As you’d expect if you’re familiar with the the KTMs, the smaller bike will use the 1,050cc motor but power is upped to 125bhp. It is Euro 4 compliant and gets full ride-by-wire with associated electronics and tips the scales at 205kg.

The 1290s all get the same motor derived from the Super Duke’s 1,301cc engine. It kicks out 108Nm @ 2,500rpm.

The road-going ‘S’ models gets a 19″ front and 17″ rear, there’s a new TFT screen that will host a massive amount of information for the bikes too.

The 1290 Super Adventure ‘R’ is a comparatively svelte 216kg and gets a proper 21″ front and 18″ rear to underline it’s serious off-roading potential.
