2027 KTM 990 Duke

THE SNIPER
Hitting every target with devastating accuracy, the all-new KTM 990 DUKE brings unmatched levels of precision to the street. Packing 123 HP and 103 Nm into an all-new frame, with adjustable WP APEX suspension and highly tuned electronics to boot, this - put simply - is the lightest, sharpest, most performance focused mid-class NAKED motorcycle to ever wear the DUKE nameplate. Precision and setup go hand-in-hand. In this case, 5-click adjustability on both the WP APEX 43 mm front fork and the WP APEX rear shock provide the ideal setup for maximum attack, while an adjustable handlebar and levers ensure the perfect posture for hitting the bullseye, everytime. An all-new 5'' bonded glass TFT dashboard is upgraded with he latest graphic and information 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 also works in conjunction with optional KTMConnect, which connected with your smartphone to the dash to access navigation, audio and calls. A USB-C connection is also available for charging your smart device. Purposefully NAKED devoid of any clutter but packed with attitude. Wicked at standstill, and imposing on the move, the KTM 990 DUKE debuts an all new look for DUKE, boasting aggressive lines and design elements that shout POWER! This new design is further set off with two unique colorway options of Black and Orange, celebrating 30 years of DUKE. An all-new, lightweight LED headlight design adds to the KTM 990 DUKE's menacing look while turning night to day. With daytime running lights that automatically adjust in intensity according to the ambient light conditions, and automatic low beam that stays illuminated for a moment after the ride is done, not only do the LEDs on KTM 990 DUKE burn a hole into the darkness - it is smart too. Of course, this isn't the first time the DUKE nameplate and 990 have been seen together. However, this machine is a completely different powerplant. Nestled into the all-new frame is a 947 cc LC8c parallel-twin engine, pumping out 123 HP and 103 Nm. Not only powerful, it is also the most compact twin in class, adding to the KTM 990 DUKE's nimble handling characteristics. More aggressive camshaft profiles and longer valve openings result in improved rideability, while a wider radiator with optimized airflow ensures things stay cool. A new exhaust system rounds off this powerhouse package. Configurable with up to 5 different ride modes, the KTM 990 DUKE is ready to dominate just about any eventuality. In the default STREET setting, riders have full power, traction control, and limited front wheel lift, with easy throttle response. SPORT steps the experience up with sharper throttle control and some wheel slip, while RAIN mode does what it says on the box, providing maximum traction and reduced power in wet conditions. The optional PERFORMANCE and TRACK modes crank the KTM 990 DUKE all the way to 11, providing enhanced rider customization and focused sport riding. Toggle the optional TRACK mode, and the KTM 990 DUKE goes from a no-holds-barred NAKED street motorcycle to an all-out apex-brawling race machine. TRACK mode allows you to take full control of rear wheel traction with a 10-level slip control, as well as the sharpest throttle response possible. Want more?
