KTM 890 DUKE

19-07-2022 0 owners Registered July 2022 on a 22 plate and now with just 2,585 miles. Presented in Atlantic Blue. The KTM 890 Duke R comes in a natty new blue for 2022. The 119bhp parallel twin has won many admirers with its sharp handling and characterful motor and its flash new clothes should attract even more attention. The Atlantic blue paintscheme is borrowed from its bigger brother, the 1290 Super Duke R. On the face of it the 890 Duke R is a slighter bigger, more expensive 790 Duke with a few more bells and whistles. That is indeed the case, but its also one of the finest handling road bikes money can buy. Former Grand Prix winner Jeremy McWilliams had a strong hand in its development, so it was never going to be a blancmange, but having a devilishly fast rider in your test team isnt always a guarantee of success. Being given the keys to KTMs toy cupboard and able choose the best tyre, brakes and suspension is. The net result is a machine that will lean and grip in ways few road bikes could dream of. The 890s only limit diving into corners is the riders bravery and with so much mechanical grip at the rear, friendly power delivery and traction control, you can pretty much accelerate as hard as you want from the apex. It gets a slight weave-on under hard acceleration at high speed, but thats just what wide-barred nakeds too when you push-on. Stylema Brembos, normally seen dangling from the front of the latest superbikes are things of wonder, especially on a bike so light and grippy. The span and ratio-adjustable lever only needs the lightest of brushes to get your triceps bulging and the back brake is nicely weighted. This specific KTM 890 Duke R is in excellent condition and benefits from being fitted with a pillion seat cover and we do have the rear pillion seat with the bike as well.
