2026 KTM 990 DUKE R – THE NEXT EVOLUTION OF THE SUPERMOTO-INSPIRED STREETFIGHTER

The 2026 KTM 990 DUKE R is engineered to deliver raw street performance with uncompromising precision. Built around a 947cc parallel-twin producing 127.84 PS and 103 Nm of torque, the DUKE R brings aggressive acceleration, broad midrange power, and razor-sharp throttle response into a lightweight, purpose-built naked platform.

Its Chromium-Molybdenum steel frame uses the engine as a stressed member, keeping mass centralized while increasing chassis rigidity and rider feedback. Combined with fully adjustable WP APEX suspension front and rear, the 990 DUKE R is designed to attack canyon roads, dominate urban riding, and thrive when pushed hard.

With dual radially mounted four-piston front brakes, a sub-180 kg dry weight, and aggressive geometry, the 990 DUKE R carries KTM’s race-driven DNA straight into the streetfighter category. This is not a softened naked bike — it is a high-performance machine built for riders who demand control, power, and precision from every throttle input.
