KTM 390 Duke vs. BMW G310R vs. Ducati Scrambler Sixty2, Part 2

[@narendrarajput1679]

BMW g310r is also made in India by TVS!!

[@xplorographer6334]

Even the BMW is made in India 😂👌

[@Rezaroth]

KTM is made in India? I thought its made in Austria! Good job Indians.

[@MrX-eo3zh]

Faisal AL-Maiman It's an Austrian Company, whose maximum shares is being owned by Bajaj So now, It's been making in India,,.

[@superwario64]

Faisal AL-Maiman they have a production hub in india thats all

[@gamerstrand]

Maximum shares? Bajaj has 48% holding in KTM AG, KTM CEO Pierer's Cross Industries AG holds 51.28% equity in KTM AG.

[@TusharWalwaikar]

The KTM duke 390 seen here was assembled in India you Dumb Shit !!!!

[@karthikmalayil]

england is my titty ur just a another fool who havent came out of fairyland ,u idiot KTM major 49% share is now owned by bajaj and is ( made in india )at Sakkan plant ..ur an another shit box..wat to do with these dumb asses.

[@shannondsz]

The BMW G310r and KTM Duke 390 are both Made in India. TVS Motor manufactures the BMW G310r and Bajaj Auto manufactures the KTM Duke 390.

[@NotSoBurundian]

I am not Indian, but i can tell you that every time a joke about was made about the country my distaste for the video grew by the second. These jokes are getting old. :/

[@Dreddingbath]

Agree, nothing wrong with Indian build quality compared to anywhere else...just look at the GS!

[@tharunvt]

For starters, the KTM is the first bike in its class to hold a fully functional TFT console which u can pair with ur phone. It has slipper clutch a feature that goes missing in even many liter class bikes. It also has a steel trellis frame, a WP suspension, ride by wire technology any many more

[@alainremi267]

I started in 1964 on a 125cc Vespa. Ten bikes later, I'm riding every day a 192 kg Yamaha, but if in 5 years I'm still in shape, my last bike could very well be a BMW G310R which is 28 kg lighter & 2 cm lower than my 2010 MT03, all this to say "beginner's" bike are often also excellent "veteran's bike" 😁😁😁

[@jamesnickel2383]

I was recently checking a scarambler sixty2 and it's made in Thailand. Not Italy. Clearly stated by the in and label.

[@thomashaas2929]

[@Simarjeet]

I use to watch your videos but after what's been said i unsubscribed you guys... very unprofessional... And to my fellow indian buddies, not to get offend by a bunch of unprofessional youtube vloggers..Two of them are already oldies n this channel is their final hope to achieve something in life..anyway best of luck "THE BIKE SHOW".

[@nothingtoseehere4902]

simarjeet bamrah fuck off then turd.

[@Just_A_Biker]

That BMW is also "Made in India"

[@Phae0610]

Ok but I love my BMW G310R AND my Ducati Scrambler Nightshift. They’re both 2023 so maybe they’ve worked out some of those issues 😅

[@dry509]

What about performance, handling, braking, transmission, clutch, vibration? Which one is actually the best over all?

[@MatBettinson]

Wow, the SA motorcycle licence process is a bit of an eye opener. In Australia, it's insane now. First, it's a two-day course to do your Ls. You'll need a driving license or an L driving licence too. It's a theory test, a range-based test and a final on-the-road bit. Then some months later there's a 'check ride' which is basically the licence test on the road. A month after you can take the real test. This is a sequence of five sections where you are given directions by the examiner and they follow behind. All up, it costs about AU$1000 to do it assuming you pass all of it, and half don't.

[@joshuadine4110]

Im 40 and i was looking at these 3 bikes and the honda cb300 and cb500. After riding 23 different bikes in this class the ktm 390 duke was the best pick and fit and i love it. Glad i went with it. In second was the ducati. I just could not justify an extra 3000.00 u.s.....

