KTM's profilation of this bike |
The KTM 690 Duke R cultivates the sporty genes of the 690 Duke – and differs not only visually very little from the lightning-quick cup rockets that caused such an uproar in the 2012 European Junior Cup: A formidable hot rod for enthusiasts and experts alike, light as a feather, lightning quick, amazingly suitable for everyday use, but with everything that makes a 690 Duke even sportier. |
