i saw on ktm's website that the 690 duke makes more power then their other models w/ the same motor, but all the motor specs were the same. weird...

BTW, the Duke 690 (not Duke III) is very different from the DII. Not much low end, but lots more HP at high RPM. I've ridden them back-to-back. Waiting to try the SMC....

I've never so much as even seen one. I did finally see the new SMC this past Sunday - looks good - better than the pictures.

I dont know man I love the Duke but the Aprilia is a rare machine and would give you that one off machine. I have yet to see one in Ontario (or ever) on the street.