[@F4Effort]

I looked into many smaller bikes before ultimately deciding on the KTM 390 Duke. Bought it new (although I'm pretty sure I overpaid the dealer) and I am absolutely thrilled with it, although I do have a few minor problems with it I'll get to in a minute. For new bikes at this pricepoint and class, none of these other bikes are close to the level of technology that's on the KTM, with the TFT display, gear indicator, adjustable ABS, adjustable clutch and brake levers, KTM's in house WP suspension, the LED lights, and throttle by wire. You can even get it with KTM's MyRide, which lets you pair your phone between the bike and your helmet for audio. Plus just my two cents I think it's also by far the best looking, especially in white. This is admitedly the smallest bike I have owned so far, but I was impressed with the punch it had if you really give it gas. Now, to be honest though, I do have some minor complaints. My clutch lever can be moved a little bit up and down while pulling it in, the outside point moves maybe half an inch in total travel. It doesn't really affect operation, but I certainly noticed it when I first started riding. Maybe it's something that can be fixed just by tightening a screw. The second thing is that while both indicators do work, the green arrow on the dash doesn't always come on when the switch is pushed one way or the other. This seems to happen more frequently with the right hand blinkers. Third is the oil pressure light. It will stay on for several seconds after the bike is started when it's already been warmed up (doesn't happen on cold starts), sometimes even for a second or two after I back out of my spot and put it into gear, although I have yet to have it stay on for more than 20 seconds after starting the engine. Last is the ABS light. It, like the oil pressure light, will stay on for a few seconds after the engine is started while already warm, although it shuts off once the bike is put into gear. Have yet to have it come on while I am riding. I personally see these as small issues, and since the bike has less than 200 miles on it, I am not yet concerned about them. One thing I am planning on doing to the bike is, when it comes time to get a new chain/sprockets, gearing it to be a bit taller. I realize that it's a small bike and more shifting will be needed than what I'm used to, coming off a ZX6R, but I personally think that 5th gear for 45mph to stay under 8K rpm is a little rediculous. I asked the dealership about this and they told me that it would not void the KTM warranty, they said "as long as it doesn't have an aftermarket air filter or a non-Akrapovic exhaust". This got way longer than I was planning, so I hope this helped anyone looking at the KTM here, and no matter what you end up getting, remember to enjoy it and pass your test!

Guys please don't fight. We are all human beings and the whole planet is our home. This is about bikes and not whose country is better.

[@hbsupermage]

bmw reliability, damn, i laughed so hard

[@anujanadkat134]

Yes in a factory! Because of us indians you guys are getting it in a cheaper price so hence respect it!

[@TheHomeExpert5]

You guys didn't make much of the comparison in this video, it would have been interesting to talk more about the performance, and I think the price of the Ducati set you off.

[@karthikmalayil]

Watever u say ,at end of the day u still ride bikes made from India.if u cant jst accept tat jst go and manufacture urself..Ooops.u guys still need a 3rd world country for your needs, the so called 1st world countries...shame on you guys..Triumph,BMW,KTM,Royal Enfield etc list of motorcycles made in India

[@jack12345678936]

Pay more to get ur bike not made in a 3rd world country, end of story

[@normanhughedicko4076]

KTM and BMW is the one who invest in India for cost savings

[@uldaricojumawan7035]

Which one is much better BMW G310R or the KTM DUKE 390?? BECAUSE I want to buy after my GRADUATION. Plss tell me so i can choose the better one

[@shivakumartinku508]

go with bmw..... ktm hav quality issues after a yr...

[@rj-yr4ql]

Go with the BMW

[@AnkurVashishtha01]

First of all scrambler is just not made in Italy. That is half the story. You forgot to add Thailand. Secondly, understand the term 'third world countries',get educated and stop being racist. And for the people who are asking Indians to be ready for some humor. Why don't you understand the fact that India has stepped in the performance motorcycle segment. Give it some time and we will see the quality issue as well. And FYI, if the bikes manufactures in India lacks quality, then don't buy it, as simple as that. But remember that budget cut decisions were made by your beloved ducati, bmw ,etc and not by Indians.

[@fredoc9125]

Due a proper tour of that house. You have a power lift, and a mini track, awesome! And people stop being so damm sensitive.

[@LifeOnTwoWheels]

ktm is love ridden the 2017 390 and i have to say what a beautifull machine it is.

