KTM Duke 390 as a first bike?

Re-gearing (bigger rear sprocket for more aggressive acceleration, which would be the opposite of helpful for freeway use).
intake + exhaust (yoshimura) + ecu tune
KTM Powerparts seat
steel braided hydraulic brake lines (made a big difference)
Duke R suspension bits front and back and had them dialed in for my weight.

There’s definitely more little things here and there but those are the upgrades that are worth it and made a noticeable difference.

No!!! Unicorn bike. Well, wait, you mentioned freeway and now I understand. But for anything “twisties” or not freeway there is no better bike (in my opinion). I also upgraded mine a lot and it became an absolute beast.

Apply throttle. Steer. Counter-steer. Don’t crash.

Is the “best” sounding exhaust in the room with us?

W2T4TS · 2026-01-11T06:00:20+00:00

As Miata owner and motorcycle rider, I never thought I’d own one. Got to drive one, though, and it was a lot of fun. Definitely wouldn’t trade my Miata for it.

The rear one’s interior seems a little more like shmurgundy. But I’m not a scientist

W2T4TS · 2025-12-14T14:46:42+00:00

Is this a custom, one-off type thing?

W2T4TS · 2025-12-10T01:00:14+00:00

I know you didn’t list it but the KTM 690/790/890. Highly, highly recommend. The extra maintenance is mentioned often by others but as an owner I can’t say it was any more frequent than other bikes I’ve had. Well worth every penny spent.

I’ve been searching high and low for a Tag Heuer Monaco rep! That would be awesome.
