KTM India recently launched its new and affordable ADV series in the Indian market, the 390 Adventure. The 2025 KTM 390 Adventure was showcased to the public internationally at EICMA 2024 and then made its debut on Indian soil at the India Bike Week 2024. The bikemaker has designed for the 390 Adventure with an intent of off-roading as well as long-distance touring. Here's what makes the two-wheeler special:

1 Engine 

At the core of the new KTM 390 Adventure lies an upgraded 399cc LC4C engine delivering a robust 45.5 bhp and 39 Nm of torque. This improved power-to-weight ratio guarantees smooth acceleration and the ability to conquer steep inclines with ease. The bike is equipped with a Bosch Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) system that enhances fuel efficiency and throttle responsiveness making it a dependable partner for highway travel and off-road adventures.

2 Chassis

The 2025 KTM 390 Adventure features a split-trellis frame that improves weight distribution and stability. This chassis, paired with a bolt-on sub-frame, enhances handling on various terrains. The ergonomics are also enhanced, providing riders with better comfort during extended trips. With a ground clearance of 237 mm and a balanced design, this bike is ready for any adventure.

3 Spoked wheels

For the first time in the sub-500cc adventure segment, the KTM 390 Adventure boasts a 21-inch front wheel and a 17-inch rear wire spoke wheel on the S variant and a 19-inch alloy on the front with 17-inch alloy at the rear with the X variant. The wire spoke wheel upgrade greatly enhances off-road capabilities providing improved traction and control on challenging trails. They add durability, enabling riders to navigate rocky and uneven terrain with confidence and safety.

4 Suspension

Fitted with open-cartridge forks offering 200 mm travel in the front and a mono-shock with 205 mm travel at the rear the 2025 KTM 390 Adventure allows complete adjustability for compression, rebound damping, and preload. This capability lets riders fine-tune their suspension for various riding scenarios, from smooth highways to rugged trails, ensuring optimal comfort and control.
