        KTM is always one of the best brands, and I really like the Duke 390. The features of this bike are impressive, and it truly stands out. I plan to buy the Duke 390 in the future because it’s my dream bike. I’m a big fan of KTM bikes in general—from the Duke 160, 200, 250, 390 to the Super Duke—they all have great performance and style. Can’t wait to own one!
