O que poderia ser melhor do que obter ainda mais potência e binário numa já potente moto naked! A antecessora, a R 1200 R, com os seus 125 cv e Newton metros de binário, já podia ser conduzida de forma muito desportiva, mas a R 1250 R alargada, agora com 136 cv e uns enormes 143 Newton metros, leva a potência do boxer ao seu pico atual. O que a R 1250 R tem de especial, tal como a sua antecessora, é o facto de, graças à vasta gama de acessórios, poder convencer também em passeios. O novo motor com controlo de válvulas ShiftCam não é apenas mais potente, mas também mais refinado. O chassis e os travões são igualmente convincentes e a posição do assento é agradavelmente direita, permitindo uma vasta gama de estilos de condução, desde o arranque desportivo até aos passeios de longa distância.
KTM 1290 Super Duke R 2017

A KTM é e continua a ser a moto naked mais brutal do mercado. A posição de assento vertical combinada com a potência selvagem da V2 fazem-na parecer mais brutal do que é no papel. Foi melhorada precisamente nos seus pontos mais fracos. O motor funciona agora de forma mais suave, o assistente de mudança de velocidades proporciona calma na fase de aceleração e o chassis foi melhorado. Continua a gostar mais da perseguição selvagem do que da alta velocidade em curva em curvas longas.
