790 DUKE

The 2025 KTM 790 Duke—aptly nicknamed "The Scalpel"—continues its reign in the middleweight naked-bike segment, blending sharp styling with performance-focused engineering. Retaining its aggressive streetfighter silhouette, this Duke features subtly refined bodywork and updated graphics for a fresh yet unmistakable road presence. It remains unmistakably bold, compact, and ready to slice through segments of traffic with ease.​​

 Ride Comfort & Everyday Usability Practicality meets performance with ergonomics designed to accommodate a broad rider spectrum: the seat stands at a manageable 825 mm, with upright ergonomics and spacious legroom contributing to comfortable long-distance riding. The bike remains light and narrow for confident tipping and carving, while still offering a level of presence that feels planted and ready. A four-year warranty adds peace of mind alongside its street-sharp performance.
Punchy Parallel-Twin Power & Evolved Electronics Driven by a 799 cc LC8c parallel-twin engine, the Duke delivers around 105 hp and 87 Nm of torque in most markets, while some European models offer a 95 hp variant that can be further restricted to meet A2 licensing requirements. The engine feeds through a smooth-shifting six-speed gearbox, alongside modern features like ride-by-wire throttle, cruise control, selectable ride modes (Rain, Street, Sport, plus optional Track), traction control, and cornering ABS. Enhanced safety tech includes a configurable anti-wheelie system, now offering six adjustment levels.
Advanced Chassis & Revised Dashboard Built around a lightweight chromoly steel trellis frame with a cast-aluminium subframe and swingarm, the 790 Duke boasts responsive and agile handling. It retains WP Apex suspension—fully adjustable and famed for its precision delivery. Braking is backed by J.Juan calipers with dual 300 mm front discs, supported by switchable Supermoto ABS. For 2025, visibility and operation get a boost with a larger 5-inch TFT dashboard, offering Demo Mode, telemetry display, and enhanced switchgear—bringing superbike-level usability to the naked class.
