MAXABOUT RATING AND OVERVIEW | |||
| Vehicle Overview | |||
| KTM 690 Duke R carries the largest single cylinder engine in the company's lineup. It is good for 73.75 BHP at 8000 rpm and 74 Nm at 6500 rpm. The engine comes mated to a 6-speed gearbox while claimed top speed for the Duke R is 196 kmph. The motorcycle comes with expensive parts like Brembo 320 mm front and 240 mm rear disc brake, 43 mm WP USD forks and 865 mm of high seat position. The motorcycle will soon be replaced with the new 790 Duke, carrying a twin cylinder 790 cc engine for more power and high performance. | TNT 899 is powered by 898 cc, liquid cooled and fuel injected engine that produces 119.37 BHP at 10,000 rpm and 85.6 Nm at 8000 rpm. It looks really impressive and the big bike stance gets more clear with 830 mm of seat height and 231 kgs of weight. Benelli claims a top speed of 240 kmph for the motorcycle. The under seat exhaust and 50 mm USD forks on the TNT899 makes it a head turner on every road. It rivals Kawasaki Z800 and Ducati Monster 821 in its segment. | NA | |
