The Spec'd take

Why it stands out

  • Real strong engine performance inherited from the KTM 390 Duke platform, priced meaningfully below it
  • Adjustable WP APEX suspension with genuinely sharp, progressive brakes

Worth knowing

  • Real tube-type spoke wheels are puncture-prone and feel dated versus tubeless-equipped rivals
  • Despite scrambler styling, just 177mm ground clearance and no true lean-sensitive cornering ABS make it genuinely less off-road capable than its looks suggest
