Ktm adventure 390 x on road price

The new-for-2020 KTM 390 Adventure is a lot of bike for the money, with off-road ready WP suspension, traction control, cornering ABS and a spunky single-cylinder engine. Photos by Mark Tuttle. “Who woulda thunk it,” as my dad would say. A KTM adventure bike that costs less and makes more power than a Kawasaki KLR650, has fuel injection, electronic rider aids and weighs nearly 50 fewer pounds to boot? What mythical beast is this? It’s the 2020 KTM 390 Adventure, and it’s no myth. In fact I’ve spent the last few days on one, cruising the urban streets, farm roads and mountain highways near my home (taking a rain check on the hard core off-road stuff in these unusual times — see our “To Ride, or Not to Ride…?” editorial With a base price of just $6,199, the new 390 Adventure is a lot of bike for the money, with an impressive list of standard features that make it a serious threat to value-oriented Japanese competitors like the Honda CB500X and Kawasaki Versys-X 300, as well as BMW’s G 310 GS. Adjustable front and rear WP suspension, a full-color TFT display, lean-angle sensitive traction control and Bosch 2-channel cornering ABS are all standard, with a quickshifter offered as an option. Advertisement Five-inch TFT display can be hard to read at a glance, but contains lots of useful info including fuel consumption data and range to empty. Powering the 390 Adventure is the same 373cc, 4-valve, DOHC, liquid-cooled single used in the popular RC 390 and 390 Duke sport bikes, whi...

At Rs 2.8 lakh, ex-showroom, the X-variant of the KTM 390 Adventure is the most affordable sub 400cc ADV out there. It is about Rs 65,000 cheaper than the standard bike and that’s been made possible by removing some of the kit from the standard bike. KTM 390 Adventure-X: What’s different? The bits of equipment that you lose includes the TFT display with Bluetooth connectivity, quickshifter, traction control and the Ride modes. The bike also doesn’t get the Metzeler Tourance tyres and makes do with the MRF Mogrip Meteor tyres that you get on the KTM 250 Adventure. Do these omissions dilute the capabilities of the KTM 390 Adventure? As it turns out, it wasn’t entirely the case. KTM 390 Adventure-X: what’s it like to ride Like the low seat 390 ADV V, the 390 ADV X gets the WP Apex big piston fork instead of the WP Apex Open cartridge fork. Barring these omissions, the X has the same chassis and engine as the standard bike, so in terms of pure performance and ride quality, there’s no difference between the two bikes.The handling isn’t too dissimilar, except for the fact that the MRF’s aren’t as grippy or confidence inspiring as the Metzelers on the other variants of the 390 ADV. That statement holds true off-road as well. That said, the MRFs are decent enough and one can always fit the Metzelers once the MRF’s are worn out. As for the removal of traction control and cornering ABS, experienced hands may not miss these safety nets. However, our road conditions aren’t ideal and t...
