When I took my Duke 390 in for its first service , they had two RC’s in stock. They were in the blue and orange colourway and just looked stunning. The 390 engine is a peach to ride ( for a 400cc) its torquey upto 6/7 k and then at 8.5k rpm it goes again. It makes peak power at 9.5 so it loves to rev.
Cracking little bikes, although not that little as was surprisingly roomy for my 6’1” lardy body.
Quite tempted….
Picked it up today.
It’s a right hoot. So light to chuck around and the quickshifter is very good .

You're too tall, allegedly, for it!
Says who ?
Wifey says she wants to ride it which was a factor in buying it . Plus it’ll be the polar opposite to the Wing
I love my 390 Duke and have just taken it on its third long trip to Nice and back even though I have always had other bikes that many would deem more suitable.
It always puts a smile on my face, is light, brilliant around the mountains, won't get me sent to prison and a lot more.
Two other forum members have bought them after borrowing mine even though they're both over 6'
I even took it to Guernsey once!

The RC is a bloody hoot. Cracking handling and it really is a mini sports bike with the quick shifter and cornering ABS etc etc .
I could imagine blatting over the Route Napoleon on it if only my back and knees would allow me to ride it down .
My Duke was fantastic around the mountains and this would be even better.
