The 2015 690 Duke R is the sportier version of the 690 Duke for that year, with the same LC4 single, ride-by-wire throttle and balancer shaft as the standard bike. It adds a more aggressive riding position, WP suspension with the Pro-lever rear and cast 17-inch rims, plus Brembo brakes with a Supermoto ABS mode. The look and character reflect the bike's roots in a European junior racing series.
