The whole black variant of KTM 390 Duke 2017 has come into picture by spotting at a dealership in Bangalore. The pictures became viral on the facebook page of Bikeholic and seen in the black alloy wheels. The black color further extends to the headlamp and the fuel tank.
To distinguish from the black finish, it has a mixup of orange and white color power to give the trellis frame and rear subframe. The mentioning of ‘DUKE’ letter is different from the existing bike in color as existing has white color than KTM 390 Duke’s orange color. The tail section of the bike gets orange colored bodywork and the reflectors on the front fork are removed from the bike. There is a doubt about the color scheme that whether it’s a customised model by a dealer or official model of the bike.
It can be another color variant if the company launches the black color model. The company had sold out the white color in a limited edition in this April.
