2021 KTM 390 Adventure
Engine
The KTM 390 adventure has got a liquid-cooled, single-cylinder, 4 strokes, 373 CC engine. This engine churns out 43.5 PS at 9000 rpm and 37 nm at 7000rpm. This makes the adventure Tourer a very agile and smooth machine. Twin overhead camshaft, for valves and electronic fuel injection, gives outstanding power. The balance shaft gives peak smoothness. To enable easy air intake channels, to shorten the distance of air to flow into the combustion chamber and for the gas flow to the 2 catalytic converters, 390 Adventure is made very lightweight and has very compact construction. The 2 catalytic converters and the fuel tank ventilation system used in the 390 Adventure improve the emission values and prevent the fuel vapours from releasing into the environment. This makes it very ecofriendly and pretty much complaint to the strict emission standards. A 6 speed transmission is fitted to the 390 Adventure. This allows for a smooth gear shift.
