Perhaps the biggest news from the Austrian off-road specialist is the 1290 Superduke GT, a sort of super tourer based on their most extreme roadster model.
Along with a new large capacity fuel tank, the tall front fairing features an 8 position adjustable wind screen, LED headlights, and a complete electronic rider aid package including corning ABS, 4 mode traction control, slip control, stability control, hill-decent mode, cruise control, a quick shifter and semi-active WP suspension.
The motor is the same 173 hp unit found in the Super Duke, but with a weight of 228 kg will likely be a bit slower.
