KTM 390 Duke, Used vs New | KTM 390 Duke FAQ #13

  • Should you even think about a used KTM 390 Duke given everything you read online about it? Yes you should! The 390 Duke received a big update in 2017 with better suspension, a bigger tank and better throttle response etc. These go for about half the price of a new 2022 model today on the used market. The oldest ones, 2013s sit a bit under a lakh. So they're super cheap to buy. They're also quite reliable. To make double sure, avoid the years when big changes came... so 2014s are better than 13s and the 2018s over 2017s. And KTM parts are cheap, right after you buy, get it serviced, change all the fluids and you should usually find a reliable motorcycle. Remember there are loads around and some are ridden badly. So take your time and do not rush in to the purchase.

  • @NAMELESSHOSTAGE
    @NAMELESSHOSTAGE Рік тому +81

    I had the same idea. Saw a bunch of used Dukes under 70k, plus the additional work on them would be at least 40k. So under 130k, I could definitely own a 5 year old, 7 year old or even a 10 year old motorcycle. Not to forget the KMs it has already travelled and the abuse it has already undergone.
    But adding more 25k, I could own a Yamaha MT15 v2, which is not a KTM but a decent modern naked sports motorcycle.
    Yeah, it'll not have the performance similar like a Duke 390, but for someone who will not visit a racing track in a million years, like me, Yamaha MT15 v2 makes more sense.
    I think used Dukes are truly for someone who has that brand value and respect in them. For the rest of us, we have newer options available rather than buying a decade year old motorcycle.

But most normal middle class boys who can only afford 1 motorcycle which they will ride it to their graves, they will not opt for a decade old motorcycle when they can get a new motorcycle with decent performance.
      New stuff trumps used stuff in this country no matter the brand, for middle class at least.

      ​@@NAMELESSHOSTAGE the used motorcycle market is as big as the new motorcycle market. It's not true that most of the middle class doesn't buy used.

      ​@@AtomicVoid95I can see your point about the comparison b/w D390 & MT15. But I also get the logic of the OP. I bought a motorcycle last year, & despite yearning for a higher powered motorcycle like a 390 or a 650, I settled for a new Hunter. Simply because I DO NOT trust the riders in our country to sell a bike in good condition, that has not been abused, or has not faced existential crises.

The kind of money I was ending up paying for something that has limited life and essentially has also spent much of that already, made me realise until & unless there is systemic support for the used vehicle market, & the public learns to maintain a vehicle properly, buying a used vehicle in India is a gamble. It's like standing in a queue, We might see ppl flaunting prim used vehicles, but when we get one ourselves, we'll end up realising the mistake.

    I was always looking for a new duke 390.My heart was broken after seeing the BS6 in 2020 for its under belly exhaust and KTM said they have a bash plate for it. That was the moment I clearly guessed this is a temporary fix to that new exhaust routing. If I get this now,sooner I will regret once ktm completely changes the system and that happened in 2023 with a whole new bike with a larger ground clearance. I decided to pick a duke 390 bs4 2019 model and I am happy with it till date with no exhaust issues !

Simply because I DO NOT trust the riders in our country to sell a bike in good condition, that has not been abused, or has not faced existential crises. Also, in the case of premium bikes, the Q. of *fiddling with the stock integrity* comes up. Exhausts, air filters, brakes, suspension, god knows what all could have been changed. Then you're not buying a bike _all new for yourself_ , the one from the manufacturer that *you actually fell in love with.* Its a custom job that you do not even recognise as the bike you loved initially.

    That Yamaha FZ X 150 also looks good as an option.
    Modern features, retro style, decent performance as a daily driver.
    Someone who wishes to have Hunter 350 but has a stricter budget, can definitely go with it.
    We tend to stress over these engine sizes, brand values, etc, when modern machines with enough features can fulfill most of our daily requirements to buy groceries and drop children at their school or visit a relative in the next city.

    KTMs are relatively very cheap for maintainance considering the power it offers. The reason why chapris also buy second hand KTMs and so the resale value is high in ktm. If you don't have the budget , get a used KTM with proper checking as most redline them without regular oil change and other periodic maintenance. It won't burn a hole in your pocket for the maintenance if you have the money to buy petrol because it is a drinker
