KTM 390 Duke vs Yamaha R7

The KTM 390 Duke (2025) and the Yamaha R7 (2026) are compared with the same Moto Kıyas physics model under identical conditions: flat dry asphalt, no wind, a 75 kg rider and no passenger. The KTM 390 Duke is a naked bike with 399 cc, 44.4 hp and 165 kg; the Yamaha R7 is a sport bike with 689 cc, 72.4 hp and 189 kg. Power-to-weight with the rider: 184.9 hp/ton versus 274.3 hp/ton. On this measure the Yamaha R7 is 48% ahead.

In the simulation the KTM 390 Duke covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 5.48 s and the Yamaha R7 in 3.41 s; the Yamaha R7 is quicker by 2.07 s. In the 100-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 43.7 m for the KTM 390 Duke (with ABS) and 40.0 m for the Yamaha R7 (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS). The Yamaha R7 stops 3.7 m shorter. Calculated top speed: 167 km/h (test measurement) versus 202 km/h (manufacturer claim).

All values are an estimated simulation, not road-test measurements. Technical data comes from the sources listed below; the model uses model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for both.
