After riding his friend’s 2022 KTM 390 Adventure, Daniel decided to take the leap and get a 2025 390 Adventure for himself
Daniel Nadar is a senior IT consultant who, in his spare time, enjoys touring on his new 2025 KTM 390 Adventure. We had a chance to speak to him during the KTM Pro-XP event in Mumbai, and this is what he had to say about his experience with the brand and KTM Pro-XP.
The Start
Daniel fondly remembers the time when he started motorcycling, for him the passion for two-wheelers started since the time he learnt how to ride. They say four-wheels move the body, but two-wheels move the soul, and this is absolutely true in Daniel’s case. He said, “Bikes keep me moving even when the traffic stops, and this brings great excitement to ride”.
Since beginning his journey into motorcycling, Daniel has owned multiple bikes. His last bike was a cruiser, and he had done many tours on it. But now he has decided to make the switch to a 2025 KTM 390 Adventure.
The Switch
The decision to switch to a KTM bike came after Daniel went down to India Bike Week 2024 in Goa. For the trip he had borrowed his friend’s 2022 KTM 390 Adventure, and completed the Mumbai to Goa trip in less than 8 hours. According to him “That was the craziest part, I got very excited and felt very confident on that bike”, and this was what motivated him to get the new 2025 KTM 390 Adventure.
Over the years, Daniel has ridden many bikes, mostly borrowed from friends. When we asked him what made KTM different, he said “What I wanted the most was power and performance, and KTM was what gave me proper performance”.
KTM Pro-XP Experience
This was the first time Daniel has come for a KTM Pro-XP event, and being able to experience the 2025 KTM 390 Adventure offroad was quite enjoyable. One of the changes that KTM Pro-XP has brought is giving Daniel the confidence that he can ride offroad without dropping the bike.
He also said that he will be looking more into off-roading, and as a beginner, he is always open to learning from the experts. Another thing which he spoke about is how you can always make time for your passion, regardless of what you do. He said, “People from IT think they don’t have time”. He further added, “See the thing is, it doesn’t matter where you are, if you have the will, if you really want to follow your passion, then you have to come out and that’s where KTM Pro-XP helps me”.
