Unquestionably, the KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE R EVO is a beast.
Featuring user-friendly WP Semi-Active Suspension Technology (SAT).
It adds intelligence to the tarmac and the hunt with its ability to autonomously adjust its suspension based on the rider’s input or the condition of the route
30 YEARS OF DUKE
Colourways & Graphics
Looking back while blasting its way into the future, the 2024 KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE R EVO wears its new colours as a homage to THE BEASTS that came before it.
Drawing from a 30-year-old bloodline, the iconic Orange colourway is inspired by its ancestral 990 SUPER DUKE colours from as far back as 2005.

Bodywork
When you’re naked, you have nothing to hide.
Lower, meaner and more muscular, the 1390 SUPER DUKE R EVO bristles with an all-new tank design, new aero winglets and a predatory LED headlight, with a sleeker, more aggressive stance.
Engine
Boasting the latest and fully revised version of the bellowing LC8 V-twin engine, the 1390 SUPER DUKE R EVO is a torque-hungry, epically powerful, and exciting BEAST
With a near 1:1 power-to-weight ratio, a power output of 190 Hp, and 145 Nm of torque with a READY TO RACE weight of 201 kg – with EURO 5+ homologation – the KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE R EVO turns the planet on its axis rather than riding upon it.
LED Headlight
Burning a deep hole into the darkness is an all-new, predatory LED headlight giving an even meaner look.
With signature daytime running lights that automatically adjust in intensity according to the ambient light conditions, an automatic low beam that stays illuminated for a few seconds after the ride is done, and a welcoming headlight animation display when turned on – the warning is clear.
Telemetry Screen & Lap Timer
A new telemetry screen can be found in the optional TRACK Mode.
Here, riders can keep an eye on lean angles, G-forces, and an all-new lap timer function.
When selecting TRACK Mode, the Lap Timer is visualized in the display, with the rider starting or stopping the time by clicking the high beam button.
TFT Display & Connectivity
The 5″ bonded glass TFT dashboard is upgraded with the latest graphics, information and software, making it faster, easier to navigate and designed to give riders faster access to the various features of the bike with far fewer clicks.
The TFT dash, also works in conjunction with optional KTMconnect, which connects your smartphone to the dash to access navigation, audio and calls. A USB-C connection is also available for charging your smart device.
Track Mode
Dare to choose TRACK Mode, and the 1390 SUPER DUKE R EVO goes from a rip-roaring street fiend to an all-out track destroyer.
The readability of the TFT is improved, icons and key data displayed larger, and any unnecessary secondary information is removed from view.
Here, riders can also toggle Anti-wheelie on or off, with Launch Control available for the perfect start off the grid. Naturally, no cruise control and no KTMconnect are available in this Mode – Because in TRACK Mode, cruising is not an option.
3rd Gen Semi-Active Suspension
The 1390 SUPER DUKE R EVO is fitted with the latest generation of WP Semi-Active Technology (SAT).
It boasts credentials like being the most advanced suspension system on the market, featuring electronically controlled magnetic valves for variable damping and providing a wide range of adjustability – from maximum comfort to track-ready stiffness and support – manually or automatically.
SAT Forks
Completely new Open Cartridge design, this third-generation Semi-active technology takes things another level.
The target was to provide a more precise and consistent damping behaviour at higher frequencies but still maintain all the advantages of the damping range offered by an electric valve.
The result: 750 g lighter than the 2023 model forks, more effective with the ability to process and respond quicker.
SAT Rear Shock
The WP APEX SAT shock absorber has a newly developed Semi-Active valve with DCC.
Additionally, a new sensor in the shock base measures both stroke travel and acceleration providing a more precise valve actuation.
The automatic pre-load adjuster features a stroke sensor which also enables a self-adjustment system.
The system can measure, rider and pillion load, road surface and rider input and ensure the ultimate riding experience of street, or track.
The optional SUSPENSION PRO package allows for even more adjustment when it comes to the suspension.
It adds two additional suspension damping modes, namely TRACK and PRO, with three auto-levelling preload settings, as well as the ability to turn Anti-Dive mode on or off.
This also adds a Factory Start option, inspired by the launch device from the KTM RC16 factory machine. Here, the rear shock preload is automatically reduced to lower the rear when coming to a standstill.
This allows for increased straight line stability and loads weight on the rear wheel to better launched off the line.
Wheels and Tyres
Fitted as standard with new lightweight, MICHELIN Power GP rubber.
Thanks to the dual compound technology, these tyres provide enhanced grip both on straight-line acceleration and more importantly, at lean-angle.
Not only do they promise exceptions to track performance, but they offer outstanding road manners too in both wet and dry conditions.
Brakes
With all that forward thrust available, coming to a stop requires some serious firepower. Upfront, 4-piston Brembo Stylema monobloc calipers are now supported by BREMBO’s MCS radial brake master cylinder which allows for variable distance and ratio adjustment.
The combination ensures ultimate control and maximum braking performance. The front calipers grip a set of 320 mm floating discs, while the rear makes use of a twin-piston floating caliper paired with a 240 mm disk.
Additionally, the clutch now matches the brake components, all-new Brembo clutch cylinder feature a self-venting system which eliminates the need to bleed the hydraulic system.
