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
