Pros	The new design language is inspired by the 1390 Super Duke. The off-road version looks closer to a rally-spec bike. The addition of new long-travel suspension. Addition of electronic rider aids such as cruise control, cornering ABS etc.	Most refined engine in the Duke series of models Powerful & fast performance overall Design is funky & modern with youthful appeal Braking power is very powerful Ride & handling combo is well tuned for enthusiasts
Cons	Lack of cruise control, cornering ABS and ride modes on the road-biased 390 Adventure X. The 390 Adventure X also lacks adjustable suspension.	Mid-range vibrations from engine are still present Aggressive riding position is not suited to all Pricey when compared to the rivals
