2024 KTM 390 Adventure spied again

KTM is all set to launch the second generation of the 2024 390 Adventure in India and it has been spotted testing multiple times. The new bike is entirely new, which means it gets new styling, a trellis frame, a sub-frame, a swingarm, and a single-piece seat. The front has a vertically stacked dual projector LED headlight along with a beak-like fender, a taller windscreen, and new LED turn indicators. The tail section also looks sleeker. Looks like the bike will get adjustable inverted forks with a longer wheelbase and an offset monoshock. This variant will likely get 19-inch front and 17-inch rear spoke wheels wrapped in Metzeler Tourance tyres. The 398.63cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine and the TFT console look like they’re carried from the new KTM 390 Duke. Here’s how much could be priced.
