KTM's current On-Track and Off-Track performance, their absolute zero flying f*** given attitude towards motorcycling development is showing in their current line of products. KTMs always stood out as the wild child in any mix you put their motorcycle to. Honestly, I don't think this is still the end game, because KTM might just pull yet another demented rabbit out of their hat to ruffle (and borderline bully) the competition around.
That pretty much sums up the KTM attitude for street bikes. Honestly, there was no need for this bike. But they made it anyway! Lol 😃😃 And yes, you are right, they can do it again.
Somebody rode the 1290R and said its slow? Who rode it, Marquez? Bagnaia? But seriously, I too had conceived the name 1390R years ago, but my intention was not that it go even faster. The intention was more to have a naked version of Hayabusa, just lighter in weight & with good frame dynamics, and so. As for endgame, there's no endgame I think. It makes less power than Streetfighter, one day it might make more, with around the same torque. But surely, it is far past the endgame w.r.t what you actually need for a public road, plus a little trackday here and there.
Hello kris, am Ashwin from India, used to see and read your videos and reviews on xbhp and your blog way back in 2010. Especially loved your experiences on the R1. Have booked the super Duke here in India, launch,they say is next month and delivery by November. Am Dilly-dayling between the 890 R and super Duke. Need your advice. Thanks
Hello, just wanted to know which bike to buy , super Duke or the 890 R here in India. Have booked the super Duke but it seems to be a overkill for the roads. On the other hand it will have a different road presence and exclusivity. Which one do you recommend?

I believe the R stands for Rocketship.
True! That R goes beyond what we thought that R was for.

Nobody:
KTM: "Let's make the Super Duke bigger and stronger!"
Instead of riDICulous we call it reCOCKulous? I feel like that would be way too fast for me. Although I like the euphoria without drugs lol
Lol! 😃😃
