Dude forget the husky. The ktm is in a different league, it’s got a full race pedigree.

many THX to Kiska for removing the one thing that truly bothered me on the standard Duke: the SILVER? rear subframe :) can’t wait till we get ours!!!

Haha, nice to hear that man. Feel exactly the same. I tried to get it white to start with but there was a concern people would think it was plastic. Thankfully everyone was ok with making the subframe white for this years r model.

ptsp, is there going to be a black version of the 690r?
-
No there’s not, we proposed one but there is a black 690 duke available for this year but it wasn’t as popular as the white one.

Does anyone know if these will be imported into the US for 2013?
I would ditch my 1199 for one of these. Seriously.
