Better less — KTM Duke. Part 4
And in general, the geometry of the naked was slightly "edited": the wheelbase was shortened by 10mm, and the fork outflow decreased by 5 mm.
Fork
The motorcycle received a new White Power fork of an inverted type, devoid of any adjustments. However, they are not needed here: the front suspension of the 390 Duke is configured well, and there is nothing to complain about.
The list of metamorphoses of the Austrian nylon, assembled by the dexterous hands of tanned Indians, is completed by a color dashboard on thin-film transistors, a fuel tank enlarged to 13.4 liters, a front brake disc "grown" to 320 mm and an LED headlight. In general, as written above, there are really a lot of changes, but they are by no means revolutionary — rather, they are the result of a reasonable evolution to adapt the model to the requirements of today. But here's the paradox: you don't recognize a motorcycle!
To begin with, a completely different ergonomics. The 390 Duke gas tank not only holds more precious fuel, but also has a different shape: it is lower and wider, which makes the knees now have something to cling to in deep bends when cornering. At the same time, thanks to the new stretcher, the seat is located slightly higher, which, coupled with a wide straight steering wheel, forms a comfortable and rather daring fit at the same time. And most importantly, the 390 Duke of the 2018 model year feels one hundred percent like an "adult" motorcycle! And the more time you spend with him, the more convinced you become of this.
The TFT dashboard of the updated 390 Duke has impressive functionality. So, an adaptive light indication function is "sewn" into it, which automatically triggers under different scenarios. For example, while the engine is warming up and the coolant has not reached operating temperature, the scale of the tape tachometer is "drawn" in blue — which means that it is not yet time to hit the road. There is also a light sensor, thanks to which the panel automatically switches between day and night modes, and several so-called user's favorite screens, which can be customized to your taste and then called up by pressing the buttons on the steering wheel... Well, we are waiting for the appearance of the built-in GPS navigator!
Due to the late start from the hotel, having slightly strayed from the test schedule clearly outlined by the Austrians, the leader of the "link" of ten "Dukes" was not particularly shy about violently and with special cynicism violating the Italian speed limits. 175 km/h!., and the motorcycle, on which he lay down on the gas tank, like a sniper in position, still had a reserve of revolutions for further acceleration!
