I'm 60 years old. This is my first adventure bike that I bought the ktm 390 adventure, 2022. Tomorrow is phenomenal. Unbelievable, it's got the power for the highways for the roads track control. All of that that bike ill awesome best bike I've ever had it, does it all , I've ran mine up over a 102 miles an hour, and all I've done was change the pipe in the skid plate. I've been places where I thought I'm screwed. I'm stuck in the sand you gotta learn how to use that traction control, not high. Rpms, very low rpms, put your legs out to steady yourself and it'll push you right out. It's saved me 5 times in different situations. And I ride alone out in the Mojave desert in Arizona, best bike ever. The price unbelievable with all the extras and electronics.You can't beat it

Had a 2023 RC390 and it was a fantastic machine. I had gotten it to see if it lived up to the hype, had it for a year and traded it in for a Z900RS Cafe. The 390 engine is very peppy but also forgiving. The rider aids, six axis IMU, abs, and traction control, are an awesome suite on such an entry level machine. I've been riding for 20 years and I never rode such a small displacement bike but I'll tell from experience, this bike or any KTM 390 offers phenomenal performance. Easily get to highway speed for light commuting, light and flickable for city riding and in this bike's case you see a trail you can hit it with ease.

I recently did a test ride on a 390 Duke. It's a very impressive motorcycle. It's a perfect urban ride and the very well balanced and refined single is more than capable of extended highway use.

This review captured my attention. Having watched hundreds of m/c reviews, I've never before been interested in a KTM. This machine looks to be fun, practical and high value! Thank you.

And I ride a 100 miles a day, 3 days out of the week highways, streets dirt roads off-road through washes, wherever the bike will do it all I've even put knobbies on it. And wrote it 3 months in the dirt, learn how to set up the dampening. The rebound air pressure I have an air pump bite. Carry with me. So when I'm in the dirt, I lower the air pressure in the front and the rear. When I'm done, I'll take a break. Plug in the pump pump up the tires back up street pressure and i'm gone

Very agile, responsive. It's unbelievable if you've never ridden an adventure bike. You're missing out on something awesome. I've had a street bike. I've had a dirt bike this bike beat some both. I had a Yamaha B star 650. It was AV twin, and I could only get it up to 96 miles an hour. And I had a Yamaha jet kit in it and short stack vansenheim pipes, the 390. We'll go right past that Yamaha V star 650 that I had unbelievable. It's got the power and it just keeps climbing and climbing

Nice review of the KTM. Faster isn't always necessary on public roads, and I was able to keep up and even pass traffic on my prior Ninja 250Rs, reaching up to 100 mph+ on that small engine, high revving bike. Only thing it wasn't great at was going up steep hills, as it levels out in speed instead of being able to increase rapidly like my Ninja 650. How is changing the tires on this bike with the spokes? Is this a tubeless or tube interior tire?

Nice bike....the main issue I am hearing from riders and bike shops with KTM is parts availability....it's very frustrating when you are missing out on weeks of great riding weather because the parts you need to fix your bike are backordered or in shipping for weeks.

Let's meet again the sixty year old man l o l.I have a question for you ,??? , On the three ninety adventure windshield, where can I find one that is blacked out completely black , I've looked I've researched. I can't find one people told me paint it. Do this do that? No I want one. That's completely black for the 390. They make 'em for the other bigger adventure bikes. But I want one for the 390 completely black shiny. If you know where I can get one, please let me know. My name is rodney and I live in arizona

My first on-road bike was a Honda TransAlp. People must have agreed with me in thinking it was a bit heavy for off-road and not as performant for the weight on-road. I'm interested to see how the RE 452 and CFMoto 450 do in Canada. The 390 seems to be quite a global motorcycle being sold on every continent I think. A lot af Asian countries would see it as a top model.

I have one and it's indeed a good bike overall, but - just after 600 km of mileage, and staying about a week not riding, it just didn't start anymore. The screen turned on but instead of starting the engine, all I got was click-click sound. Battery voltage on the screen showed 11.6 voltages. Charged the battery for ca 1 hour, after which the screen showed it to be 12.3 voltages if I remember correctly, after which it started. Seems to be very stringent about the battery, and after this event I lost all confidence in the bike, especially having had only Japanese bikes, old and new, for the last 20 years, all being exceptionally reliable and trustworthy. Starting a bike should be like a top priority mechanism to get right, especially for an adventure motorcycle.

I totally agree. With the exception of people who want all out speed as a key piece of their motorcycle. This would be a bike I'd be perfectly happy with though!
