KTM<\/a> 390 DUKE, the spotlight shines especially on the optimized single-cylinder LC4c engine. It impresses with an increased displacement of 399 cubic centimeters, an increase on the 373 cubic centimeters in the previous model. This increase results from an extension of the stroke from 60 to 64 millimeters, while the bore remains constant at 89 millimeters. The innovations result in a marginally increased peak power of 45 hp, one hp more than in the previous model. Particularly noteworthy is the fact that this peak power is reached at 8,500 rpm, 500 rpm earlier than before. Despite the increased power, the total weight remains at 165 kilograms ready to ride, which means that the motorcycle continues to be A2-approved. In terms of torque, an increase of two Newton meters is evident, with maximum torque of 39 Nm now reached at 7,000 rpm. The maximum speed is capped at 10,500 rpm. These technical optimizations underscore the 390 DUKE’s claim to set new standards in the mid-range segment not only in terms of design and technology, but also in terms of performance.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n
