In terms of raw performance, these two are evenly matched. The 1390 Super Duke R EVO and Speed Triple 1200 RX produce nearly identical power figures, meaning the real-world difference will come down to gearing and torque delivery rather than peak horsepower. When it comes to agility, the Speed Triple 1200 RX has a clear advantage. Weighing in 13kg less than the 1390 Super Duke R EVO, it will feel significantly easier to handle in low-speed traffic, parking maneuvers, and twisty corners. Bottom Line: It's a close call. Choose the 1390duke if you prefer its specific styling and ergonomics, or the speed-triple1200 if you want the alternative brand character.
