2025 KTM 1390 Super Duke R Evo, now in its fourth generation, replaces the outgoing 1290 Super Duke R Evo and pushes the limits even further. It’s still every bit the beast it’s known to be, but this time it hits harder, feels sharper, and somehow manages to be even more refined. The engine’s bigger, has intelligent features like WP Semi-Active Suspension Technology (SAT), the electronics are smarter, and the whole thing just feels like it’s been dialed in with serious intent, and it’s built in Austria.
