We got to test ride several KTM's in Suches in October.

The SuperDuke is a fantastic handling bike. It feels very similar to an XBSTT in its seating position and responsiveness. The brakes are great.

The only complaint besides the price tag was the FI. It was very on off snatchy. It was difficult to keep it "at speed" and it surged badly. The 990A I rode did the same thing.

Strangely, the best fueled bike was the 950 Super Enduro that was carburated.
