Not surprising considering it doesn't have the tech pack unlocked... huge oversight literally killing the feel of the bike. Basically neutered without it.
I recently purchased a Stage 2 for my s1000XR deleting the cat. It transformed the bike completely. More power everywhere, no more jerky throttle at low speed, QS is much more precise and the reduced temp was well worth the price of admission. It should really come from the factory that way. These current Euro standards neuter bikes so much nowadays.
I have the EU and I'm having a hard time trying to wheelie this thing, from what I've seen in videos, this thing should wheelie almost in every gear, but I have it in Performance mode, with MSR in 3-4 and AWM off and I have to push it really hard to take the front wheel a couple of inches off the ground. any idea what am I doing wrong, or what settings should I set it to, to free the beast? thanks in advanced
Do you have dyno results of SD's with the rotty airbox and such mods? And how would that compare to this bike from your experience? I have a '19 1290R and i'm looking around for flash options, what you are offering looks very interesting.
My 2021 1290 R is stock and wheelies very easy in 2nd and even 3rd gear without clutch. That and it looks like it's wobbling more than it should. Maybe the steering is out of spec
Same. I don't understand how he managed to not wheelie this bike. And that wobble... Stop griping the bar handle like it will fly. Mine can wheelie in 4th gear over little bump without clutch and 100% stock.
the owner didn't purchase the tech pack so can't turn off anti-wheelie mode xD. When he said the front wheel is "hovering" that's the wheelie control kickign in and allowing it to stay maybe 6 inches off the ground.
So does my GT (stock with an SC slip on). I wish the tune would quicken up the quick shifter. Stock it is so slow I would call it an auto-shifter, not a quick shifter because I can clutchless shift way faster than that consistently and a quicjshifter shold be faster (more seamless pull) than clutchless. I would trade that feature for pops any day.
@@jadeviper1290 why do you think the tech pack is so good? i got it on my 890 and i think that there is not really a difference. i dont want to buy it for my 1290 now.
Hey boss. I have a 2023 Super Duke GT that I'm modding to be a super sport tourer. I've done a muffler and decat pipe because the factory cat was cooking my right foot. The decat pipe also runs quite hot which bothers me. Will your flash tune fix it (I'm assuming its running a bit lean)? I'm not looking to be over-sold on a product, that's my primary issue is cooling off the exhaust. Some improved throttle response and decel pops would be nice to have, but the #1 reason I'm looking for a tune is to get the bike to run cooler. PS I swear I uploaded one of your tunes back in my 990 Super Duke days
A 1000 rpm increase on red line is massive… the piston speed increase on those huge pistons means the loads on the bearings, rods and cap bolts will be extreme… hope the engine stays together. Not something I would do.
How anyone gets away with going faster than the speed limit on a bike blows my mind. I go 10mph over and im pulled over. Just got pulled over for the second time. Pissed
It’s because the bike is as long as a hayabusa bro.. 58.5 inches it’s over 2 inches longer than the average bike.. nothing is more tame about the engine.. it’s length is just trading wheelies for acceleration
@@kmfiz I own the bike.. I have track and tech.. there’s no difference in power between the two modes.. just throttle response. I’m a placebo effect because when you’re only at 60% throttle it’s actually giving you 100%
@@garyparietti5124 I have the bike as well, 2020 model. Yes, throttle response, I know there’s no change in peak power, but on such a torquey V-twin, throttle response is huge. I’m just saying there’s a big difference in how the bike behaves (or misbehaves;) in Track mode vs sport.
@@garyparietti5124 The main difference is the ability to turn off wheelie control, and you probably know already this bike will easily lift through the first 3 gears even stock.
@@jadeviper1290 wouldn’t call it easy.. it takes a hard clutch up in 3rd and a soft clutch up in 2nd.. I’ve owned many other bikes that are easier to wheelie.. the bike is long
@@BT_Moto too bad this bike never came to the Philippines. I think i’d like this because of the low and mid range plus the fast handling, currently on an mt10 sp and i got your bt moto flash, also like the sf for three chassis and ergos.
Looks like no track pack and your wheelie control is always on hence the wheel not coming up, even on my one you have to set it up for wheelies, tc needs shut off or it shuts power at back if you try to wheelie. When you have an animal of a bike like this you better believe you have to control the throttle That flash is letting a lot of fuel through into the exhaust, did the flash shut down wheelie control i wonder
The Anti Wheelie is On and this feature comes stock and it cannot be turned off unless buying a package from ktm. Then it will go wheelie even in 5th gear.
I have a 2021 and I love it, but I did the Trackpack before I left the dealer on day one ☝️ he needs the quick shifter and the other things that comes with it 🫡
Definitely, the bike is so neutered without it. The owner constantly bags on the bike saying its not fast and doesn't wheelie when it basically has training wheels on xD
I’ve owned the gen2, and a gen3, I’ve found this is fairly typical if holding too tight on the bars/ not relaxed enough. It’s a little surprising that when it’s stock it’s struggling to lift the front. I’m fairly stocky, and both of my gens will lift in 4th if sitting upright, and brutally lifts the front in 3rd
After owning two of these bikes@@SteveC-Shaman I find it easier said than done. The torque on these things are immense and so much fun. I naturally find myself clamping on to not fall off the back lol.
Body position makes a huge difference. My 690 SMs and 1290s all were susceptible unless leaning aggressively forward at the waist. It seemed sitting more upright was unweighting the front too much, and even producing a "sail" effect that unweighted the front even more. Obviously a light grip on the bars is a massive factor too. A tight grip makes head shake worse. Adding preload to the rear can help as well.
My gen 3 does not slap around like this at all, under full power sometimes, but no were near as bad as this. I have spent quite a bit of time setting it up though. looking forward to tuning mine like this. Good job BT
What is the point of tuning the bike that has it's basic features locked? What do you mean "no quick shifter." On gen 3 Superduke?! You've got to be kidding! So you spend thousands on tuning and skimp a few hundreds on unlocking performance package?
No, it's the geometry of the bike. It's a little longer than it really should be but is more or less eliminated by holding the bars lightly. Most of the headshake is the rider. The geometry is fixed two ways: raising rear ride height or if you have a little money you can put a SuperDukeD adjustable triple on it and pull the wheel in a bit... more of a racing requirement, I find the stock bike handles quite well. Forcing myself to hold the bars lightly made me a better rider as well.
Maybe so but most don't ride flat just saying a timed pull low revs in high gear to see pick up from low revs which most would use or maybe another ktm side by side comparison.. Great vids tho😂
??? the first superduke looks like shit in comparison, even the 2nd gen duke is miles above. that old headlight is so ugly, the new one is unique and aggresive, the body panels are sharp and stylish, the frame looks better on 2nd gen but the performance gain of making it a stress member is worth it. what are you smoking lol
Anti wheelie was still on it can come up 3rd gear easy stock
It looks like the anti wheelie still holding you back

