ktm 390 duke custom tft display made in china

So what exactly is this Excelle 321R? Well, on paper, it isn’t all that bad. Features consist of an LED headlight and tail light, inverted front forks, dual front disc brakes, and dare I say, a rather handsome single-sided swingarm. It even comes with a full-color TFT display. The engine is a 321cc parallel-twin with a 180-degree crankshaft. If this sounds familiar, that’s because it certainly is. It is, in fact, suspected to be a clone of the engine found in the Yamaha R3. That said, sources claim that this engine is a reverse-engineered R3 engine, which is really just a fancy way of saying that they straight up copied it, right?

The manufacturer claims that the engine produces 42 horsepower at 10,500 revs, and has a top speed of 112 miles per hour—pretty impressive stuff. Even more impressive, it weighs a featherweight 153 kgs, exactly the same as the KTM 390 Duke. That said, it’s sure to be quite the punchy little naked bike. Initially launched in China at CNY 25,000, or the equivalent of $3,813 USD, there’s no telling as of yet whether or not this bike will enter the global market.

Chinese motorcycle manufacturer has been making international headlines for all the right reasons lately. From its new and exciting KTM-derived adventure bike, the 800MT, to its continuous partnership with KTM, it seems that the Zhejiang-based company has been going strong as of late.

To make up for its lack of power, CFMoto has fitted the bike with nothing but the techiest features available in the market for bikes of this class. It gets a full-color TFT display and LED lighting all around. The bike is suspended on KYB-sourced inverted forks and a preload-adjustable rear monoshock. Braking duties are likewise handled by ABS-equipped disc brakes on both ends.

A state-of-the-art, liquid cooled, single-cylinder, four-stroke 373 cc engine powers this agile machine perfectly into KTM"s world of ADVENTURE. The engine is equipped with an electric starter and achieves a peak power of 32 kW (43 hp) with an incredibly punchy 37 Nm of torque. Twin overhead camshafts, four valves and electronic fuel injection are integral to the KTM 390 ADVENTURE"s outstanding power and together with a balancer shaft, deliver the highest levels of smoothness. Its lightweight and compact construction facilitates straight air intake channels, allowing for a shortened distance for air to flow into the combustion chamber, and beyond for gas flow to the two catalytic converters. Besides the faster movement of air and gases, this also allows the engine to warm up faster. Additionally, the two catalytic converters and the fuel tank ventilation system (EVAP system) improve emission values and prevent fuel vapors from being released into the environment, making the KTM 390 ADVENTURE extremely eco-friendly and compliant with the strict EU5 exhaust emission standards.

KTM roars into the new year with a fast-as-ever brace of STREET motorcycles, covering the full spectrum of road-going machines catering to all riders and riding types.

At the entry point, KTM brings the small but mighty KTM 125 DUKE and KTM 390 DUKE Naked machines out to play. These are flanked by the impressive new generation Supersport weapons in KTM RC 125 and KTM RC 390 guises.

Not to be outdone in the mid-weight class, the KTM 790 DUKE makes a reappearance, with the KTM 890 DUKE GP bringing extreme attitude and the KTM 890 DUKE R providing the class muscle.

The original scalpel slices back onto the scene as an A2 compatible entry point to the KTM mid-weight range, bringing its razor-sharp handling to the beginner segment. This decision comes off the back of a partnership agreement with Chinese manufacturer, CFMOTO, which sees the 790cc powerplant continued. This means the 105-horsepower naked machine will continue to fill a core gap in the market globally, with a dedicated 95 horsepower A2 compatible version taking on the streets in Europe.

Both models in the KTM RC range receive the KTM GP orange treatment, complete with black exhaust. All 2023 KTM RC models also feature a dark-tinted screen as standard.

The spawn of the beast, the KTM 125 DUKE gets a fresh color update, introducing a blue-on-white motif, accented by an orange tailpiece and striking orange wheels.

The KTM 890 DUKE GP introduces more black to the fray with an eye-catching black-on-white colorway, set off by a striking orange subframe and orange wheels.

Lots of vents on the fascia, side panels and even at the rear, coupled with the winglets gives the Zongshen Cyclone RC401 an intimidating appearance. Furthermore, the Chinese bikemaker has equipped the RC401 with premium features like all-LED illumination, a Bluetooth-enabled TFT instrument console and even two riding modes.

But the Zongshen Cyclone RX401 isn’t short on features either. It gets a TFT console with Bluetooth connectivity and navigation, tyre pressure monitor, and two charging sockets. However, there’s a low-end variant available that uses an LCD console.

The Cyclone RC401 and RX401 are powered by the same 401cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine belting out 44PS at 9500rpm and 37Nm at 8000rpm. For reference, KTM’s single-cylinder 373.2cc mill dishes out 43.5PS at 9000rpm and 37Nm at 7000rpm. Both the bikes come with a six-speed gearbox mated to a slipper clutch.

Though these bikes are unlikely to come to India, their price tag of CNY 28,800 or Rs 3.41 lakh for the RC401 and CNY 31,980 (Rs 3.79 lakh) for the RX 401 make them enticing options for what they have to offer. But if you are looking to buy an ADV with similar performance, you can consider the KTM 390 Adventure, while the KTM RC390 is an alternative to the RC401.

The KTM 390 DUKE is a pure example of what draws so many to the thrill of street motorcycling. This Corner Rocket maximizes enjoyment and user value, taking the honors wherever nimble handling counts. Light as a feather, powerful and packed with state-of-the-art technology, it guarantees a thrilling ride, whether you’re fighting your way through the urban jungle or carving your name into a forest of bends.

It’s the guarantee of a smooth throttle response, more than simply the absence of a throttle cable.

It also electronically translates the throttle commands of the rider into throttle valve positions, perfectly suited to the riding conditions, making this the perfect crossover bike for both road and circuit riding.

The intricate engine design, state-of-the-art injection electronics and close-ratio, 6-speed transmission not only help the KTM 390 DUKE to achieve white-knuckle performance, but also extremely low fuel consumption.

As light as they are stable, the 17-inch cast alloy racing wheels help you put the power down with confidence, utilizing a 110 mm wide tire at the front and an impressive 150 mm at the rear. Wrapped in premium rubber, the pro-spec tires will keep your KTM 390 DUKE glued to the road. They offer outstanding grip in both wet and dry conditions, as well as providing supreme durability, even for riders that know how to push tires to their absolute limits.

A high-tech BYBRE braking system works in perfect harmony with the advanced ABS, providing riders with firm, controlled stopping power when they need it most. With a 320 mm brake disc on the front, paired with a 230 mm disc on the rear, the KTM 390 DUKE delivers exceptional pro-level stopping power, and you know what they say: “braking harder makes you faster!”

As an absolute first in its class, the KTM 390 DUKE boasts an innovative multicolor TFT display, presenting all the data you need to go faster in a clear-cut, uncluttered way. As you rev the engine, the display bars change color, either spurring you on or telling you to back off when the engine’s still cold. The display also automatically adapts its color to best suit the light conditions around you. Innovation at its best!!!

The aggressively styled LED headlight on the KTM 390 DUKE is a big highlight in this bike’s design and a clear referral to its big brother, the KTM 1290 SUPER DUKE R. Practical as well as looking ultra-mean, it produces outstanding visibility for riding in low light or dark conditions. The parking light, which consists of 20 LEDs, ensures that the bike is highly visible to other road users, keeping you safe while you dominate the streets.
