KTM Super Duke 990
The winds of change are blowing through KTM headquarters and the sound is eerily similar to the howling exhaust note from a 75-degree V-Twin a few hundred rpm shy of redline. KTM’s assault on European motorcycle manufacturing supremacy is being led into battle by a quartet of new-age warriors including the dual-purpose 990 Adventure that’s back for another tour, the all-new 950 Supermoto, a single-cylinder 690 Supermoto and the undisputed commander of the Orange Army, the striking 990 Super Duke. If there is any doubt as to the impact this collection is going to have on the sales floor, know this before passing judgment: The Super Duke is wicked fun to ride (And the rest of the troupe is equally exciting, albeit for distinctly different reasons). When American consumers realize this, their innate desire to be different could make for some interesting movement in the KTM sales curve. thanks
