Pros Cons of KTM 390 Adventure

Pros

  • Lightweight & easy to handle
  • Comfortable ergonomics
  • Value-friendly

Cons

  • Not a dedicated off-roader
  • Low on fuel efficiency
  • Lacks adjustable suspension

Verdict

The long-travel suspension of the KTM 390 Adventure is built to handle all kinds of terrain, and the motor is punchy enough to keep even experienced riders entertained. At ₹ 2.99 lakh (ex-showroom), the KTM 390 Adventure may seem a little pricey, but if you consider the superb off-road capability, coupled with the features and electronics package, there's no doubt that there's nothing quite like it yet, at that price point.

The Kawasaki Ninja 1000SX remains one of the most accessible litre-class full-faired offerings on sale and the in-line four-pot motor makes for a highly likeable highway companion. Powered by a 1,043 cc liquid-cooled, four-pot motor that develops 140 bhp at 10,000 rpm and 111 Nm of peak torque at 8,000 rpm, the bike has a lot of electronic aids including ABS, cruise control, three-level traction control, Kawasaki Cornering Management function, quickshifter and more.
