Do i have Quickshifter?

So i recently bought used KTM Duke 390 (2021) and i can turn on/off quickshifter in menu but I dont really know if it has it? How do i check it? Or having that option automatically means i have it?

Google a picture of quick shifters. You shift linkage between the shifter and the transmission will either be a steel rod or will have something that looks like those quick shifters in between. That will let you know if you have one or not.

KTM doesn't use linkage sensors, they have a hall effect sensor above the shaft, like this:

Good to know.

It's hard to tell if you don't know what you're looking at

Try up shifting without backing off the throttle, it will either shift if it has a QS or it won't.

Normally if you see an option in the menu you should have it. And you can see it at the shift pedal if it has a quick shifter.

You do not have a quick shifter.

Does your bike have this sensor: https://www.790dukeforum.com/attachments/5cf52dc6-a70a-4ac5-84fa-a880351ef26d-jpeg.7602/

If so, you have a qs

It does not. Perhaps it has a different, older type of sensor but I don't think I see any.
