About the KTM 390 Adventure X

Overview

The KTM 390 Adventure X is a motorcycle from KTM. It is currently on sale. With a 398.7 cc engine it sits in the 250–450 cc class.

Engine and performance

Power comes from a 398.7 cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled fuel-injected engine that makes 46 PS at 8,500 rpm and 39 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm. Its bore is wider than its stroke (89 mm x 64 mm), a short-stroke layout that generally favours higher revs. Divide power by kerb weight and it has about 254 PS per tonne; by that measure, it is genuinely fast, well beyond everyday traffic speeds. The claimed top speed is 160 km/h. It has electric start.

Gearbox

It has a 6-speed manual gearbox with a 1-down, 5-up shift pattern, and a chain carries drive to the rear wheel. Its slipper clutch lightens the lever and stops the rear wheel hopping when you downshift hard.

Chassis, brakes and tyres

Its frame is splite trellis frame, bolt on. At the front, the suspension is wp apex usd forks, 43 mm diameter, wheel travel - 200 mm. At the rear, it is wp apex monoshock, adjustable for preload (10-Step), wheel travel - 205 mm. Braking is by a 320 mm disc at the front and a 240 mm disc at the rear, with single-channel ABS. Single-channel ABS works on the front wheel, which does most of the stopping. It rides on 19-inch front and 17-inch rear alloy wheels with tubeless tyres — 100/90-19 at the front and 130/80-17 at the rear.

Size, comfort and range

The seat is 825 mm off the ground, which is on the tall side, so shorter riders may want to try it first. It weighs 181 kg ready to ride, which is on the heavy side, so moving it by hand takes some effort. Ground clearance is 228 mm — plenty for broken roads and tall speed breakers. The wheelbase is 1,470 mm. It carries 14.5 L of fuel.

Features and equipment

Equipment includes a digital instrument console, an LED headlamp, turn-by-turn navigation, USB charging port, call and SMS alerts, distance-to-empty readout, mobile app connectivity, cruise control, quickshifter and daytime running lamps, among others. Safety equipment includes side-stand warning, engine kill switch, hazard light switch, traction control and low fuel indicator.

Maintaining the KTM 390 Adventure X

  • Routine servicing

    Follow the schedule in the owner's manual for your exact variant and year. A regular service is the cheapest way to catch small problems before they become expensive ones.

  • Engine oil & filter

    Engine oil is the single most important consumable to keep fresh. Top up between services if the level drops, and change it on schedule.

  • Brake inspection

    With Disc, 320 mm and Disc, 240 mm brakes, check pad or shoe wear, lever and pedal free play, and braking feel at every service.

  • Chain cleaning & lubrication

    A clean, correctly tensioned and lubricated chain lasts longer and wastes less power. Check slack regularly, especially after riding in rain or dust.

  • Coolant & cooling system

    A liquid-cooled engine relies on coolant. Check the level and look over hoses and the radiator for leaks or damage, and replace coolant as the owner's manual directs.

  • Air filter & spark plug

    A clogged air filter or worn spark plug shows up as hard starting, weak throttle response and poorer fuel economy. Both are checked at a regular service and replaced when worn.

  • Disc brake fluid

    Brake fluid absorbs moisture over time, which lowers its boiling point. Have its level and condition checked and change it on the interval in the owner's manual.

  • Tyre inspection

    This bike runs 100/90-19 / 130/80-17 tyres. Check pressure, tread depth and sidewalls, and replace tyres that are worn or cracked.

  • Battery & electricals

    The battery is listed as 12 V, 8 AH MF battery. Weak starting, dim lights or a flickering console are early signs the battery or charging system needs a look.

KTM 390 Adventure X specs explained

What the technical terms on this page mean.

ABS
Anti-lock braking system. It stops a wheel locking up during hard braking so the rider can keep steering. A single-channel system works on one wheel, usually the front; a dual-channel system works on both.
OHC / SOHC / DOHC
How the engine's valves are operated. OHC and SOHC mean one overhead camshaft; DOHC means two, which usually allows higher revs and more power from the same size.
Fuel injection
Petrol is delivered by an electronically controlled injector instead of a carburettor, which helps with easy starting and steady fuel economy.
Liquid cooling
Coolant circulates through the engine and a radiator, keeping temperatures steadier than air alone, especially in traffic or under load.
Assist and slipper clutch
The assist part makes the clutch lever lighter. The slipper part eases the rear wheel's tendency to hop when you shift down hard.
Cruise control
Holds a set speed without you holding the throttle open, which reduces fatigue on longer, steady stretches.
Monoshock
A single rear shock absorber that does the work of a pair.
Upside-down fork
A front fork mounted the opposite way round to a conventional one, with the thicker tubes at the top. It is typically stiffer under braking and cornering.
Trellis frame
A frame built from tubes arranged in triangles, which gives strength without much weight.
Tubeless tyres
Tyres with no inner tube. A small puncture usually loses air slowly, which makes roadside repair easier.
