The most important product this time is the 2017 KTM 390 Duke, carrying serious changes in its overall built and design. It grows heavier due to added equipment (BS4 compliant) and more powerful than the outgoing version. The motorcycle brings colored TFT display for instrument console, LED front headlights, ride by wire technology, large fuel tank and a modified rear half frame.
