Budget 450mt? - Page 2

FYI ProD, the Ducati 390 Duke is not a KTM-
DEIT:Correction. No, it is a KTM road bike

But KTM has a 390 Adventure bike. It is NOT a road bike like your CFmoto 450nk. It is more like the CFmoto 450mt.

Yes, the KTM 390 adventure is a single, and it vibrates more than the CFmoto 450 engine.

The real strength of the KTM 390 adv is the lower weight, while it still has exceptional, and adjustable suspension in a stiffer frame. This pays off when you leave the pavement, where a little extra vibration isn't that important.

I've sat on the KTM 390 adv. I like the ergonomics. I am about 5'10".

I never heardof the Ducati duke 390.
Only know the KTM Duke 390, which is a naked/street fighter bike.
The KTM 390 (non-adventure) felt heavier. It's wheels were smaller, so it means more of its weight was up top, compared to the CFmoto 450nk.

I'm only comparing the naked bikes, but maybe KTM may have the upper hand in weight in the adventure section, I don't know.

My mistake. It is indeed a KTM. I was looking right at it and thought it was a Ducati.
