Sorry guys. A little premature.:sweatdrop

[boomer]

Ask Kojak for a franchise and before you know it you'll have 3 in teh stable

[jrandom]

might just be outta your 10k bracket .. me finks.

Yeah, I was guessing at 25k, so DMNTD's quote of 30k doesn't come as a surprise.

[boomer]

[Drew]

It's pretty bloody triangular and pointy, looks kinda like the new Buell to me too.

I'll hang onto the current plan of a Gixxer for the road toy for now.

[Dave-]

[NZsarge]

Yeah, I was guessing at 25k, so DMNTD's quote of 30k doesn't come as a surprise.

I guessed $28k due to how much more expensive a Super Duke is than a similarish Jap machine. Still undershot it.

[DMNTD]

I want to have the SD with heaps of K's on it..
Has the same sized tank anyway mate :Pokey: :rolleyes:

[Dazza]

Has the same sized tank anyway mate :Pokey: :rolleyes:Is it not 1.5ltrs bigger :( I spose the extra cubes will see to that :2guns:

[NZsarge]

I've officially decided I want one, headlight and all.......:wait:i'm just waiting for $30k to magically drop into the account and i'm off to the local KTM dealer.

[Dave-]

anyone got the technical specs?

[Unit]

Whew, good they wont come out until next March, means our current bikes will be really really old by then. Wonder if it will be an early birthday present for me? :whistle: Standard conversation has been had. Got the "we need one" phone call last night (Im away pootling on the 14 atm), as usual I agreed, damn thats going to look great in our garage, now to ask the bank man how we can squeeze it between the 14 and the SD-R in our garage ;)

Yeeww maakkee meee siick!!!:lol:

I have that effect on people :sick: noooooww! But precisely which bit, that I expect this as a birthday present?

[NZsarge]

No, that you would be parking it between a ZX14 AND a SuperDuke R!
Oh cruel cruel world!!y'know i'm only jealous.....and kidding;)

Hehehehehehehe!!!!!! Woman...you get the lollies when you get home :buggerd:

[Sanx]

Any takers as to when the 'R' version's gonna come out? Lots of carbon-fibre goodness and some even more trick WP bling.

[MD]

Ha. Cheeky KTM buggers even used a similar soundtrack to Buell's 1125 release vid.
I do like the look of that tail section. If it's $30k for race rep. euro made bike, then that's pretty bloody good value.
Does it come with heated grips and a centre stand? ..and hard luggage?

Looking at the official aftermarket KTM gear available for SuperDuke I would'nt be that suprised:lol:

[FkNAmerican]

I like it!!! Have no idea what its gonna cost here in the States but I reckon it will be $$$$$.

The only thing I dont like is the front end. Kinda looks like the design inspiration was the back end of a shovel with a flashlight taped in the middle of it.

Other then that its hotness.

[Unit]

Hehehehehehehe!!!!!! Woman...you get the lollies when you get home :buggerd:
Cool, lollies and a new bike, you really do spoil me :innocent:

[cowpoos]

My mate has already put his name down and will be riding one within the next few days. Sloppy seconds for me.:eek:
Heres the truth of the matter...the bike was only released at the milan auto show a few days ago... DMTD is 100% right...it ain't gunna be till next autum....either your mates on crack or he talks more shit than white trash!!!

[chris]

Our boy Sutherland, flies out to the launch in Spain, tomorrow.

[chris]

Oh the poor bastard! :weep:
Yeah, he's really not looking forward to it...

[chris]

Heh! Oh well I guess the views of those stunning ladies and those bloody motorcycle things will have to do to help him through huh.
That and an expense account.

[Drew]

Austria produced Arnald Swart^$%##(, so must be discounted for thier motorcycles.

I do know however, where TWO 848 Ducatis will be arriving, before they are meant to be in shops if anyone is interested.

[Unit]

I didnt realise the RC8 was a 1200cc V-Twin, did I hear that right?
Will have to wait another year (I think but dont quote me on that) until we look at gracing one in our garage, but it will happen, at some stage :Punk:

[saul]

What a bunch of posers:clap::drool:

Man, he has got that thing screaming for a twin. Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[saul]

Considering that you're the team leader of the Tga Poseur Inc. I'll take that as a compliment :niceone:

Yep that is right on the button:2thumbsup, but didn't you say that you were the cappichino leader:wari::wari:
