The Austrian bike maker KTM is working on its upcoming bike RC 790. KTM RC 790 will be a fully-faired sportbike that will be based on Duke 790. The KTM RC 790 will be powered by a 799 CC parallel twin-cylinder liquid-cooled DOHC engine that will produce 104.6 PS at 9000 rpm and 87 Nm of torque at 8000 rpm. The engine of the bike is mated to a 6-speed gearbox and it will have a slipper clutch and assist as well along with other safety tech.

Thursday, 15 August 2024 05:19 PM KTM India is expected to launch new big bikes in the financial year 2025, which could include updates or new variants of the 790 Duke. This move is part of KTMs strategy to expand its presence in the Indian market with more high-performance motorcycles. I think this is a great move, as it will give Indian riders more options in the middleweight segment.
Monday, 23 September 2019 03:34 PM The KTM 790 Duke, launched in India in September 2019, is priced at Rs. 8.63 lakh (ex-showroom) and is the largest displacement offering from KTM in the country. It features a 799cc parallel twin engine producing 105hp and comes with advanced features like cornering ABS and a wheelie control system. I believe this bike has set a new standard for performance and safety in its class.
Monday, 23 September 2019 06:14 AM The KTM 790 Duke features multiple riding modes, including a Supermoto mode that switches off the ABS at the rear wheel, allowing for more aggressive riding. This, combined with its lean-sensitive traction control, makes it a versatile bike for various riding conditions. I think these features make it appealing to both casual and experienced riders.
Thursday, 05 September 2019 03:38 PM The KTM 790 Duke comes equipped with a full LED lighting system, including an LED headlight and LED strips as running lights, enhancing visibility both during the day and night. This feature, along with its aggressive design, makes it a standout in its segment. I believe the LED lighting system is a significant upgrade over traditional halogen units.
Thursday, 20 December 2018 12:01 PM KTM dealerships in India started accepting bookings for the 790 Duke in December 2018 with a token amount of Rs. 30,000. The bike was highly anticipated as it marked KTMs entry into the high-performance motorcycle segment in India. I think the pre-booking response was a clear indication of the excitement around this model.

I ride this 300 cc monster each and every day in my life since I bought it, just local errands about 40 to 50 kms everyday, even though everyone talks about the riding posture and all that, for a person height above 6 feet and above... It's gonna be the most perfect bike for you. Even though it takes your energy, due to its race posture, you gotta learn how to hold the belly of the bike and ride, that way it becomes easy. As the cons I mentioned: little tank, vibration due to less engine refinement, flat seat, no slipper clutch (in 2014 models). It's the bike for anyone and everyone to ride and learn before you proceed to higher capacity vehicles, so that you know how to control your mind speed, and to ride responsibly. This is true, applause to KTM for bringing such an awesome bike as this to India.

Best Features: Strong motor, even though it's a single 373cc cylinder, you gotta ride one of these.

Pros: Performance, riding posture for those track days, informative digital console.

Cons: Riding posture in terms of versatility or DAILY use. Vibs like hell, you can even say it's a sporty royal Enfield. FUEL tank: I gotta full my tank every 2 days, just gets boring
