KTM 1290 Super Duke R 2020

KTM 1290 Super Duke R 2020

The KTM 1290 Super Duke R retains its brute character for 2022 if you take the beast by the horns. But the Hyper Naked from Mattighofen is also convincing in everyday use and presents itself as a mature all-round companion. Small details could use a little love, but nothing that spoils the positive overall impression of the 1290 Super Duke R.

accessible handling

fully adjustable and stable chassis
