Freewheeling with the Duke

Post Thumbnail

Ross Noble is currently filming the second series of Freewheeling using the new KTM 1290 Super Duke R.

The off-the-wall travel show sees the top comic touring the United Kingdom at the mercy of the tweets he gets from his 500,000 plus followers on Twitter. The first series was shown on Dave earlier this year and saw Ross in a multitude of bizarre situations that made for compelling viewing and proved to be incredibly popular.

Having completed the first series riding a touring bike, Ross was looking for something quite different and very overstated to continue the theme as an alternative travel show. Seeing the 180hp 1290 Super Duke R at Motorcycle Live in 2013 soon made the decision for Ross, who already has a soft spot for the Austrian brand as he competes in Enduro events on his own KTM 350 EXC-F.

With a UK price of £13,999 on the road available in either Orange or Black and backed up with a huge array of KTM PowerParts to personalise the performance or styling, the Super Duke R is available now at KTM Street dealers.

Commenting on his new series, scheduled to be aired this coming winter, Ross Noble said: “What is Freewheeling? Well, people tweet me and I will travel to anywhere in the country to make the show – the more bizarre tweets the better. Last series I used more of a touring bike but this time I am using the 1290 Super Duke R, so we should be able to get everything done in half the time.

“We’ve already done a couple of thousand miles and I am very impressed with the Super Duke R. We’ve done some pretty long days in the saddle and it is just so comfortable. Wasn’t expecting that. And of course, it is incredibly fast. In a way it feels a bit like an off-road bike, so I’m right at home.”
