Fans of the big Super Duke were treated to the KTM Duke 990 R version, but for 2010, the littlest Duke gets an upgrade option as well. The 2010 "KTM Duke 690 R" ups the ante over the standard model which won our comparison against the Aprilia Dorsoduro thanks to its uncompromising performance and styling.
KTM claims that the "KTM Duke" 690 R scorches tarmac with 70 horsepower. Standard KTM Duke 690 Dukes are available in black, orange or white, but the R combines all into an especially sexy package.
Even though the bike tested was a pre-production unit – virtually finished bar the paintwork and decals – this bigger capacity KTM Duke 690 is altogether a different machine than non-R model KTM Duke 690 (654cc).Source URL: https://theconstantarchitect.blogspot.com/2010/09/ktm-duke-review.html
