KTM 790 Duke 2023

The KTM scores with a terrific engine and a high-quality electronics package. The look divides the motorbike community. Not all motorcyclists like the front. In direct comparison with other bikes in the class, however, the price no longer seems as attractive as it used to!

Sporty engine that is superior to other bikes in this price range

Pleasant running culture from the engine

High-quality electronics

Good ergonomics for tall riders

Cheeky sound

Taut chassis for sporty riding.
