Orange Fever in Milan: KTM’s Groundbreaking New Models from EICMA Are Heading to Lings Powersports

The covers are officially off in Milan, and KTM has once again shaken up the motorcycle world at EICMA. From long-distance sport-touring missiles to next-generation off-road royalty, the Austrian manufacturer unveiled an incredible lineup.

At Lings Powersports, we are tracking every update, spec sheet, and UK release timeline. We can’t wait to welcome these machines into our showrooms and give you an exclusive, hands-on look.

Here are the standout KTM reveals from EICMA to keep your eyes on.

1. KTM 1390 Super Duke GT EVO: The Ultimate Long-Haul Beast

Sport-touring just received a massive injection of adrenaline. Taking the fierce DNA of the flagship Super Duke platform, the all-new 1390 Super Duke GT EVO has arrived to redefine continent-crossing performance.

  • Brutal LC8 Power: Houses the reworked 1,350cc LC8 V-twin with Cam-Shift variable valve timing, pushing out 190 PS (187 hp) and 145 Nm of torque.

  • Revolutionary AMT (Automated Manual Transmission): Eliminates the traditional clutch lever and offers instantaneous push-button shifts via the handlebars or a fully automated mode for long motorway stretches.

  • Next-Gen Tech & Chassis: Equipped with the latest WP APEX SAT semi-active suspension (featuring a thru-rod fork), radar-guided adaptive cruise control, Brembo Stylema calipers, and a massive 8.8-inch H88 TFT touchscreen display with integrated navigation.

2. KTM 390 Adventure Range: Refined Exploration

KTM’s class-leading single-cylinder adventure family received significant updates for the upcoming model run:

  • 390 Adventure R & 390 Adventure X: Built to cater to both rugged backcountry trail riders and everyday dual-sport commuters.

  • Updated Tech & Ergonomics: Enhanced instrumentation, refreshed rally-inspired liveries, and updated electronics ensure lightweight adventure touring remains more accessible and competent than ever.

3. New KTM SX-F Factory Editions: Motocross Perfection

For off-road and motocross purists, KTM showcased the latest KTM 450 SX-F Factory Edition and KTM 250 SX-F Factory Edition.

  • Pro-Level Hardware: Fitted with factory race-team graphics, upgraded chassis rigidity settings, connectivity units for real-time engine mapping, and factory-spec WP suspension components straight out of the crate.

Sneak Peek: The KTM 450 RC – What We Know (And What We’re Chasing)

While the production models above are gearing up for release, KTM caught everyone off guard in Milan by pulling the wraps off an unexpected teaser: the KTM 450 RC.

Sporting a brand-new parallel-twin engine, aerodynamic winglets, fully adjustable WP APEX suspension, and a striking single-sided swingarm, this lightweight supersport stole the show.

Will it come to the UK? Right now, KTM has only revealed this machine as an advance preview—full production isn't scheduled until late 2027 for the 2028 model year, and official UK allocation and road-going specifications have not yet been confirmed.

Because our team at Lings is just as eager as you to see this track-inspired twin hit British roads, we are already speaking directly with our contacts at KTM UK to get the inside track. As soon as factory updates, homologation plans, or UK market confirmations drop, you’ll hear it from us first.
