[TimesNow](https://www.timesnownews.com/auto/bike-news/ktm-1390-super-duke-gt-evo-debuts-at-eicma-2026-engine-features-and-more-article-156471113) reported the debut on November 6, 2026. Availability in India has not been confirmed.\n\n## What the 1390 Super Duke GT EVO Carries\n\nThe 1390 Super Duke GT EVO uses a 1,350cc LC8 75-degree V-twin engine that produces a maximum of 187hp and peak torque of 145Nm. Unlike the standard model, it comes with KTM's Automated Manual Transmission, which removes the need for typical manual clutch operation. Riders can choose automatic operation or take control through the foot lever and handlebar-mounted paddles.\n\nThe motorcycle is built on a chromium-molybdenum steel trellis frame. Suspension comes from the new WP APEX Semi-Active Technology, with a 48mm semi-active fork at the front using a new through-rod design and a semi-active shock absorber with electronic adjustment at the rear. Brembo Stylema monobloc calipers with twin discs handle front braking, and a Brembo rear braking setup is also fitted.\n\nThe 1390 Super Duke GT EVO was not KTM's only reveal in Milan. The 2028 450 RC also made its debut, introducing a new twin-cylinder engine to the supersport range. Availability of either model in India is not yet confirmed.\n\n## KTM's 2027 Range and Racing Partnerships\n\nKTM's recent product moves include the 2027 model year motorcycle range, which features the 890 Adventure R Rally, FREERIDE E, 990 RC R Track, 790 Duke and an expanded Enduro range, according to akta.pro [company records](https://akta.pro/company-data). The same records list 2026 Factory Edition models, the 450 SX-F, 250 SX-F and 300 XC-W, built on factory racing success.\n\nKTM holds a sustained title sponsorship partnership with Red Bull for the Red Bull KTM Factory Racing and Red Bull KTM Tech3 teams across MotoGP, MXGP, AMA Pro Motocross and Enduro championships. The company's profile describes an Austrian manufacturer founded in 1953 that sells performance motorcycles through more than 600 dealers in Canada and the US.\n\n## KTM's EICMA Build-Up\n\nKTM unveiled the 450 RC at EICMA, a new mid-displacement supersport with WP APEX suspension, a 320mm front disc and cornering ABS, Autoevolution reported. Production is scheduled for late 2027, making it a 2028 model, and the engine specs were not disclosed.\n\nAhead of the show, KTM unveiled its 2027 model lineup, featuring upgrades across Adventure, Naked and Off-road categories, WebWire reported. KTM said it would showcase its future vision at EICMA26 in Milan from November 3 to 8, 2026, with a press conference and rally team presentation, WebWire reported.\n","publisher":{"name":"News for Agent","url":"https://newsforagent.com"}}
