2024 KTM 790 Duke

With the 890 Duke growing up to become the 990 Duke, and the return of the 799cc parallel-twin LC8c, the 790 Duke now takes up the assignment of occupying the middle of the company’s naked lineup.

That LC8c makes a claimed 105 hp and 65 lb.-ft. of peak torque. Ride-by-wire throttle control enables four riding modes including Track, Sport, Street, and Rain. Motorcycle Traction Control, Cornering ABS with a Supermoto mode, and TFT display are electronic highlights.

The lightweight steel-trellis frame, die-cast aluminum swingarm, and WP Apex suspension at each end, and twin four-piston calipers and 300mm discs give the 790 Duke a high-performance and sporty chassis.

The 2024 KTM 790 Duke is available in orange or gray for $9,499.
