The KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE R EVO is truly an evolved BEAST. Not only does it share the same technological advances as the KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE R, but it also brings to the fore the intuitive WP Semi-Active Suspension (SAT) technology. Able to automatically adapt its suspension to rider input and road surface conditions, this state-of-the-art suspension system brings a smart experience to the road. The bike is designed, developed and manufactured in Austria.
Although a racing model, the KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE R EVO is designed for rider comfort and control, combining aggressive performance with ergonomic features that allow for a more comfortable and dynamic riding experience. Here are some key aspects of the bike’s ergonomics:
Adjustable handlebars: The height and position of the handlebars are adjustable, allowing riders to adjust their riding position to suit their personal preferences and comfort. This helps ensure optimal control and reduces rider fatigue during longer rides.
Foot Pedal Positioning: The foot pedals are designed for performance, but can also be adjusted for different rider preferences. They provide excellent grip, especially during aggressive cornering, while maintaining a comfortable position.
Seat Design: The saddle is designed to provide a balance between comfort and support. It has a contoured design that supports the rider during performance riding, while reducing pressure points, especially on longer rides.
Semi-Active Suspension: The WP Semi-Active Suspension (SAT) system automatically adapts to different road conditions and rider input, contributing to a smoother and more controlled ride, reducing the impact of rough roads on the rider's body.
Overall, the KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE R EVO balances sport-oriented ergonomics with long-term comfort, making it a motorcycle suitable for both intense riding sessions and longer tours.
