Description

Finally. A Superduke You Can Flat-Foot.

The KTM 1290 Superduke is one of the most thrilling motorcycles ever built. It's also tall. For shorter riders, that seat height isn't just uncomfortable — it's a confidence killer every time you stop at a light.

The Supershort fixes that. It's a purpose-built lowering link that brings the seat height down to where you need it, without touching the handling that makes the Superduke legendary.

Laguna Seca Tested. By Someone Who Needed It.

We gave one to Rae — all 5 feet of her — and she put it through its paces at Laguna Seca. Not a parking lot. Not a back road. Laguna Seca. The geometry held. The confidence came back. The Supershort passed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this change how the bike handles?
Yes—for the better. And the greatest improvement of all is your new found confidence. Being able to keep your feet planted on stop signs, traffic lights, and especially intersections on hills - is where the Supershort will really shine for you. In addition to confidence building, the Supershort is designed to keep the handling nature of the Superduke in tact - while most other lowering kits make a bike feel unstable. When you follow my recommendation to drop the forks 10mm, and possibly even more, the bike actually tips into corners just as easy as it does off the showroom floor, and it feels more "planted" due to the slightly lower center of gravity - which is actually an advantage that riders with shorter legs get to experience.

Will the bike bottom out or scrape the belly pan?
No. We’ve tested this setup at Laguna Seca with riders of various weights. Under hard track riding, the bike maintained full clearance. The Supershort is engineered with a specific offset to ensure the control arm never contacts the shock, even at full extension.

Is this just a shorter version of the stock part?
It’s a bit more complex than that. If you simply shortened the arm, it would hit the shock body. I’ve engineered a custom offset into the solid metal part to provide the necessary clearance while achieving the 20mm drop. It’s a precision solution, not a "hacksaw" fix.

Do I need to change my kickstand?
In most cases, no. Because the -20mm drop is subtle and balanced by the front fork adjustment, the stock kickstand usually remains functional. However, always check your lean angle on level ground after installation to ensure the bike is stable.

Can I install this myself?
If you have a way to support the bike (like the Superjack), it’s a straightforward bolt-on process. No permanent modifications to your frame or swingarm are required.

Total Control. Zero Compromise.

The SuperShort is the ultimate ergonomic upgrade for the KTM Super Duke. By reducing lever throw and optimizing finger placement, you gain the millisecond precision required for high-performance riding. CNC-machined for durability and tactile feedback, this lever doesn't just change the look of your cockpit—it changes how you connect with the bike. Upgrade your interface and ride with more confidence. Add the SuperShort to your build now.
