WHEELS: The KTM 890 DUKE is fitted with extremely lightweight, light-alloy wheels manufactured in a low-pressure die casting process. You won't even know it's there, until that one nasty bit of road comes up mid corner. STEERING DAMPER: This reliable and sensitive WP steering damper is setup to give ultimate feedback to the rider, while keeping the front wheel steady and uncompromised over uneven tarmac. REAR SHOCK: A high-quality gas-assisted WP Suspension rear shock absorber has been fitted with a new, lighter linear spring which, together with new factory settings, offers improved progression and overall comfort. Clever engineering of the triple clamps and the handlebar clamps mean four different handlebar positions are possible for that perfect riding position. 
TRIPLE CLAMPS: The cast aluminum triple clamp stiffness has been tuned to match the flex of the fork, contributing to the sporty handling and excellent feedback.The front fork also adopts new linear springs which are not only lighter but also guarantee a more intuitive feel, while the added base valve improves high-speed damping. FRONT FORK: A set of WP APEX 43mm open cartridge upside-down forks take care of things up front, making use of split function technology.
SUSPENSION: The KTM 890 DUKE boasts a WP suspension package which has been specifically developed to get the most of the power output and handling characteristics, with a dedicated factory setting, new springs, and additional basevalve fittings in the front fork.By using a direct link for the rear shock, complexity and parts are reduced. SWINGARM: The die-cast, open-lattice swingarm is meticulously manufactured and has been optimized for stiffness and stability while still offering excellent flex characteristics.The triangular shapes in the subframe allow for a stronger, stiffer construction. No plastic covers, no additional brackets - everything is cast into two connected pieces to reduce complexity and weight. SUBFRAME: The subframe is cast aluminum and houses the airbox.Engineers had one goal in mind, and that was to keep the chassis as rigid and compact as possible for sharper turn-in and greater lean angles, allowing it to slice through the turns with extreme responsiveness.
FRAME: The incredible handling characteristics of the KTM 890 DUKE are founded on the dynamic, loadbearing design of the tubular chassis. An LED taillight is also mounted to the KTM 890 DUKE - which will be seen the most by those you overtake. This high-performance LED headlight is flanked by two LED strips that function as daytime running lights, ensuring maximum illumination and attention. LED LIGHTS: The KTM 890 DUKE features a unique LED headlight with styling cues taken from THE BEAST itself. Best of all, as the revs rise, the display bars change color to indicate when to shift, either spurring you on or warning you that the engine is too still cold for flat-out backroad attacks. In that regard, the KTM 890 DUKE features an intuitive multicolor, light variable TFT dashboard. TFT DASHBOARD: Like all pilots, DUKE riders need easy access to information.
