    I currently have the RC390 and has me thinking of adding an SMC R690, BUT the 790 looks like the hot set up, and is probably much smoother! Beautiful Bike and All KTM's kick out the jams!

      If you can keep the 390 and wait to see how KTM handles the 790 camshaft drama!
      BTW... I own a duke 2023 duke 790 and I love it. That bike is so much fun

      @@Bikelifers69. nah mate, you will regret it , they’ve been lying to loyal customers for 4 years about the cam-lobe problem & lots of other problems , the boss’s at KTM should be strung up with class actions , only last week the pressure was too much and they’ve calling back 790, 890, & 901 Norton’s

      ​@@queenslander954It's not the oil that's the problem it's the oil delivery thats the issue causing the lobes to be dry and wear down. Not just pre 21 either.
