The 390 Duke is priced at<strong> Rs 1.8 lakh, ex-showroom Delhi,<\/strong> which makes it significantly cheaper than the Kawasaki Ninja 300 and almost on par with Honda&#8217;s CBR250R. The KTM 390 Duke is the company&#8217;s second KTM offering in the Indian market from the Bajaj-KTM partnership.<\/p>\n<p>Duke 390 uses the same parts including the chassis, suspension and the wheels as the KTM 200 Duke, but an all-new engine means it is of a higher capacity, and also way more powerful now. The 390 Duke is powered by a 373.2cc, single-cylinder, 4-stroke, liquid-cooled motor and develops a healthy 43bhp and 35Nm of torque, and is coupled to a six-speed gearbox. The bike can reach 0-100kmph under 6 seconds and achieve a top speed of <strong>over 160kmph.<\/strong> You can expect this bike to return an overall fuel efficiency of around <strong>22-25km\/ltr.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The 390 Duke can also be distinguished by its orange frame and new <strong>Metzeler rubber<\/strong>. Other changes include revised ratios for the gearbox; the 390 employs relatively taller gearing compared to the 200. This also means cruising at three digit speeds in 6th is a lot less hectic on the 390 Duke. \u00a0It hosts many features like ABS, Metzeler tyres, aluminium swing arm, and aluminium alloy wheels. The bike also features all-digital instrument cluster like the 200 Duke and the ABS which is standard on the bike can be switched off via a switch.<\/p>\n<p>The KTM Duke 390 will be sold and serviced exclusively through <strong>71 KTM showroom<\/strong>s and service centres, which are managed by Bajaj Auto. KTM will also launch a faired version of the motorcycle in 2014, albeit with a higher price tag.<\/p>\n<p><strong>KTM Duke 390 price in India Rs1.8 lakh<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bajaj Auto and KTM have finally launched the much-awaited 390 Duke in India.
