It gets its power down to the ground thanks to a new quick-turn throttle twist grip , with a 65-degree opening angle – a 7-degree reduction over the standard KTM 1290 SUPER DUKE R ’ s 72-degree grip . This was developed to deliver improved throttle response , but also to reduce the rider ’ s wrist angle and elbow drop at full opening . In between the rider ’ s wrist and the ground are a host of track focused rider aids to help tame the beast of a bike . These include Track and all-new Performance modes , which allow riders near-unlimited adjustability options for rear-wheel slip , throttle response , Launch Control , and Motor Slip Regulation .
Other unique features to the Super Duke RR include a carbon fibre subframe and bodywork , solo seat , and a full range of KTM PowerParts has also been developed for those riders looking to boost their already frightening performance and track-ready viciousness to an even higher level . While both New Zealand and European allocations both sold out in minutes , the Australians reportedly still have bikes yet to find a home . So , if you missed out and still want to get your hands on one of these bikes , talk to your local KTM dealer to get put on the waiting list in case any that are currently spoken for happen to become available .
