The KTM 790 Duke is making its way to the Nepalese market. The 790 Duke takes its inspiration including design and specifications from 1290 Super Duke that is sold in the international markets. The naked bike will enter in a few numbers in Nepal in the first lot (as low as four units).
Now, let’s take a quick overview of the bike followed by its expected price in Nepal.
KTM 790 Duke Overview
The bike boasts intrusive lines together with minimal design language across all angles you can see. The motorbike gets a trademark split-LED headlamp along with a full-color TFT panel and a high-set exhaust canister to claim a mobster look.
It rests on a steel trellis frame and an aluminum sub-frame whilst powers on a 790cc parallel-twin engine, which is adjusted to overturn impressive numbers. This is paired with a 6-speed gearbox that comes with a bi-directional quick-shifter and a slipper clutch.
Similarly, it’s able to generate max-power of 105bhp and max torque of 86Nm, not to mention several electric units such as launch and wheely control, cornering ABS, lean-sensitive traction control. You also get a Supermoto riding mode which cuts ABS off at the rear wheel, hence lets riders get the tail out during cornering.
As for the cycle parts, the 790 Duke uses 43mm WP inverted forks and a pre-loaded adjustable monoshock at the front and rear respectively. For braking, it has twin rotors at the front and single rotors at the rear.
Available in Orange and Black colors, the KTM 790 Duke will go one-on-one with the likes of Yamaha MT-09 in the Nepali market.
