KTM Unveils 890 Duke GP
K
TM has unleashed a new variant
on the 890 Duke range labeled
the Duke GP. Now before you get all
excited and proclaim KTM is back to
making fully faired sport bikes as the
name "GP" might suggest, you might
want to calm down.
The Duke GP is mainly a fancy
paint job that pays homage to the
Red Bull KTM MotoGP/Tech3
MotoGP teams and runs the same
LC8c parallel twin-cylinder motor and
chassis as the 890 Duke R, along
with the usual staples of Cornering
ABS, Supermoto ABS, a full-color
TFT display and LED lighting.
The 890 Duke GP does get a
funky orange single seat unit to help
differentiate it further from the 890
Duke R. Expect to see the bike on
dealer floors by April this year, with
MRSP still to be confirmed.

It's not a full fairing
sport bike but the
890 Duke GP still
cuts a fine figure.
