The KTM 990 Super Duke R is a beast of a machine, born from the Austrian manufacturer’s heritage in supermoto racing. Its 75-degree, liquid-cooled V-twin engine roars to life, delivering 115 horsepower and 84 lb-ft of torque in a smooth, linear fashion. The Super Duke R’s chassis is a masterclass in handling and agility, featuring fully adjustable 48 WP forks and a lightweight, chromium molybdenum tubular trellis frame that tips the scales at just 9 kg.
This is not a bike for the faint of heart – it’s designed to devour twisties and carve through corners with precision and authority. The additional steering damper adds to the bike’s already impressive handling capabilities, making it a force to be reckoned with on the track.
But the Super Duke R is not just a track-day specialist – it’s also a road-going machine that’s more than capable of eating up the miles. Its comfortable ergonomics and forgiving suspension make it an ideal choice for long highway stints, and the fuel-injected engine provides seamless power delivery in all riding conditions.
As the final piece of the puzzle, the forged Marchesini wheels shave precious weight from the bike’s rotating mass, taking the Super Duke R’s performance to new heights. Whether you’re carving through canyons or cruising down the highway, this bike is an absolute blast to ride – and a true testament to KTM’s reputation for building some of the most exhilarating machines on two wheels.
