Trending Questions on KTM 390 Adventure - Answered by Autocar Experts

Asked by: Deepanshu Shokenon Nov 12, 2025

I currently own an Aprilia RS 457 and use it for a daily 20 km one-way commute (about half open road and half bumper-to-bumper traffic). The RS 457 is uncomfortable, so I plan to sell it and buy a more city-friendly bike. I want something lightweight with a low seat height (I’m 5'6"), a refined engine, plush suspension, and the ability to cruise comfortably at 100 km/h for occasional short highway runs.

Since you are used to a good amount of performance, we'd suggest you move to something like the Triumph Speed 400. This bike will meet your needs of having a comfortable riding position as well as a reasonably low seat height. 

There are more comfortable options available, but almost all of them are adventure bikes with relatively tall seats. If you can get along with a taller seat, we'd recommend options like the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 or KTM 390 Adventure as good replacements for your Aprilia RS 457.

Asked by: Bishwarup Dasgupon Nov 5, 2025

I have low back listhesis and ride about 80-100 km per week. The roads I use have potholes and rough patches. Please suggest a smooth bike that won’t aggravate my back. I’m 52 years old.

Depending on your budget, adventure bikes like the Hero Xpulse 210, TVS Apache RTX 300, Royal Enfield Himalayan 450, and KTM 390 Adventure are good options for your needs.
If you prefer a neo-retro style, consider the Honda CB350 series or the Royal Enfield Classic, Bullet, or Hunter 350.
If you want to stay under ₹2 lakh, look at 150-160cc commuters, such as the Honda Unicorn, Bajaj Pulsar N160, or TVS Apache RTR 160 4V. Take thorough test rides to find which one suits you best.

Asked by: Mohiton Nov 3, 2025

Hi. I’m 28 years old and currently own a TVS Apache 200 4V, which I mostly ride in the city. I’m 6'4" tall and weigh about 80 kg. I want to upgrade to an adventure bike. I do Sunday rides of ~50 km and one or two 250 km round trips occasionally. My budget is ₹4 lakh. Please suggest suitable adventure bikes for my size and use case. Thanks.

Adventure bikes are a great option for a one bike garage when you need to do long trips, especially at the lower end of the market. We would advise you to pick between the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 and the KTM 390 Adventure duo, depending on your needs. Both options have great comfort, strong performance and superb comfort, so take a long test ride to see which one suits you best.

Asked by: Sai Rohithon Nov 2, 2025

Hi, I’m 5'11" tall and looking for adventure bike options within a ₹3-5 lakh budget (including optional upgrades and accessories). My main use will be city commuting and weekend trips twice a month. I prefer something between 300cc and 500cc.

The top adventure bike picks in this segment are the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450, KTM 390 Adventure, and KTM 390 Adventure X. All offer strong performance, great comfort, and a great feature set.
Another option is the Kawasaki Versys-X 300, which, though dated, remains a decent choice, especially after the recent GST revision has reduced its price.

Asked by: Josephjayanth Jon Nov 2, 2025

I travel around 40km daily to the office on bumpy roads and have started experiencing back strain. Could you suggest a comfortable bike? My height is 175cm, my weight is 105kg, and my budget is ₹2-4 lakh.

Considering your long commute, an adventure bike would be the perfect option for tackling rough roads. At the lower end of the spectrum, the Hero Xpulse 210 is worth considering, while the Royal Enfield Himalayan and KTM 390 Adventure are strong options at the higher end.
Take a thorough test ride to see which suits you best. The Xpulse is the lightest of the three, the Himalayan is the heaviest, and the KTM sits in between.

Asked by: Shoaib Khanon Oct 29, 2025

Hi. I want to buy a new bike. Currently own a 2009 Pulsar 180 UG4 with 93,500 kms on odo. I also had the 1st gen 2014 KTM RC 390 for quite sometime during my early days of my IT job. I am now a father of 4 year old daughter and pickndrop her daily 2 km either on my pulsar, activa or creta (during chilled mornings & rainy days). I commute to my office once a week (10 kms away) in traffic along with occasional leisure ride with family. My budget is 3.5 lakh & don’t like cruiser/bobbers.

If you want your new bike to be sporty and compact, then bikes like the KTM 390 Duke, TVS Apache RTR 310 and Honda CB300R would be our recommendation. 

If you want to have a machine that's capable of doing longer distances with luggage and/or a pillion, then an adventure bike like the KTM 390 Adventure (either of the 2 variants will do) or the Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 will fit the bill. 

Before pulling the trigger, try to get long test rides of every bike you are considering to make an informed decision.
