#4I'm sure they'll do one in slow orange and superfast black.
Mind you, I'll probably end up on one of these by the end of the year if I get any more points.

#9They have a new in-store video at the KTM centre, and when the CEO of KTM is interviewed you can see what looks like the raptor in the background behind him, in white.
It's definitely a half-faired/naked big capacity KTM anyway.
For me, I'd hate to see them mess the Superduke up, and I don't want a half faired RC8. The SD is a design classic. The evolution in 07, and rear end of the SDR are stunning peices of automotive design, whereas the Raptor looks like a parts bin special designed to mimic a Suzuki Katana.
The SD should remain a naked streetfighter. I'd tweak the design, but not much - updating the standard SD's rear end to look more like the SDR, then add a slipper clucth as standard, improved FI, more adjustment in riding position and suspension, maybe more modern looking swingarm, and that's about it. (although i'd like a two into one shortie or underslung zorst too)
Most bike design and spec is obsolete in a couple of years from launch, but the SD looks as cool as it did on day one. If they ruin it, I'll be buying an Aprilia!!!
...I'd like someting like this photochop job...

#17So no RC4 then ? - what a shame. A lightweight 80bhp racer would be a lot of fun without breaking the speed of sound...

#22Any of you ride dirt bikes in North America? KTMs all over the place! KTM is not going to abandon North America unless they go completely out of business.
