The short version

The 1390 Super Duke R is the loudest statement in the hyper naked class: 190 hp, 145 Nm and cam-shift technology that fattens the midrange without sacrificing the top end. Brembo monoblocs and fully adjustable WP suspension keep the violence organised.

Where it wins

145 Nm from 8000 rpm makes every gear the right gear
Brembo monobloc calipers and fully adjustable WP APEX suspension
Quickshifter finally standard on the flagship

Where it loses

Cruise control is still a paid option at 22,000 EUR
Consumption near 6 L/100 km with a heavy wrist
