The new frame of the 390 Duke consists of a steel trellis main frame and a pressure die-cast aluminum subframe, which improves the riding dynamics and handling of the bike. The new engine is a 399cc liquid-cooled four-stroke that delivers 44.2 horsepower and 28.8 lb-ft of torque, which is an increase from the previous 373cc engine that produced 42.9 horsepower and 27.2 lb-ft of torque.

The new 390 Duke also boasts a new 5-inch bonded glass TFT dashboard that adapts to different riding modes and conditions. The dashboard is paired with a new switch cube that allows easy interaction with all vehicle functions, including smartphone connectivity. The bike also comes with standard Cornering MTC, which is a traction control system that adjusts to the lean angle of the bike. Additionally, the bike has a new Track Mode that transforms the dashboard graphics to be more race-focused, enlarges the rev counter, shows the lap timer, gear display, and preferred rider aid settings. The bike also has a new Launch Control feature that helps the rider achieve optimal acceleration from a standstill.
