  • Today I ride and review the new 2024 KTM 1390 Super Duke R on the road to see what it feels like. After riding the new super duke 1390 on track in Almeria Spain I had a feeling riding it on the road would be just as fun. And The Beast did not disappoint what so ever! The new Super Duke is fast , really fast , loves to wheelie and the launch control is good! Enjoy some 1390 Super Duke wheelie and launch control fun while I also talk about the suspension.

      Great video. Thanks for answering the V4 question 😊 I think I’ll still be going v4 . In Ireland SDR 1390 is €26k + another 1k for tech pack. Sfv4 is €28k. Not much in it. Build quality, aesthetic finish, engine sound, speed… the Ducati wins. I’m not interested in wheelies 🤷‍♂️ getting old 😂

    When you come from MTB (Enduro, DH) all those adjustments in suspension fork and shock makes a Lot of Sense... In MTB people can adjust pre-load (sag) / progression / high and low speed rebound / high and low speed compression / hydraulic botton out... And each one of them changes your suspension a Lot.

  • @jadeviper1290
    @jadeviper1290 Před měsícem +4

    I like how you're blown away that there's like 20 different settings for fork and shock rebound and compression, when all those were manually adjustable on the last gen superduke with the same level of fidelity. All they've done by making it electronic is add more moving parts that have the potential to fail or wear out, costing you more. Is it worth the convenience of being able to change the settings on the go without stopping and busting out a small screwdriver? Guess that's up to the rider. I'll stick with my gen 3 though, the headlight is prettier. Would be nice to have the different levels of wheelie control though, seems like something that could be flashed onto a gen 3 ECU since the gyro sensor is already on it.

    Based on your review, i think ktm should have given a longer wheelbase or they should have increased the rake angle, so that you could put more power down. My suggestions would reduce the agility of the bike but i think it is worth it.

    • @jadeviper1290
      @jadeviper1290 Před měsícem +2

      you can put plenty of power down on this bike if you don't whack the throttle. He's kind of exaggerating the wheelying in this video. In reality its actually harder to wheelie gen 3+ superdukes than gen 1-2 because they actually did increase the wheelbase in 2020. It charges forwards much easier like a race bike instead of bouncing everywhere like a big supermoto.

    Great review. Thank you. As someone who does adjust all suspension settings for my weight and intended riding, plus also adjusting others bikes who lack the understanding of what a click or two for the front and rear can alter the dynamics for individuals is something I enjoy. Seeing this all available electronically previously had me suspicious. These days, with the advancements to the IMU, it just makes the process easier. Ordered one of these a couple of weeks ago and can’t wait to get my hands on it. However, as an ex Australian Superbike racer, I’ll be leaving the wheelie control on as this produces an insane amount of torque and regulating this these days the IMU is quicker than your right wrist.
