Is KTM's 1290 Super Duke R worth the big premium price tag?

It’s a steep price, but man, there’s nothing that rides quite like it. All the specs don’t matter; it’s the whole experience. If you can swing it, it's totally worth it.

Before buying mine, I had a hard time with this, but after a year of owning it, I have zero regrets. It's not a bike; it's an event each time you ride.

If you think about the components and engineering that goes into it, though, it’s a lot of money, but it starts to make sense. That monster engine, WP suspension, and Brembo brakes don’t come cheap.

I believe it is overpriced for what it is. It's fast and fun, sure, but so are a lot of bikes that cost a lot less. You’re getting the exclusivity factor.

It's a gas guzzler, no doubt. But who cares? You don't buy a 990 SMR to be fuel efficient. Smiles per gallon, not miles per gallon.

It’s ridiculous fuel consumption. The bike is lovely, but I am always paranoid about running out of gas. It’s a huge disadvantage for longer rides.

If you ride sensibly, it's not as bad as people make it out to be. After all, no one buys this bike to ride sensibly. You accept the thirst and enjoy the power!

It's just one of the charms of the fuel consumption. Breaks and chatting with other riders are a great excuse for those frequent gas stops. It's part of the experience!

I’ve found that a good ECU tune can help a bit with fuel efficiency. It's not great yet, but any little bit helps when you're trying to eke out a few extra miles.

This is a deal breaker for me on fuel consumption. I don’t want to feel like I’m constantly driving around looking for the next gas station. It's fun, but impractical.

It's all relative. Yeah, it drinks fuel compared to a 600cc sportbike. Next to a big cruiser or touring bike, though? It's not that bad. It's all about perspective.

KTM's way of making you take breaks and not ride for too long is just fuel consumption. It’s really a safety feature. I tell myself at least.

I've learned to live with it. On longer trips I always carry a small gas can for peace of mind. The bike is worth the extra hassle, but it’s annoying.

There are plenty of reasons to modify the bike, but the thirsty engine is just one of them. Bigger tank, anyone? That's all part of the fun of having a bike like this, creating it as your own.

It’s nice to have, but I wonder about its durability. It is expensive to replace digital clusters if they fail.

Makes sense as a way to increase the price tag. Half those features most commuters won’t use.
