The KTM 390 Enduro R is KTM’s intention to build a true dual‑sport / light enduro motorcycle that blends its 390‑series performance with genuine off-road capability. Launched in India for around ₹ 3.36 lakh (ex-showroom), it’s positioned as a more rugged and off-road‑oriented alternative to the 390 Adventure, bringing serious trail-ready features in a relatively light package.
At its core lies a 399 cc single‑cylinder, liquid-cooled LC4c engine, producing about 46 PS at 8,500 rpm and 39 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm, according to KTM’s Indian spec. This engine is shared with the 390 Duke / Adventure, but in the Enduro R the tuning and gearing favor low‑to-mid range grunt — especially useful when riding off-road. Power is sent through a 6-speed gearbox with a mechanically operated slipper (or “assist/slipper”) clutch, giving it both durability and good control in uneven terrain.
In terms of suspension, the India-spec Enduro R features WP APEX upside-down forks with 200 mm of travel up front, and a WP APEX split-piston shock at the rear with 205 mm of travel. While this is slightly less than the international spec, these settings are already tuned for a good balance of on-road stability and off-road absorption. The chassis uses a steel trellis frame and a die-cast aluminium swingarm, giving a rigid but relatively lightweight base to handle rough terrain with confidence.
The Enduro R’s ergonomics clearly reflect its off-road wiring: it has a single-piece, flat, rally-style seat, allowing the rider to move position easily while standing or sitting.

Its seat height is 860 mm, which is lower than many other dual-sport bikes, making it more accessible — especially for the Indian market.

It also offers a respectable ground clearance of 253 mm, helping clear obstacles and uneven terrain.

The bike rides on 21″ front and 18″ rear spoked wheels, fitted with Mitas Enduro Trail tyres for grip on unpaved surfaces.

Braking is handled by disc brakes both front (285 mm) and rear (240 mm), and the bike comes equipped with dual-channel ABS that can be switched to an Off-road mode or even turned off at the rear for more controlled sliding.

On the tech front, the 390 Enduro R doesn’t disappoint: it gets a 4.2″ anti-glare TFT display with Bluetooth connectivity, turn-by-turn navigation, music and call controls, and a USB-C charging port.

There are two ride modes — Street and Off-road — which adjust throttle response and ABS settings.

Traction control is also present, helping maintain grip on slippery off-road terrain.

Fuel capacity is modest, with a 9-litre tank, which helps keep the weight down and the bike nimble.

Speaking of weight, the kerb weight is 177 kg for the Indian spec, which is quite respectable given the off-road-ready components and protection gear.
The Financial Express
Overall, the KTM 390 Enduro R is a well-balanced machine that feels at home both on asphalt and dirt. It offers real off-road capability without compromising too much on daily usability. For those looking for a lightweight but powerful bike for trail riding, weekend adventure escapes, or even mixed commuting, this model is a compelling pick. Its feature-rich design and KTM’s proven engine make it a strong entry into serious dual-sport territory.
