How Much Power Does The 2020 KTM 390 Adventure Make?

The 2020 KTM 390 Adventure is the Orange Brigade’s all-new and highly anticipated addition to its Adventure lineup—including the 790 Adventure and 1290 Adventure models. It’s the smallest bike of the bunch, being powered by the same liquid-cooled, 373cc single-cylinder engine found in the 390 Duke. The Adventure model, however, is wrapped in a steel trellis frame derived from KTM’s 450 Rally racer, and comes equipped with more dirt-oriented WP Apex suspension and visual cues adopted from its siblings.
