The engine will be the 399cc unit that powers the 390 Duke currently. The engine makes 45.3bhp and 39Nm of torque mated to a 6-speed gearbox. This will be the same engine that the 390 Adventure R and the 390 Adventure will get, however, there could be slight changes to the gearing with the Enduro R model, which we will get to know more in the coming days.
The KTM 390 Enduro R might not come to India, which is a bummer. European markets have a huge interest in Enduro models and KTM’s sales will be focused there with this motorcycle. However, if it does come to India along with the 390 Adventure models, it will be an exciting move for enthusiasts.
