if how fun they are.
I had a 2017 duke 390 after having a year away from motorbikes coming from a vfr800 wanted a bike that was a pure toy to play about on. Was very fun and faster than you think.
I been thinking of a 2003 vfr800 I see them with about 25k what u think is a better first bike the 800 or the 390
Definitely the 390. @@obeii1805
@@obeii1805 the 390 obviously
@@niksn022 😂😂
As the resident 390 duke guy...... 6:90 40 to 80.... Nice
Skipping and hopping to the nice scooter, now that was a nice touch. The looks are kind of polarising to me though it is unique but one thing I have always not liked and don't like about the 390 is how the technology makes it excessively expensive. Never the less what a fun review. I enjoyed it a lot , thank you.
Do you have a date for trying out the 801? I’m not getting it until June so would be nice to see you ride it before that
My first bike was f4i then a 600rr. Now I ride a duke 390. Excellent if you want to ride daily an have a family.
Watching your other video on the older model (and Gixxerbrah's review) was a lot of the reason I got a 23' Duke. They are substantially marked down since new model came out
Definitely an improvement but considering the oversupply of brand new 2023 models that dealers can’t get rid of for 6k otd by me. I’d save the 2k right now
OC. Sounds really awesome. Haven't gotten my license yet, but what would be better? This or the CF Moto 450SRS?
Can you review V strom 650 XT? I cant find if you did ride it only saw 800de
Idk about the 2024, but something I found kind of comical about my 2023 KTM 390 Duke is the horn button is also backlit. You can't see it while riding, but it's backlit. Nice touch by KTM, even if it is a bit goofy.
8:03 fam, the riding position looks dorky AF . 🤣
I think for new riders KTM models are really good. I am even considering buying a duke 200 soon for fun.
OC: That orange seat is hideous. Especially bc it’s a different shade than the bike and then the black pillion makes it look even worse! 401 Vitpilen is definitely the way to go.
Also off topic, would love to see a review of a Honda CB650r. Especially if you can get a hold of a 24 E-Clutch model when available.
sure if you wanna be a cringe hipster loser with a low power bike.
Vitpillen 801 is gonna be a monster
Yo Chase, you are spot on with your review. I had a triumph speed triple 955cc, a triumph 675r Daytona, then a 2007 ktm 990 super duke. I’m 58 and wanted something with the same ability but lighter. I got that same orange 390 your riding and yes it checks all the boxes. I do miss bigger tire patch, but then you would loose the agility etc. I passed on a $2000 discount on the 2023 model because the 2024 was south a step up. Plus the quick shifter on this one is suppose to be really good. I might try the new 990 duke, it’s much lighter now too. Although I’m sure this 390 is pretty unique in what it offers. It looks so expensive for $6299
Excited to see a review of the 2024 790 adventure by KTM if you choose to do one. Ive never thought of buying a new bike but that would be the one
This first ride at 2x playback speed is epic.
Would be nice if you mentioned the price in the Purchase or Pass section of these videos (unless you did and I missed it).
How's the vibrations below 5k rpm?
I know this is off topic, but I'm curious if you have any info as to when the 24 99p Duke would become available here in the US?
So they made the '24 RC390, but it doesn't get any of the new stuff, is that correct? I didn't think they were making it, and then there it is.
Do A Video On The Venom x22r MAX
I generally try out the modes once or twice and then set it and forget it when it comes to these types of features on my bikes.
I’m looking to get a 2024 390 duke but i don’t know which color to go for, i don’t really like the orange that much and the blue has a weird color design with dark blue and light blue, it would’ve been better if it was all dark blue like how the orange one is all orange
Chase what naked bike should I get for a beginner ?
Have you consider trying Bajaj Dominar 400UG? Coz it has the same engine as Duke 390.
Please please PLEASE do the 2024 1390 SDR Evo
I might get a 2024 svarpillon same engine as the duke and capable of light off-roading 🤔
Member squad
can you do clc 450 pls?
Hi, i am 6' tall 90kg (200lbs) am i too tall and heavy for this bike or ok, i have had a ride on a KTM 390 and it vibrated so bad up through the foot pegs, does this model vibrate?
Its comes with quick shifter as well.its Very popular here in india. Ktm's smal bikes are assembled in india.
Bro also try the Triumph Speed 400 and Scrambler 400
They say this new KTM has the same engine from the Triumph Speed 400, since Triumph signed a deal with Bajaj (Indian company) for the production of their bikes. Similarly, Bajaj owns 49% or 50% shares in KTM's parent motorcycle brand Pierer motorcycles, so I believe that Bajaj uses the same engine from the Triumph in KTM, a 398.6cc engine.
It could be a different engine but considering all the other factors i presume that its easy use the same engine
❤ this little KTM is the next big thing in the Indian market. People are going GA GA over this.
OC: I don't mind not having ride modes on the nk450. the Traction control is good enough.
Just picked up the rc390 from mountain
No quick-shifter? Does KTM not have the demo mode feature for this model? Seems odd that track mode and launch control would be included over the QS (that's standard on the Husqvarna 401's). KTM's website provided no answers for these questions or even the retail price for this particular model but their demo tour will be in my area in a couple of weeks and I should be able to get my questions answered there. IMO all the extra electronic features, premium tires, and much better resale value makes the 390 Duke a better value than the 450NK too!
Chase could you do a review on the Honda cb500x
It does have a quickshifter! But costs extra
If you had to pick one bike cfmoto 450nk or the duke 390
Please do a KTM 125 Duke review.
It has the quickshifter as well as auto blipper here in India..
I'm about your height, but I'm 225 lbs w/o rider gear. Would my size hinder the bike's performance?
It has ride modes cause india this is a supersport basiically for them and its a huge seller
The brake lever thing is weird. I only always use two finger on it and have no issues. And I didn’t adjust it at all from the dealer.
20:48 Just a note, a quick shifter is an option on that bike. I believe the shift sensor is already there so it only needs the software turned on by the dealer.
yup atleast the 23s do for sure why would they get rid of it
@@Gexx-dt3cohi I own this bike , Quick shifter is enabled
Unfortunately that orange just doesn't do it for me. Bike seems fun though
The orange seat is a nice touch though! I wish other companies did that like Yamaha blue
Does one really need ride modes on a 400cc thumper with 44HP? I rather have them add a cruise control option instead.
Still ofnt understand why they don't throw the 690 in this thing. That's enough power to learn with then keep riding for a while longer. I bought the 390 Duke when it got its first big makeover in 2017 I think, it was awesome but I was so over the power right away. Note to mention is I did own bigger bikes before the Duke tho.
The blue coler one is bater
Dude, your boots on the video, please brands and model?
20:18 it has quick shifter
watch out for vibes causing phone camera to break while mounted on the bars
i think im starting to see why people used to mock ktms for garden tools and such
