With its streetfighter 1390 Super Duke R EVO, which retails for Rs 22.96 lakh (ex-showroom), KTM has made a huge splash in India. With this new model, KTM enters the Indian premium motorbike market. The 1390 Super Duke R is equipped with a powerful 1,350 cc twin-cylinder engine and sharp styling. Sharp design and a potent 1,350 cc twin-cylinder engine are features of the 1390 Super Duke R.
Features and Design
This year, the 1390 Super Duke R got a significant update that included better functionality and a new design. It now resembles other naked bike models from KTM, like the 990 Duke. The bike has redesigned winglets and fuel tank shrouds for improved aerodynamics, and the front has a vertically stacked LED headlamp with new DRLs. The cover for the subframe is smaller, which gives the bike a very compact and aggressive look. The 1390 Super Duke R and the 1290 Super Duke R seem to have identical frames. An upgraded mono-shock at the back and new, fully adjustable 48mm WP front forks have been added to the suspension. The 1390 Super Duke R EVO model has a semi-active suspension system with real-time damping control using magnetic valves.
Five suspension modes
Auto, Comfort, Rain, Street, and Sport—as well as automated weight-management changes are available to customers. The bike also boasts an anti-dive function to tighten up the front suspension under severe braking, as well as a ‘factory start’ feature that changes rear preload and riding height for optimum launch performance.
A 1,350cc LC8 V-twin engine under
the seat of the 1390 Super Duke R produces 188 horsepower and 145 Nm of torque. It is coupled with a slip-and-assist clutch and a 6-speed gearbox. Additionally, the bike has a “cam shift” system that improves engine performance by introducing variable valve timing. Brembo Stylema monoblock calipers, including a 320 mm disc up front and a 240 mm disc down back, are used for braking on the 1390 Super Duke. The bike has a 5-inch TFT screen, engine brake control, cruise control, KTMConnect, adjustable wheelie control, and five riding modes. It has traction control, slide control, launch control, and lean-sensitive ABS for safety.
