Custom racing machine "Kush" based on the KTM 390 Duke!

Recently updated on February 23, 2022 at 11:07 am

Modified bikes are extremely popular all over the world, and in our opinion it doesn't always have to be a Harley-Davidson or a Royal Enfield, because it is well known that other mothers have pretty daughters who can easily be converted into custom bikes. KTM machines in particular are popular in various markets in Europe and Asia and enjoy a sporty and dynamic reputation. The Austrian motorcycle manufacturer, which is now part of the Indian Bajaj Group, has with the 390 Duke brought an inexpensive, but very rider-oriented bike onto the market, which is particularly popular with young motorcycle enthusiasts. That is also the Indian custom bike manufacturer Rajputana Custom Motorcycles consciously, who has conjured up a real track tool out of the dynamic Austrian, and at the same time all registers of the Motorcycle tunings pulled.

The bike is characterized by an extraordinary design.

The machine that goes by the name of "Kush“Hears has been fundamentally modified, and for example the headlights replaced by a specially made cover with LED lights. From the front, the bike looks a bit like it has traveled straight from the future to the present. The front one Fender was completely dismantled so that the front has a pretty minimalist and futuristic look.

In addition, the one that looks muscular tank a custom made by Rajputanawhich gives the KTM a spectacular look from the side. In addition, the motorcycle also received one at the rear LED rear light, which is especially eye-catching at night. They are also particularly noticeable Upside-down forksthat were painted gold to create a design that is reminiscent of typical café racers. From our point of view, it would be even nicer if the bronze-colored tank harmonized better with the forks, because the coloring is unfortunately not tone on tone. The one is also completely new rear subframe as well as the tiny bench, which can only accommodate one person. So it is not possible to pound the racetrack together with a partner, as there is not enough space.

In order to have full control of the vehicle in every situation, a Brembo brake system was also installed, which lives behind the chic spoke rims on which slicks suitable for the racetrack are fitted. Rain is not the preferred weather of this KTM, because the treadless tires are hopelessly overwhelmed in wet conditions. Nevertheless, we are sure that this custom bike will find a lot of fans and that Rajputana Custom Motorcycles has put an absolute eye-catcher on the bikes.

A 373 cc single cylinder provides propulsion!

The exclusive custom bike is powered by one Single cylinder engine with 373 cubic centimeters of displacement, which is liquid-cooled, and a top performance of 43,5 PS generated. The maximum torque is included 37 Newton meters, so there is always enough power available. The power is transmitted via a sequential six-speed gearbox Slipper clutch as well as a quickshift function that can be used both when upshifting and downshifting. Unfortunately, we have no information on weight and performance, but the engine was taken over unchanged from the KTM 390 Duke and received no modifications.

Our Conclusion to the custom bike called "Kush" from India:

A little variety is good, and it doesn't always have to be a chopper that serves as the starting point for a cool custom bike.
