With a sharper-looking LED headlight adding to the KTM 790 DUKE's menacing look and subtracting from the darkness, illumination is taken care of when charging into the night. Flanked by two LED strips that function as running lights, being seen during the daylight hours is taken care of too.
Developed for torque, this liquid-cooled 8-valve, DOHC unit delivers 87 Nm at 8000 rpm, almost immediately followed by a roaring 105 PS finale - 95 PS version for the L model that is available in certain markets. Meanwhile, an advanced ride-by-wire system guarantees great refinement as well as low fuel consumption and emission figures. It roars too.
Configurable with up to 5 different ride modes, the KTM 790 DUKE is ready to dominate just about any eventuality. In the default STREET setting, riders have full power, traction control, and limited front wheel lift, with easy throttle response. SPORT steps the experience up with sharper throttle control and some wheel slip, while RAIN mode does what it says on the box, providing maximum traction and reduced power in wet conditions. The optional PERFORMANCE and TRACK Modes crank the KTM 790 DUKE all the way to 11, providing enhanced rider customization and focused sport riding.

The KTM 790 DUKE has a reputation. Not only is it known to be devastatingly accurate, with the unmatched agility you'd expect from a single, merged with the meaty punch of a twin, but for being a no-nonsense street-brawler. Boasting an uncompromised 799 cc LC8c parallel twin motor nestled into one of the lightest and most compact chassis around, the KTM 790 DUKE is all about being fast where it counts - in the corners.
An all-new 5" bonded glass TFT dashboard is upgraded with the latest graphic and information software, making it faster, easier to navigate and designed to give riders faster access to the various features of the bike with far fewer clicks. The TFT also works in conjunction with the optional KTM Connect App, which connected with your smartphone to the dash to access navigation, audio and calls. A USB-C connection is also available for charging your smart device.
