01. Engine & Exhaust
Engine
The KTM 1290 SUPER DUKE GT’s BEAST-derived LC8 V-Twin powerplant perfectly fits its sovereign appearance. Now with a EURO5 rating, this 175 hp, 141 Nm lump is as much a superbike slayer as it is a coastal road cruiser. A unique mix of the highest quality components, such as titanium inlet valves, have also combined to create overall reliability and allowing for service intervals of 15,000 km. That’s a lot of touring!
Cylinder head
Apsolutno ključni element u izuzetnim performansama i nesmetanoj reakciji motora od 1301 kubika 75 V-twin jesu najsavremenije četvoroventilne cilindarske glave jedinice. One kombinuju paljenje sa dve svećice, portove optimalizovane za protok, lake titanijumske ventile i rezonatorske komore za najmirniji twin-motor u gradu.
Crankshaft
Reaktivnost i priroda slobodnog rasta broja obrtaja motora modela KTM 1290 SUPER DUKE GT posledica je niske recipročne težine njegove bregaste osovine.
Pistons
We borrowed Formula 1 technology in creating the pistons in the KTM 1290 SUPER DUKE GT. The forged piston structure,results in a high loading capacity, despite the extremely short and lightweight design. Furthermore, the piston skirts have a state-of-the-art, hard-anodized finish. Not only does this reduce friction, it is also particularly hard-wearing with a consequently a positive impact on durability.
Twin ignition
Sistem paljenja sa dve svećice kontroliše dve svećice različite veličine u svakoJ glavi cilindra nezavisno jedna od druge na takav način da se u svakom trenutku postigne nesmetanija, optimalno kontrolisana sekvenca paljenja. Rezultat: više snage, bolja kontrola, niža potrošnja goriva i manje emisija.
Ride-by-wire
Sistem „ride-by-wire" na modelu KTM 1290 SUPER DUKE GT dodatno se pokazao. Elektronskim prevođenjem komandi za ubrzavanje u optimalne položaje ventila gasa za aktuelnu voznu situaciju, on obrađuje pokrete tučice za gas uz pomoć elektronskih senzora i aktivira ventile gasa u skladu s tim, koristeći servomotore. To donosi mirniju reakciju gasa, redukujući šanse za trzaje pri niskom broju obrtaja i neželjeno propinjanje. Međutim, svojevoljna ludiranja sa prednjim točkom lako bi mogla biti nešto čime ćete se ubuduće baviti.
Mapping
When you’re traveling two-up, the last thing you want is a jerky throttle. KTM have worked the EFI mapping, in combination with the plain bearing and timing, to transfer low-down power to the road with less vibration and reduced engine noise.
Slipper clutch
Ne samo što je klizna spojka otvorena kad povratni obrtni moment motora postane previsok, već i pomaže kada dodate gas. Prvo sprečava destabilizujuće drmusanje zadnjeg točka pri pštrom kočenju ili usporavanju; potonje redujuje silu šake potrebnu za promenu stepena prenosa, dopuštajući da se spojka kontroliše jednim prstom, lakim na obaraču.
Exhaust
The KTM 1290 SUPER DUKE GT's exhaust system is made entirely from rustproof stainless steel and is EURO5 homologated. Hundreds of test bench runs and complex simulations ensured that the exhaust system, which is using an exhaust flap, contributes decisively to the extremely smooth torque curve and excellent emission values of the powerful twin-cylinder. And did we mention the sound? While it whispers at low revs, it will take your breath away reaching for the high notes.
