KTM 990 Super Duke R (2011)

The 990 Super Duke R is the undisputed king of the naked bike world, delivering a potent 125hp punch from its newly homologated LC8 V-twin engine. This razor-sharp powerplant is perfectly complemented by a trellis frame that exudes agility and precision, thanks to its R-series geometry and lightweight construction.

The result is a motorcycle that defies categorization, with the ability to devour both the twisties and the straights with equal aplomb. Its advanced suspension and braking package, complete with Brembo radial four-pot front callipers, ensures that the 990 Super Duke R remains firmly planted and in control at all times.

Whether carving up the local track or carving a path through the city streets, the 990 Super Duke R is the ultimate riding experience, delivering weightless agility, incisive precision, and an intoxicating rush of adrenaline with every twist of the throttle.
