Ktm Adventure 390
The Ktm Adventure 390 has a top speed of 167 km/h (estimated; note: may vary slightly by market and conditions), produces 43 hp and weighs 177 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.5/10.
De KTM 390 Adventure werd in 2020 geïntroduceerd, gebaseerd op het populaire 390 Duke-platform, maar aangepast voor avontuurlijke tochten met een langere veerweg, een grotere brandstoftank en een ergonomie die geschikt is voor offroad. Het is ontwikkeld om een lichtgewicht, toegankelijk instapmodel te bieden in het avonturensegment, dat kan concurreren met fietsen zoals de Royal Enfield Himalayan en de BMW G 310 GS. Het model kreeg voor 2023 een belangrijke update met verbeterde elektronica, een TFT-scherm en ABS in bochten, waarmee zijn reputatie als veelzijdige, beginnersvriendelijke avonturenfiets werd versterkt.

Wat kopers moeten weten
Watch the Throttle Body
Early models (2020-2022) reported throttle body issues causing rough idle and stalling. KTM released firmware updates, so verify the dealer applied the latest ECU tune before buying.
TFT & Connectivity Edge
The 390 Adventure features a full-color TFT display with turn-by-turn navigation via Bluetooth and the KTM MY RIDE app — rare tech in the small-displacement adventure segment.
Strong Resale Holds
The 390 Adventure retains roughly 70-80% of its value after the first year due to high demand and limited used inventory, making it one of the better-holding small ADV bikes on the market.

Beoordeling van gebruikte kopers
"Brilliant used buy only if you vet it thoroughly first."
$4,500-$6,500 usedThe 390 Adventure is genuinely impressive for what it costs, but buy used and you're inheriting someone else's problems if you're not careful. These bikes attract newer riders who immediately bolt on accessories and thrash them on trails they weren't quite ready for. Check the subframe and bash plate religiously — the stock subframe is notoriously fragile and a cracked one means an expensive repair before you even ride it home. The Duke-derived 373cc single is bulletproof if serviced properly, but KTM's service intervals are tight and owners often skip them. That said, when everything's right, this thing punches embarrassingly hard above its weight class. The WP suspension is legitimately good, the TFT dash with turn-by-turn navigation feels premium, and the slim chassis makes technical trails approachable in ways a bigger GS simply isn't. It'll genuinely do light ADV touring with a passenger, though both of you will know about it after two hours. Spend the extra time finding a dealer-serviced example or a fastidious older owner. The bargain ones are bargains for a reason.
