The German tuner Brabus is one of the best in the world, and when it joins forces with KTM, perfection is created. It is a motorcycle based on the KTM 1290 Super Duke R EVO model, an amazing two-wheeler, the Brabus 1300 R Edition 23.

The motorcycle is powered by a 1,301 cc V-twin engine with 177 hp (130 kW) at 8,000 rpm. Brabus has confirmed that only 290 examples of this motorcycle will be produced. This is not the first time that these two companies have collaborated together. Last year they worked on the same motorcycle, and for this year the tuner improved its appearance.

Brabus 1300 R Edition 23 is offered in two special colors, Superblack black and Stealth gray. It is equipped with carbon fiber parts, a twin-pipe exhaust system, and Platinum Black Monoblock Z forged wheels that perfectly match the dark design of the bike. The seat is upholstered and stitched in the Brabus “Crest” style, and has the option of heating.

The latest WP APEX semi-active suspension technology takes care of driving comfort, but also aggressiveness when desired. There are five settings available: Comfort, Street, Sport, Track and Advanced. It is also possible to select Auto mode, in which the motorcycle chooses the best setting.

Only 290 examples of this motorcycle will be produced, 145 each in black and gray. It will cost 42,500 euros, and will not be available in all markets.
