KTM 990 Duke 2024 Experiences and Expert Review

Poky

A proud mid-range Duke is aiming for the crown of the segment. With the 990 Duke, KTM has taken a huge step forward in terms of stability, quality, ergonomics and options. The engine can unleash its brute potential, but thanks to the over-complete electronics, even a less experienced rider can handle the 990 safely. The brakes and chassis work at a high, but not perfect level, so there is still room for an R version. All in all, a great naked bike and an enrichment for the market.

Great engine with linear power development

ergonomics suitable for almost everyone

electronics equipment is top of the class

agile yet stable in long radii

high quality workmanship and materials

great quickshifter (for an extra charge)

Some must-haves at extra cost

high price

brake requires manual force
