The long rumoured KTM 1290 Super Duke RR was recently spotted on the street with the motorcycle expected to be introduced late this year.
The new variant is expected to come with the premium specification based on the latest spy shot photos.
Recent reports suggest that the Super Duke RR is packed with carbon fibre, titanium, and magnesium parts to help the motorcycle shed some kilograms than the standard 1290 Super Duke R.
The carbon-fibre can be seen at the rear subframe, front fender, flyscreen, chain-guard and brake ducts while getting rid of the pillion seat and footrest also helps reduce any unnecessary weight.
The RR can also be seen equipped with an Akrapovic exhaust system indicating it will offer a few extra ponies than the current 180hp found on the 1290 Super Duke R, with both expected to share the already powerful LC8 V-twin.
