What has changed on the 2026 KTM 390 Duke?
The updated 390 Duke is now available in European markets with two subtle changes – one for the looks and the other for better performance. The main part of the update is the new WP FCR4 front brake caliper, which has been fitted to offer better brake bite and to induce more confidence among the rider.
The second part of the update is the addition of a new matte blue colourway, which is called Atlantic Blue. This and the Gun Metal Grey paint options are now available for European buyers, offering better visual appeal.
While KTM has not revealed why it has updated the front brake caliper, we believe that this update is a part of the internal assessment and improvement program. Most manufacturers consistently work on the feedback of their products, and KTM is surely one of the most active manufacturers to improve as per the feedback received.
While the Indian wing of the KTM is yet to reveal whether these updates will make to India or not, we suspect that the updated model could be launched in the coming weeks with no price change.
