KTM RC 390

I wanted a bike that offers sharp design and a strong on-road presence, especially for weekend rides. One of my friends recommended the KTM RC 390, so I started checking all its details before deciding. The RC 390 comes with a 373cc engine, quick shifter, PASC antihopping clutch, and TFT display. It also features dual-channel ABS and ride-by-wire tech. Mileage is around 25–27 kmpl, which feels okay for a bike in this performance category.
