WIND IN THE P24 KTM Reveals Updated 790 Duke B eyond new graphics and styl- ing cues taken from its bigger 990 and 1390 brothers, the 2027 KTM 790 Duke features signifi- cant updates, including a rework of the bike's rider triangle. "A new handlebar shape featuring a more open angle, repositioned rider and passenger footpegs, and an improved seat all work together to deliver a more natural, con- nected riding position," says KTM. "Despite its larger, more 'grown-up' appearance, a 4.4-pound weight reduction further enhances agility," says KTM. "These, together with a new subframe, new triple clamps, and a new tank design, further improve handling and ergonom- ics and provide excellent chassis and front-wheel feedback." The new 790 Duke also features updated WP braking components and front and rear suspension fine-tuning. The 2027 KTM 790 Duke will be available at authorized KTM dealers from late summer 2026 onward. It will be offered in two color choices, orange and black, with an MSRP of $9799. CN The 2027 KTM 790 Duke features new styling with ergonomics and suspension upgrades.
