Pros and Cons in comparison

KTM 1390 Super Duke R EVO 2024

The KTM 1390 Super Duke R EVO proves that it cuts an exceptional figure both on the race track and in everyday urban riding. Its impressive combination of power, comfort and technology makes it a first-class choice for riders who don't want to compromise between adrenaline and everyday practicality. The semi-active suspension, flexible ergonomics and advanced engine control ensure that this bike, with its brute power, is always confident, fun and actually quite easy to ride. This overall package doesn't cost little either, even compared to other Hyper Nakeds. However, with the large V2 engine and the associated engine characteristics, the 1390 Super Duke R also offers a unique riding experience.

Huge V2 with endless power and grunt across the entire torque curve, yet uncomplicated and easy to control thanks to modern electronics

Very powerful, easy to modulate brakes

Sporty ergonomics with a front-wheel focus that favours hang-off, but also allows for pushy riding

Semi-active suspension with great reponsiveness and a wide spread between comfort and sport settings

State-of-the-art electronic systems on board

Nice sound from the outside, but the rider doesn't notice much of it

Quickshifter and co. could be on board as standard for the high purchase price