[@c.a.marsupial.1282]

Well I'm 62 and bought the Duke 390 2021 model and its pure joy to ride. BMW service in Australia is very poor and they stop making parts for BMW after 12 year's.

[@Fishstycz]

I started in the 60s on 50s... been all the way up through to the big GSs and about 10 years ago, started on my way back down the displacement chart... 650 Dakar and now down to the 390. I think I might just settle there. I rode a demo 310 a while back and was underwhelmed by the performance... I'm on my way to get on the 390 Adv now, and certainly, on paper, it's quite an exciting proposition.

[@mindcave]

Pass on all three. It's the Yamaha MT-03 for the win for me.

[@1990-t1j]

Cool house. Great way of securing the bike. I think the Yamaha MT-03 is the best bike in this category.

[@joshuadine4110]

Ktm has 3 plants. Austria, india and the philippines

[@RR-ie6js]

Ktm is beast when it comes to performance. Love for KTM DUKE

[@TheHomeExpert5]

The most important thing overall is reliability, there are big big big questions concerning the KTM, there are concerns about the maintenance requirements of the Duke at Sea, and then there are the exorbitant parts and labor cost for the BMW. I say, if the KTM is reliable, that would be the one that I would want. But I've heard too much about the engines blowing up.

[@johnDukemaster]

I have no issues at all with KTM. But if somethings goes wrong, there are no problems with KTM when it comes to warranty. A friend of mine got a brand new Super Duke when the engine stopped working. They just swapped!

[@TheHomeExpert5]

@@johnDukemaster so, your friend had a brand new super duke, that needed a new engine. Case closed.

[@johnDukemaster]

@@TheHomeExpert5 Yes, they are really good at taking care of customers!

[@johnDukemaster]

@@TheHomeExpert5 But he did not need a new engine. Instead of taking time and sort things out he received a new bike. Case closed.

[@TheHomeExpert5]

@@johnDukemaster I know of many many people who bought a KTM motorcycle and have gotten the middle finger when it comes to warranty service from ktm. I was in the process of buying a ktm, when the dealer told me that they had to remove the fuel pump from the bike and give it to another customer. I asked when that fuel pump would be back, he told me he didn't know. KTM sucks when it comes to warranty. It sucks when it comes to reliability. Brand new engines should not go bad.

[@OntarioAndrews415]

I sorta kinda don't think the Ducati should have been in this round up with the KTM and BMW. They are in the 300cc category whereas the Ducati is in the 400cc. Granted there isn't really a 400cc category per say. However, I think instead of the Ducati a Honda CB300F should have been there. And yes, it's not as sexy as the Beemer and KTM, but it's a 300cc category bike.

[@ak8105]

love that "presentation" part, nice job!!!

[@avijithalder9215]

I am an Indian, I have been following the bike show for a long time and really like what you guys do , but before saying anything disgusting about any indian automobile co. get some knowledge about them and their markets . Every market differs interms of its target segments needs. Educate yourself before commenting on anything. Indian automobile market is the most rapidly developing market in the world , and look back in history u will find what u guys actually are and what u have done in India ... Shame on you guys ! Shame !! U people should be banned

[@BinnyAndMeena]

KTM is a awesome bike. BMW is made in India and soon Ducati is also being bought by Indian company. So abuse how much ever you want. Sooner or later all this will be manufacture in India. Check my chennal for the KTM stuff.

[@normanhughedicko4076]

Prefer if front 17 inch rims rather than 18.. Ducati should consider a new Monster 400 I would consider BMW and the KTM if its two cylinders

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

Wow, that's it to getting a bike licence in South Africa???!! ...remind me never to ride pillion with you guys :0) Great (part) episode as ever, thanks for posting....TMF

so they teach new riders to ride without the basic gear, helmets, gloves ..etc. good job, must be the no:1 school.

2:38 no I would get one from India or Germany, because Italian is another word of saying it will fall into pieces.

[@nigeljoy]

Being a passenger in Duke is so uncomfortable. I don't want to put my passengers to that torture. So i would go for G310R any day

[@TheHomeExpert5]

I think I'll just get a twelve-year-old to Ducati Monster.