Not sure about the US model, but in the EU you need to have the track pack to turn wheelie control off and it will wheelie in third...

@@BT_Moto What next video? There is no video about Superduke Track Pack
Will you guys ever make a tune for the 890 Duke?
Still trying to find a shop to install my header on my ZH2 before I use my BT tuner. Hopefully you guys can make a ZH2 before after video 🤘
Great video man.. glad to come across the channel.
Awesome video! Monster Bike!
Wondering if allowing the motor to go a full 1000 rpms over factory redline is good thing for motor longevity.
We haven’t seen or heard of any detrimental effects to the longevity of the engine, with our raised limiter.
Good video, great bike. So many riders don't know that their KTM needs a track pack to reach its potential.
We review that on the next video

Thank you lol
@@BT_Motoman do you have the stock steering damper on superduke in this video? Hows is it
@@KTMoto_pher wouldn’t hurt to be stiffer
With MSR on there’s not much engine braking.
As far as increasing the red line, I wouldn’t want to do that, just increase the mid range torque.
You can request a stock RPM limiter, if you’d like

Rear preload and SuperDuke’s linkage rear ride height change = no headshake
That is tires problem had the same shake on B S22 but after going Micheline power5 the shake is gone
I have a 2020 KTM Super Adventure R, slip-on exhaust, and KN air filter. Does Brent Tune have anything for this combination?
What camera are you using here?
that mapping on the dyno can be placed on a usb and shared!
Does this tune include throttle mapping? Like actually giving 100% throttle at 6k rpm instead of 60% throttle.
How would this effect warranty? Very tempting
You can flash back to stock anytime
Glad my Gen1 SDR doesn't have any head shake at speed. Can anything be done for that on Kay's Duke ?
Yeap, relax a little and don't hold on too tight.
Mine did that, got the suspension dialed in. Whala no more head shake!
