I currently have a 2015 1290 R myself and did a testride on a 2022 model. The massive improvement that i noticed right away was the non shaky daiky when ur in a bigger gear. The old ones sure dont like going like in 5-6 gear pretty much anywhere 😂
Is pakken comfortabeler dan de rest. En ik heb ze gehad dus kan het weten 😁. Is boterzacht dit ding. De eerste generatie merk je gewoon dat het ding hard en gevaarlijk is. Deze is op alle gebieden gewoon beter 😎
Ik raak er maar niet uit maar heb nog heel de winter om te beslissen... Wou eigenlijk men keuze maken op het autosalon in januari maar lees daarnet dat het motosalon weer afgelast is 😠 weet jij soms al of 2023 enige verandering brengt tov 2022 model?
I answered the getting caught with a wheelie issue in a live stream last week. Doing more live streams soon so will explain again 😁. Was gonna make a video about it to haha
Great bike... but you're still prepared to ride in those stupid gloves which would offer zero protection to your hands if you came off, also your wrists and forearms would suffer. I hate short gloves generally but your cotton/neoprene ones are the worst. Sorry mate, just thinking of you.
Yeah these are motorcross gloves to be honest. I have dropped on concrete many times before. I always use my elbows to slide , and i got good protection there 😅
I much prefer the handling of the duke 390 and the size, but the 1290 has infinitely more character and terrifying amounts of power at any rpm. The new one is pretty tame if you don't twist the throttle too hard
Sorry for the low quality today! TH-cam screwed me over again haha.
Nah no problem bossku 🇲🇾

Same here. Went for the 1290SAS, as the superduke R is just a devil on your shoulder! 😈
About time mate , where have you been , the 1290 , I miss you adventures
Love your videos my dad has a 2008 KTM 990 sm he loves it
'God damn!'
I’m waiting for your review about the Maico two stroke 700 enduro. Talking about a wheelie-machine. 😎
Wat vind je van de zithouding ivg met eerdere modellen? Ik hoor dat de laatste duke r iets sportiever zit en dus wat minder comfort?

In mei gingen er geruchten en beelden rond van een projectorheadlight maar deze zijn fake volgens motocare 😬
WHAT?????? 12 hours???? NO, NO, NO, NO, we can not wait 12 hours!! OHHHHH the humanity!!!
It's close now 11 hours later. Hope you had a good sleep 😁
Does Hahaha equal to traction control has kicked in? 😅

I thought Irish roads were bad until I saw this.
I want one, but I hve a bit of a speed bug and I'm sure it would lead to tickets and possibly death.
I'm wondering,temptation.. KTM SUPER DUKE
OR
BMW
K1600

GTL
WHAT a dilemma..
Blashpmer!
Great bike. So you didn't lose your license after the wheelie for that long thats good.

Time to get a new one 😂😂😂
690 next plz
1:04 I thought you're in Ukraine🙃
😄
Depends for what. Not offroad 😂
Dude, you should tell the government about the road next to the KTM. I'm sure the government will happily announce that the Russians bombed the road.

@@LifeofSmokey - Ha, fair enough, if you can save it like Marquez then you've won
@@andyorange7666 i wish i could be 1/10 of a man he is hahaha
What's this like compared to a 390 duke?
390 duke feels like a bicycle 😅
@@LifeofSmokey 😆 no doubt.
