KTM 390 Adventure review, road test

After our first experience with the 390 Adventure, we said we would hold off on giving our final verdict until we get to spend hundreds of kilometres with it on the open road. Well, we finally did, and the bike definitely impresses. It’s more than what you would ever need on our highways, it’s practical enough to commute on, and is off-road-ready enough to take on most of the trails you would throw at it. And then there’s the fact that it’s got the tech you wouldn’t find on most motorcycles three times its price. That being said, we miss having the international-spec adjustable fork, and the ergonomics and quickshifter could be reworked as well. However, none of these factors are even remotely close to being deal breakers when you look at the mouth-watering Rs 2.99 lakh price tag (ex-showroom Delhi).
