DescriptionThe whole story▼

The Superduke GT takes the 1290 engine and makes it travel, which means long days, luggage and a rider whose hands get tired. A lever without play in the pivot is easier to hold lightly, and five span positions mean the setting can follow the glove rather than the other way round.

Key Features

  • An optional remote adjuster can be retrofitted to change the span while riding
  • CNC-machined from high-strength aluminium, anodised
  • Folding lever, swings clear instead of breaking in a fall
  • Double ball bearings instead of plain bushings, so the lever has no play
  • Span adjustment: five positions, set by a precise and smooth adjuster
  • Approved under ABE No. KBA 91507 (Gilles)

Type A1

Gilles lists the 1290 Superduke GT from 2016 under the type A1 for the MPBL-03.

Remote adjuster

Gilles offers an optional remote adjuster that changes the span from the left hand while riding.

Road Approval

Gilles lists the MPL levers as approved under ABE No. KBA 91507 and names the KTM 1290 SUPERDUKE GT (A1) in the fitment list for this number. The certificate is supplied with the lever and belongs with the vehicle papers. Gilles does not publish the document, so we do not quote its conditions here; if you need them before ordering, ask us and we will request the current wording. Gilles notes that the TÜV entry for this number is currently being updated.

Scope of Delivery

In the box: one MPL brake lever, ready to fit. The clutch lever is ordered separately.

Fitting

The lever replaces the original one at the master cylinder, with the original pivot bolt and nut. Set the span, then check that the brake light switch and the free play behave as before and that the lever folds and returns by itself.
