Still a 350 from KTM, that's pretty cool. I wouldn't mind trying it out.

Damn, simply georgeous. I must say though that since KTM announced a 125 road bike, I've been waiting for the 250 and 350 that were in R&D at the time and kept out of newsprint here in the states.

Let me ask you, I hear the word "Yank" alot in the islands/countries where you are when technically we're "Rebels." Is that because Brits still hold up their pinkie whilst sipping tea or just plain ignorance or simply naiveity. It particularly bothers me in Ireland where I spend most of my overseas time, and I'm only the second generation of my family tree to be american. I've had to ruffle some feathers and then some to set things straight where I show my face regularly.

What I don't understand is why they're calling it the 350 Duke and making a sport style bike. The other Duke's look like naked uprights.

I'm guessing the name or the pic is misleading.

They always show the racer as it's the WOW factor, plus as you said, all 200 and 350 news/photos were "leaked." I heard about larger displacement street versions in Europe, never here in U.S. but KTM's 125 isn't moving due to word of higher displacements coming within 2 years and 3 years. (I thought 250 and 350, but who cares as long as they're not 125-4's).
