KTM reveals 1290 Super Duke R Patriot Edition

Austrian motorcycle brand KTM has reportedly announced its plans to reveal a production-ready KTM 1290 Super Duke R at EICMA later this year. The announcement came  during the revealing of a new one-off prototype christened as the Super Duke R Patriot Edition.

To mark the occasion of the Fourth of July, the one-off Patriot Edition was revealed exclusively to its American dealers recently. Unlike the prototype’s signature orange livery, the Patriot Edition boasts a stars and stripes graphics theme, along with a blue paintjob inspired by the American celebration. Think ‘Star Spangled Banner’, except its on a power super-naked.