[@asapkiah1668]

It bothers me that for the price the Ducati doesn't have inverted forks

I know these bikes are learner sized but im sick of "reviewers" not even considering the possibility of more experienced riders wanting to own one of these for practicality isseues that are too nauseous to list here.

I'm astounded by how many people get offended over a joke, especially when they've made jokes about pretty much every manufacturer and country to date. I suppose you guys are the same people who hate Top Gear or The Grand Tour, because they don't filter their jokes. On a side note, many of the Indian people who are angry in the comments, are, in their responses, talking crap about the UK, America, Africa, etc... Yet you call them racists, tsk tsk.

[@spmclashes5030]

AiroRider Well we Indians too hate being racist and insulting other brands or nations for that matter. Not all of us are perfect and yes, many Indians do insult other nations and as a matter of fact, we hate such Indians too. For this video, we are abusing the 3 so called "Bike Experts or Bike Journalists" and not the brand or their respective nations. So I hope you understand what I mean. Cheers!

[@swapnilmankame]

Ducati Scramblers are made in THAILAND. BMW g310r is made in india KTMs are made in india. it's fucking pathetic that so called bike journalist/presenters don't know the basic facts. And about where a bike is being manufactured, it has nothing to do with quality standards, those standards are set up by the respective companies and they follow it in a very proper way... calling yourselves "The bike show" and yet you know nothing about the bikes you are riding. Pathetic

[@frankjones3792]

If you watch this and are bothered by the racist slurs...report it....I did...This has no place in the world.

[@Raghav-oq1xo]

How can you joke about a great country like India. With due respect you earn your bread and butter from reviews of bike which is made in India. We have bigger channels than yours in our country. Today you are unsubscribed. Hope you guys learn some etiquette.

[@superwario64]

Raghav46 forza vale by made in india you should understand its just copying the tech and making it in india to reduce the expense lowering quality. nothing to be so proud of boy

[@Raghav-oq1xo]

xfx vizzi xfx hey iam proud because we are growing faster than any other developing country in the world. Bajaj is the Indian company who owns more than 49 percent of shares in KTM and so it's manufactured in India to keep prices low. But that doesn't means it's quality is not good. We are the only country who launches satellites of country like USA, France, Russia, UK and many countries, we launch it in such a less expense simultaneously with great accuracy and engineering. It's all working up fine there. I only wanted to say that made in INDIA doesn't mean that quality is not great.

[@superwario64]

Raghav46 forza vale the quality has gone down alot. india is a retarded place.. why? they focus on making more nuclear weapons and satellites while millions of people are starving, homeless,polluted cities rivers. indians dont even obey the damn traffic rules,the roads are shit. this is not what i call "developing" . first yall should focus on cleaning up the place

[@Raghav-oq1xo]

xfx vizzi xfx ok I'll follow your suggestion. I'll clean my place, hope I make a difference. And yes we are peaceful. We only make nuclear to defend ourselves.

[@vengefulrat3053]

So I've been waiting for you guys to pop up this review you guys did of these three bikes. Now as much as I think these three bikes will all serve a purpose, they aren't really up to scratch, are they? I mean as in what you get. You get three bikes which caters to a certain person. There aren't any super bike variants, no dual purpose variants, unless you mention the Kawasaki Versus X. Anyways, what I would have liked to see in this perticular comparison, was that you guys added the iconic 400s. Sure, the world has moved on to the bigger bikes and now it seems like small is once again making a comeback, especially the 400s, well 300s to 400s. So why didn't you guys compare these bikes to the CBR400 and GSXR 400 and VFR400 and all those classics? Sure, I know parts and price and so on can be a major factor but just as the bike alone, what you can get at that cc, I think the bikes 20 years ago, still blow these new bikes out of the water. The Cbr was known for handling. The VFR for so much power out of such a small engine. All the stuff you want from bigger bikes but for some reason can't ride. The sound of a four cylinder. Fairings, sporty look, sporty riding style and so forth. Well, I would just have liked to see that but now probably too late for that. O well. Was fun watching nonetheless.
