2020 KTM 390 ADVENTURE
KTM North America, Inc. recently announced details of the highly-anticipated
KTM 390 ADVENTURE, the next step in KTM’s incredibly versatile ADVENTURE
lineup. As an introduction to the world of light offroading and wider adventure
touring, this motorcycle is a pure class-leader, combining the most powerful
single in the segment with unmatched technology.
The new KTM 390 ADVENTURE has harnessed the attributes and DNA from the
popular and highly rated KTM 790 ADVENTURE, as well as the development in-
formation gleaned from nearly two decades of Dakar Rally success. A light, agile
and confidence-inspiring entry model for riders looking to discover the world
of adventure riding, this motorcycle offers added versatility for touring and
light offroading. Using elements of the KTM 390 DUKE as a base, the KTM 390
ADVENTURE offers proximity to the feeling and performance found at the root
of the all-conquering KTM 450 RALLY but with efficiency and comfort as part of
the package.
