KTM Duke 390[/caption]
KTM India registered 3,511 units in total sales. The number is not at all healthy for a brand which has niche fan following in the country. Also, the 350+ dealerships across India are the highest for a sportbike brand. They need to improve the number for both 250 and 390 series of bikes considerably or face tough competition from Kawasaki in the coming days.
