Already at the top of its game, for 2019 the mighty KTM 1290 SUPER DUKE R receives a graphics update to keep it looking as sharp as it performs. This machine offers a unique technical layout with an awesome engine in a perfectly balanced chassis that delivers seemingly endless riding enjoyment in any situation and at any pace while distinguishing itself with exceptional levels of safety, not least because of cutting-edge high-tech solutions.

With an awesome 177 hp of maximum power, it wants riders to go fast yet stay in control: the wide, low handlebar, the Brembo monobloc brakes, the MSC including cornering ABS, competition-developed WP suspension, the optional, two-way Quickshifter+, the multifunctional TFT display and the LED headlight.

The optional “Track Pack” includes launch control, spin adjuster, three throttle response settings and anti-wheelie off function. Then there is the optional “Performance Pack” to include motor slip regulation (MSR) and the Quickshifter+. READY TO RACE, it is equipped with the RACE ON transponder key and the KTM MY RIDE smartphone and audio player integration.

Further additions to the KTM PowerParts range also provides riders with more options to intensify this incredible motorcycle, by enhancing and personalizing it in their vision – whether it is boosting aspects such as performance, practicality or style.

New for 2019, two new graphics – black or white – are the finishing touch to a super naked that is not all boast but definitely all Beast.
