Known worldwide as **“THE BEAST”**, the KTM 1290 Super Duke R is one of the most exciting and outrageous naked motorcycles ever produced. Powered by its phenomenal 1,301cc V-twin engine, this example is made even more special by an outstanding selection of premium upgrades.

The highlight is the genuine full titanium Akrapovič exhaust system with the correct Akrapovič engine map. It looks superb, sounds incredible and perfectly complements the brutal character of **THE BEAST!**

This bike also benefits from both the desirable Tech Pack and Track Pack, providing the quickshifter and autoblipper, Track riding mode, launch control, adjustable throttle response and selectable traction-control slip settings.

The 1290 Super Duke R combines enormous V-twin performance with excellent electronics, quality suspension and genuinely usable road manners. It can be civilised when required, but open the throttle and you immediately understand why KTM named it **THE BEAST!**
