A
bout five years ago, my Aussie mag had a KTM 690
Duke long termer. Didn't think much of it at first, but
after that first ride I was hooked like a single-cylinder
junkie madman frothing at the ears. That Duke was every-
thing a bike should be. Looked sharp, went like a skinned
snake, and went even harder once we threw a bunch of KTM
Powerparts at it. Man, I loved that bike.
