My problem with KTM Duke's is the name...it's not a Ducati...why they do that!

I thought the same.

 

Damn Simon... I've seen one if them in real life... so nice...

The thing is I hate most naked bikes.

[Zac]

See, I don't mind the naked bikes as much... less to scratch I guess, but yeah, they do have a different look to the sports bikes... Still. I wouldn't mind one..

This is why im getting one!!!

 less to scratch I guess,

I guess you are scratching important stuff, not plastic bits.

[Adam]

Too bad so many $$

[simon]

A little bit.

Im hoping a nice second hander will show its self when im ready to buy.

7k new should be about 4-5k used hopefully... depending on KMs and condition...

 

Mmmmm my sisters have their horses in a 100acre horse agistment place.. wonder if I could ride a bike there.. if I could, sports bike may not be so ideal...

Yeah expensive though.

Remember if it's your first bike and you are just learning there is a chance you will drop the bike at some point...do you really want to be forking out 7-8k and scratching up your first bike?

Yes, yes i do. It's only money

 

They are on par $$$ with new Kawasaki's & Honda's

 

I should be ready to get one about march. So I will look at prices then.

 

But I do see your point and I have been looking at other bikes. Hyosung GT650R's you can pick up cheap. 2012-2013 models for around $4-5k. Secondhand.

 

We will see. But I kinda have my heart set on a duke.

[Zac]

Apparently I read somewhere there will be one with fairings in 2014 coming out...

[ams]

Save the money for big boy bike - that's what i'm doing!!

Alternatively, get something with good resale so you can make the most of it!

[simon]

Hopefully the ktm will have good resale.
