KTM 890 Adventure R 2021 vs. KTM 990 Duke R 2026

KTM 990 Duke R 2026

The KTM 990 Duke R is a more versatile road bike. Its 947-cm³ twin-cylinder engine delivers powerful, precisely controllable torque from just above idle speed, combining 103 nm of torque with a surprisingly refined running character. The upright, supermoto-style ergonomics and wide handlebars make it a joy to ride on mountain passes, without displaying the nervousness that sometimes characterised earlier Dukes. The brakes, suspension and electronics are all of a high standard. It is therefore the clear choice for everyday use, country roads and fast mountain passes.
