KTM 990 Super Duke 2006

KTM 990 Super Duke 2006

You can still enter corners precisely or turn the bike on. You can still correct every radius with ease and at will. The Superduke is still more fun than having fun in your lederhosen. And you can still take on anyone with it.

High-performance device

extreme potential - not fully achievable.

Geometry

suboptimal ride comfort

design of the instruments.

The RC8 from KTM has matured into a good motorbike. Unfortunately, the maturing process has taken a little too long. The engine characteristics are good, the chassis as well and the bike is great to ride both on the country road and on the race track.

Well-tuned suspension elements

fairly agile

acceptable brakes

positive cornering.

Performance could be higher

primarily designed for country roads.
