The 1290 Super Duke R is the third generation of KTM’s big bore naked bike, with a massive jump up from 990 to 1301cc. Team Orange engineers have boosted the iconic 75-degree V-Twin LC8 powerplant to its largest displacement yet by increasing the stoke by 2mm and the bore by 3mm. inside the larger cylinders new forged F1-type pistons are 47 grams lighter than those in the RC8 superbike. DLC-coated cam followers reduce friction in the redesigned DOHC heads. Twin sparkplugs in each reshaped combustion chamber are fired independently for a smoother and more efficient burn. On the MotoUSA Dyno the Duke belted out an impressive 150.7 rear-wheel horsepower and 92.4 lb-ft of torque; impressive numbers for a naked bike for sure. On the pavement, power gains resulted in a 11.10 second quarter-mile at 134 mph.
