The Tractive X-TREME fork cartridge kit for the KTM 1290 SUPER DUKE R replaces the internal fork damping with a closed, pressurised cartridge design for consistent performance across changing conditions. This kit uses sealed cartridges to control oil and gas separation, helping reduce fade during sustained use. It is a cartridge-style internal upgrade rather than an external fork leg replacement.

Design & features

  • Closed, pressurised fork cartridges to maintain damping consistency and reduce fade.
  • Sealed cartridge architecture keeps damping oil controlled and separated from gas.
  • Fork cartridge kit format intended to retrofit inside the existing fork legs.

Tuning Controls

  • Dual-adjustable damping: rebound and compression adjustment.

Base Setup (factory preset)

No factory settings were provided in the supplied product data. Set-up should be completed to suit rider mass, use case and tyres by a qualified suspension technician.

Before You Install

  • Confirm fitment for your exact KTM 1290 SUPER DUKE R variant and model year before installation.
  • Professional installation is recommended, as fork disassembly and correct oil level/bleeding procedures are required.

Serviceability/Lifecycle

As a sealed cartridge system, servicing requires appropriate tools and suspension-specific procedures. Plan periodic maintenance to keep damping consistent over time, particularly if the bike is used hard or in varied conditions.

Is It Right For You?

This kit suits riders who want more controlled, tuneable fork damping and the consistency benefits of a pressurised closed-cartridge layout. If you prefer a set-and-forget approach with minimal adjustment, a non-adjustable option may be more suitable.
