KTM 390 Adventure

The local debut of the KTM 390 Adventure is long-awaited. First, it was said to arrive in mid-year, then pushed to year’s end, but the touring machine hasn’t arrived yet. The 390 Adventure is powered by a 373 cc single-cylinder, DOHC, liquid-cooled, four-valve engine fed by EFI making a maximum power of 43 hp and peak torque of 37 Nm. Power is sent to the wheels through a six-speed transmission with PASC mechanical anti-slip clutch and chain final drive. Braking is taken care of by a Bybre radial-mount four-piston calliper and front 320 mm brake disc and single-piston calliper on the 230 mm diameter rear disc. Suspension, on the other hand, benefits from a 43 mm diameter WP Apex upside-down fork and a WP Apex monoshock at the back. Part of its standard equipment kit is a Bosch 9.1MP two-channel ABS with off-road and cornering ABS mode that disables ABS at the rear wheel. It weighs 158 kg, has a seat height of 855 mm, and carries a 14.5-litre fuel tank.
