2024 KTM 390 Adventure, 2024 KTM 1390 Super Duke R EVO

The KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE R EVO is truly an evolved BEAST. Not only is it all-new for 2024, but it also brings intuitive WP Semi-Active Suspension Technology (SAT) to the fore. Being able to automatically adapt its suspension to the rider's input or the road surface, it brings intelligence to the tarmac and into the hunt.

Features may include:

• Adjustability

Simply put, when wrestling a BEAST like the KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE R EVO, fine tuning and adjustability are key. Not only are all the shifting and braking controls fully adjustable - riders also have the option for a reverse shift pattern and shift lever throw.

• Colorways & Graphics

Looking back while blasting its way into the future, the 2024 KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE R EVO wears its new colors as a homage to THE BEASTS that came before it. Drawing from a 30-year-old bloodline, the iconic Orange colorway is inspired by its ancestral KTM 990 SUPER DUKE colors from as far back as 2005.

The tank is angled slightly outwards, providing more support under braking, as well as better contact while knee down. The handlebar is also lower for improved control without compromising comfort.

• Seat

Performance-focused, but still comfortable for all-day riding, the KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE R EVO is designed to be track-capable one second, and a real-world passenger motorcycle the next. For that reason, the seat is made to be ultimately usable in all scenarios. At 32.8 in (834 mm), it's the perfect height for aggressive track work, but low enough to provide easy access and comfort. The pillion seat wasn't forgotten here either, making it equally as comfortable for longer rides.

• Frame

The frame also received a few minor tweaks to compensate for the updated engine, gearbox and larger fuel tank. The frame u
