Improved braking performance expected

The 2026 KTM 390 Duke now features a new WP FCR4 front brake caliper, which the company claims will offer improved stopping performance.

For 2026, the bike also gets a new deep matte blue colour scheme. In international markets, this joins the black colourway that is already available in India.

The rest of the motorcycle remains mechanically unchanged. It continues to be powered by the same 399cc single-cylinder engine producing 46hp and 39Nm, paired with a 6-speed gearbox. Features include a 5-inch TFT display, multiple riding modes and rider aids such as traction control, cruise control, and launch control.

As of now, there is no announcement from KTM India on whether the updated braking hardware and new colour option will be introduced on the India-spec 390 Duke.
