About the KTM 390 Enduro R

Overview

The KTM 390 Enduro R is an off-road motorcycle from KTM. It is currently on sale. Off-road bikes are built for dirt trails, with long-travel suspension and knobbly tyres. 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 260 PS per tonne; by that measure, it is genuinely fast, well beyond everyday traffic speeds. 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.

Chassis, brakes and tyres

At the front, the suspension is full adjustable wp apex 43 mm inverted forks, travel 230 mm. At the rear, it is wp apex adjustable shock, travel 230 mm. Braking is by a 285 mm disc at the front and a 240 mm disc at the rear, with dual-channel ABS. ABS on both wheels keeps either tyre from locking under hard braking. It rides on 21-inch front and 18-inch rear spoke wheels — 90/90-21 at the front and 140/80-18 at the rear.

Size, comfort and range

The seat is 860 mm off the ground, which is on the tall side, so shorter riders may want to try it first. It weighs 177 kg ready to ride, which is on the heavy side, so moving it by hand takes some effort. Ground clearance is 253 mm — plenty for broken roads and tall speed breakers. The wheelbase is 1,470 mm. It carries 9 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, gear position indicator, mobile app connectivity, 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. It has two riding modes: Off-Road and Street.

Care notes for this model

Its chain drive needs regular cleaning, lubrication and slack adjustment.

Maintaining the KTM 390 Enduro R

  • 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, 285 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 90/90-21 / 140/80-18 tyres. Check pressure, tread depth and sidewalls, and replace tyres that are worn or cracked.

  • Battery & electricals

    Weak starting, dim lights or a flickering console are early signs the battery or charging system needs a look.

KTM 390 Enduro R 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.
Trellis frame
A frame built from tubes arranged in triangles, which gives strength without much weight.
Kerb weight
The weight of the bike ready to ride, with its fluids and fuel, but without a rider or luggage.
Bore x stroke
The cylinder's width and the piston's travel. A larger bore relative to stroke tends to favour revs; a longer stroke tends to favour low-speed pull.
Compression ratio
How much the fuel-air mixture is squeezed before it is ignited. It is one of the factors behind an engine's efficiency and power.
