Only a few days remain until the official unveiling of the new KTM 990 Duke R, set for Thursday, October 31st.
Although the manufacturer from Mattighofen has yet to release any official images or details, several hints provide insights into what can be expected from this new model.
According to reports from Motorrad Online, registration with the relevant German authorities indicates an output of 94.94 kW (approximately 128 hp) and 103 Nm of torque from an LC8c twin-cylinder engine with a displacement of 947 cubic centimeters.
The bike is expected to weigh under 200 kg and will likely feature fully adjustable WP suspension (a brand within the same group as KTM) along with Brembo brake components. The frame is tubular.
Last summer, the KTM 990 Duke R took part in a Super Hooligans race in the United States, showcasing an orange-painted frame, as well as a unique exhaust that distinguishes it from the standard 990 Duke.
