KTM ne connaît pas de retour en arrière et KTM ne connaît pas de pardon. C'est pourquoi la nouvelle 1290 Super Duke R est certes un peu plus maniable que sa devancière, mais aussi un peu plus puissante et rapide. Dès 2500 tours, plus de 100 Nm sont disponibles, le maximum est de 141, la puissance maximale est indiquée à 177 CV. Cela peut être trop, mais pas forcément. L'électronique reste le parachute de secours dans cette catégorie où le développement continue d'avancer à grands pas. KTM a commencé là où il y avait des difficultés, c'est-à-dire la stabilité. Les modifications apportées à la géométrie et au châssis l'ont nettement améliorée, ce qui rend la chevauchée de la bête non seulement plus rapide, mais aussi plus sûre. La maniabilité n'en est pas moins radicale et les gènes du supermotard sont plus visibles que sur n'importe quelle autre moto naked. Il ne peut y avoir qu'une seule Super Duke.
