DUKE 790-890 2018 Graphic kit

The KTM Duke 790-890 is KTM’s naked middle-weight, powered by the 799 cc (then 890 cc) LC8c twin-cylinder. Named “The Scalpel” for its surgical precision, it combines featherweight with responsive mechanics and a typically Austrian razor-sharp design. It was the Duke that redefined the standards of the segment.

The graphic kit Duke 790-890 2018 Stickers Project is designed to enhance these lines, reinforce the visual character of the machine and effectively protect its fairings against friction, gravel and daily wear.

A graphic kit designed for the KTM Duke 790-890 2018

Each kit is developed from real templates of this model to guarantee a millimeter-precise fit. The compact, angular design of the Duke 790/890 provides clean, well-defined surfaces for vinyl customization that accentuates the model’s sharp lines.

The distinctive visual elements of this generation have been integrated into the design :

• phare LED split-face signature,
• ultra-compact and angular bodywork,
• sculptural tank with sharp edges,
• orange steel-chromoly trellis frame,
• minimalist raised tail.

Made from laminated polymer vinyl, the kit offers :

• high UV resistance,
• good resistance to washing and friction,
• flexibility adapted to complex fairing shapes,
• easy application thanks to bubble-free.

Available finishes: matte for a raw and modern look, or gloss for a depth of gloss close to varnish.

Style and customization

The graphic kit Duke 790-890 2018 is available in multiple versions to suit all riding styles.

Road version

It draws from the iconic colors of this model year: KTM Orange, Black, White/Orange. The graphics highlight the original lines, reinforce the fairing volumes and respect the visual identity of the model.

Sport / Track version

Application is done in a few steps :
