Just wild – or truly fast? KTM 990 Duke review!

In July 2025, the KTM 990 Duke had to prove itself in the tough 1000PS Best Lap format. Just how much cornering speed is hidden in KTM's latest naked bike? On the tight circuit of Motorsportarena Bad Fischau, NastyNils rides the 990 Duke on our benchmark lap – same track, same rider, same conditions.

🎥 Onboard footage, lap time, and placement – this video has it all!
Can the 990 Duke live up to the hype and challenge its big sister, the KTM 1290 Super Duke R?

💬 Guess the result – where would you rank it in the current Best Lap leaderboard?
