The Wait Is Finally Over! KTM Reveals Launch Timeline For The 390 Adventure

KTM India officially announces the launch of the 390 Adventure in 2019

One more year, and KTM’s most anticipated motorcycle, the 390 Adventure is going to be here! The Austrian manufacturer says it would draw its lineage from the brand’s rally-racing history and their flagship adventure tourer, the 1290 Super Adventure. Expect the design language to bear resemblance to the 790 Adventure.

KTM also says that it will be positioned in the brand’s Adventure range, along with the streetfighter Duke range and supersport RC series. Expect a highly competitive price tag for the 390 Adventure to rival bikes like the BMW G 310 GS, Royal Enfield Himalayan, and Kawasaki Versys-X 300. If KTM expects to launch the bike in India in 2019, then it is possible that the bikemaker will unveil the motorcycle at this year’s EICMA in November. Here’s the word straight from the horse’s mouth:
