The Next-Gen Duke 390 is already on our Indian roads and it has been caught testing multiple times after its global unveil at EICMA in November 2016. Recently, the updated 2017 RC390 was also showcased and both of them are expected to be launched in India sometime this year.
In an update, Rohit Paradkar of Overdrive has tweeted that KTM will launch the 2017 RC390 as early as on the 19th of January, along with the 2017 RC200.
