    I went to the doctor for severe depression.. he prescribed a Superduke R. Hopefully insurance covers the cost..

  • @iamtherealzombie
    @iamtherealzombie 4 ปีที่แล้ว +86

    Worst thing about the super duke R is that KTM puts all the quickshifter hardware on every bike but STILL has the balls to charge you for a key to unlock their use. Absolute bollocks, IMO.

    • @ross5506
      @ross5506 4 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      I purchased 2020 1290R the only good thing that KTM did was they included the quick shifter with the "Teck Pac" at $899. plus taxes here in Canada. I tested the Tuono then the 1290R , couple of Saturdays ago come Monday I wanted the 1290R the only problem was they only had it in black. The salesman told me I can give you the Tuono right now available the 2019,for same price. No told him, I was to receive the 1290R this past Friday, still no bike! Now he's saying this coming Thursday or Friday for sure, never had such aggravation on the purchase on new motorcycle, sure hope it's worth it?

    • @bryansuperduke1290r
      @bryansuperduke1290r 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      On some bikes you have to buy the part and fit it, but still about the same cost.
      Don’t forget loads of factory’s shut down and it’s going to take time to get bikes now.

    Finally rode my mates 2020 super duke r and I honestly wasn’t expecting it to be so good even after watching a lot of bloggers saying how good it was. Engine pulls from everywhere and that front wheel lifts all the time. You can ride it sensibly if you have the willpower. 2020 one is a Smooth bike. . It’s crazy fun!!

      So did I here in southern ,Ontario,Canada. Two weeks ago test ridden the Tuono back to back 1290R, within 24 hour's told salesman I wanted the 1290R ,but the orange/dark blue non in stock. Then offering me 2019 Tuono within electronic suspension, at same price very tempting, still wanting my 1290R this was 2 weeks ago, I was suppose to have it just last Friday. No fell through, this time told me found one promise me it will be ready this coming Thursday, sure hope it's worth it?

This is an exceptionally Fun Bike also for everyday use (alarm, optional heating grips and even heating saddle with good under saddle storage room) 6,0 litres/100 kms on an unreasonably fast 330 km trip this sunday.

Never rode one, but being big guy and at 56 year's old sport bikes are a passed tense. Got my 2008 ZX-14 turbocharged for touring, this is perfect for country ride blasting and city riding. I can't wait see how it rides. Here in Canada you get Teck package with quick shifter extra $899. I guess Teck package is best you can get, they also had performance package?

    I gave this a 'thumbs up' before I even watched it as I find Mr LCR's video's very entertaining. Your enthusiasm is pretty obvious for this SDR. I'm in the market for my new bike at the moment and this was on the list but I just can't get over the looks of it. My other options are Ducati Monster S or the Triumph Speed Triple RS (I did toy with the idea of the new Ducati V4 but it's just too much money - £4K for a road legal Akra? Madness!!) Test riding them next week to try to make up my mind. There are too many great bikes about at the moment !!!!

    I knew you'd love it. FYI - You may have a faulty bike. The left switch gear is illuminated, and offers 4 settings...Off, Dark, Medium and Bright. It also tells you on the bottom of the screen if the Anti-Wheelie is off or on. "AWM OFF". I've had mine for about 3 months and I average 42 MPG and 150 miles per tank with a very heavy throttle hand. Only bad thing about the new SDR (and all KTMs) is the KTM My Ride app that pairs your phone with the bike so you can view Nav, music and phone calls on the screen is crap. I can't even pair my phone with the bike

    Get review as always! One thing you haven’t really mentioned was the build quality and ergos. I’ve had my gen 2 since it came out and I rode the new gen 3 recently - few things that instantly really stood out to me with a back to back ride was that the new bike definitely has more sporty ergos - the pegs are higher and you’re cantered over the front more, the build quality is a step above the old bike and it feels a bit more torquey in the middle of the rev range and thats comparing to my 2.0 with the full Akraprovic and race map. The new bikes such a great machine and ‘fixes’ all the flaws of the old bike - especially if you come from superbikes and are looking for something still sporty - the old bike has a more Supermoto position which some people may prefer. I’m really torn between trading my gen 2 in for this or the Tuono V4 factory (as the Tuono deals are so good and you’re getting a hell of a lot of bike for a lot less) - I’m just worried I’ll regret not having some variety and changing to a different engine (yum v4) / manufacturer for another 3 years if I get another SDR....

    I'm really looking forward to your more in-depth review and comparison between this and the Kawasaki Z H2. Don't mind the looks of both bikes but the SDR seems to be the more carefully refined from what I've heard so far but not any real in-depth review out there on the Z H2 that I've seen. Thinking of going back to a Naked Bike at the end of this year so hopefully by then we may have a new MT10, S1000R out too as both of which seem to have fallen behind now and need a next level upgrade IMHO. Plan on test riding both the SDR & Z H2 around September / October time. I'm waiting as long as possible as I know I will buy one of them straight after 😄

    "I don't feel like I have to just go banzai everywhere" Just what I wanted to hear, I got an mt-10 and love it but its just too aggressive and I find myself riding too fast all the time. Looks like i might be trading it in for this!

      What I did this year. From a MT10 to a Diavel 1260. And yes the Ducati is more enjoyfull to go slow but still will be able to go fast as hell. You should not fool yourself though becouse you probably will go fast on any bike becouse fast is fun. Just do it on the right places to minimize the risk. I will probably go V4 streetfighter next year. I done fooling myself lol.

    I mean with the rider aids nothing is too much for the road. Look at the new S1K and Fireblade....Best thing about a V-Twin is you can lug it, best road bike ever. My wife likes to ride with me so I opted for the SAS but its basically the same engine with a more comfortable platform. The Super Duke GT too hard to locate here in the US, but I love the SAS!

    you liked the earlier SD as well, and once gushed over the 701SM, but then you turfed them for GSXR and KAWI litres, et al. so it's hard to tell what you really like in the long run----not that i can't understand the appeal of many bikes. Now i'm wondering what you'll think of the 890R...

  • @575ban

    Adding my two pence.
    I had a gen2 1290 SDR and my opinion on the 1290 SDR is it is too much for the road. Yes it will go slow but who wants to go slow all the time. As a road bike to have fun on, the 1290 is to fast. I've now got a Duke 790 and love it. You can rag the 790, get it to pop, bang, burble, all well within life's tolerances. With the 1290 SDR, that's just not possible, it will hurt you, or get you locked up. I loved my 1290 SDR, but I love my Duke 790 more.
    Plus, you get track pack, quick shifter, auto blipper blah blah blah, all for free. Mind if you're over 6ft, the 790 is a small bike. Oh, did I say I have a 1290 SAS too 😉

    The brigade of riders who say things like that are lost and should take up golf!
    Don't listen to that lot KTM they are confused and conflicted!! We want crazy machines that make us wonder how they perform like that. Not ones that bore us through safety.
    Let the riders who think motorcycling should be sensible go and take up golf, and let the rest of us lose our licences and go to jail with big fat smiles on our faces if we so wish 😂😂😂
