Badass & Powerful: KTM Unveils the BRABUS 1400 R Signature Edition

KTM unveils the BRABUS 1400 R Signature Edition, a 190-horsepower luxury hyper naked bike limited to 100 units worldwide, blending raw performance with BRABUS’ signature craftsmanship and bold design.

BRABUS and KTM have joined forces once again to push the limits of luxury performance with the launch of the BRABUS 1400 R Signature Edition, a machine that redefines what a hyper naked motorcycle can be. Limited to just 100 units worldwide, this exclusive model marks the next chapter in the partnership between the German luxury tuner and the Austrian manufacturer.

Built on the cutting-edge technology of the 2025 KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE R EVO, the 1400 R Signature Edition is a bold statement of a badass design, exclusive elegance, and superior performance. Its heart is a 1,350cc LC8 V-Twin engine that produces a whopping 190 horsepower and 145 Nm of torque, ensuring explosive acceleration and precise throttle control. A dual underseat exhaust enhances its aggressive stance while delivering a sound that perfectly complements its commanding looks.

Aesthetically, the bike embodies the BRABUS philosophy of Black and Bold. The “Midnight Veil” body color, combined with the WIDESTAR carbon fiber bodywork, gives the motorcycle an unmistakable supercar-inspired identity. From the sculpted carbon fiber fender and headlight unit featuring BRABUS Signature Stripes to the sleek belly pan and fuel tank fairing, every component is crafted with meticulous attention to detail. Each element not only enhances aerodynamics but also adds to the visual drama that BRABUS is known for.

Riders are treated to premium craftsmanship throughout. The bespoke single-seat upholstery, made from BRABUS MASTERPIECE leather and Dinamica microfiber, provides both comfort and exclusivity. Embossed BRABUS logos and aerodynamic side winglets behind the seat emphasize the bike’s tailored luxury and functional design.

In terms of performance and handling, the 1400 R Signature Edition doesn’t just impress, it dominates. The WP APEX Semi-Active Technology (SAT) suspension offers electronically controlled damping adjustments that can instantly adapt from smooth touring comfort to track-focused stiffness. Five selectable ride modes, Street, Sport, Rain, Performance, and Track, allow riders to fine-tune throttle response, traction control, and power delivery for any condition.

Stopping power matches the performance thanks to Brembo’s HYPURE Monoblock brake system, featuring 320 mm front Wave discs and 240 mm rear units for exceptional braking precision. Completing the package are the 17-inch BRABUS Monoblock II EVO “Platinum Edition” wheels, forged for lightness, strength, and head-turning aesthetics.

Technology meets artistry through the full-color TFT display, customized with BRABUS graphics and startup animation, giving riders an intuitive interface to access all ride data and mode settings.

Priced at €41,933 (excluding VAT), the BRABUS 1400 R Signature Edition is more than just a motorcycle; it’s a collectible work of art for the most discerning riders. Each unit ships with exclusive accessories, including a carbon fiber key box, leather key cover, and one of 100 CNC-machined tabletop emblems.

For Filipino riders and collectors who crave exclusivity and engineering perfection, the BRABUS 1400 R Signature Edition is the ultimate expression of power and prestige. Local release details are still unknown, but if it ever arrives, it will surely be a sight to behold on Philippine roads.
