KTM 1290 Super Duke GT 2021

The Super Duke GT definitely focuses on the "sport" in the sport tourer, but it can nevertheless also be used passably in touring mode. From the chassis to the seat, it is clearly on the harder side, but it makes up for this with great ergonomics, plenty of space in the saddle and lush factory equipment. Sporty riders in particular will enjoy the powerful engine and the precise, smooth handling. It may not be suitable for comfort-conscious cruisers, but those who can do without a bit of cosiness and in return enjoy the radical character will have no problem going on long journeys with it. The important points, such as sufficient range, wind protection and payload, are also fulfilled.

Very potent engine with massive power

Extremely precise chassis

Agile handling

Well-controlled brakes

Ok wind protection

Windshield easily adjustable

Top ergonomics, even for tall riders

Long range

Ample equipment as standard
