The 390 Adventure could be accompanied by the 250 Adventure. The quarter-litre variant of KTM’s adventure family is already listed on the company’s Indonesian website. The 390 Adventure packs several premium and first-in-class features such as adjustable front and rear suspension, traction control system, full LED lighting and a Bluetooth-enabled colour TFT-display with turn-by-turn navigation. The relatively lower-spec 250 Adventure, on the other hand, receives a halogen headlight and non-adjustable front forks.

Mechanical specifications on the 390 Adventure include a 373.2 single-cylinder, liquid-cooled, 4-valve, DOHC engine that it will share with the 390 Duke. The single-cylinder mill delivers 43 hp of peak power and a maximum torque of 37 Nm. The 250 Adventure will share its engine with the 250 Duke. Thus, the engine specs on the quarter-litre model will include a 248.8 cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled, DOHC motor that delivers 29.5 hp of peak power and a max torque of 24 Nm.
