The Global Launch Everyone’s Talking About!

Jan 31, 2025 | News

The wait is over! KTM has officially unveiled the 2025 KTM 390 Adventure R & X, bringing major upgrades to the lightweight adventure segment. With an all-new 399cc engine producing 45.3 hp, a redesigned chassis, and a fully fueled weight as low as 379 lbs (172 kg), these bikes are set to redefine what small-displacement adventure machines can do.

The 390 Adventure R is designed for serious off-road riding, featuring 21”/18” spoked wheels, fully adjustable WP APEX suspension, and Offroad ABS. Meanwhile, the 390 Adventure X takes a more versatile approach, offering a lower seat height, 19”/17” cast wheels, and a comfortable suspension setup for long-distance travel.

Both models come with advanced electronics, including multiple ride modes, traction control, and a refined braking system developed with Brembo, ensuring rider confidence on any terrain. KTM has also expanded the lineup by introducing the 390 Enduro R and 390 SMC R, sharing the same engine but optimized for different styles of riding.

Lighter, more powerful, and more capable than ever before, the 2025 KTM 390 Adventure lineup is here to shake up the ADV world!
