Title: New 800 Duke

Some spy photos are out of the new KTM 800 Duke. Here's the mag cover... It is a parallel twin - blasphemy!

There have been rumors for a long time of a new KTM middleweight adventure bike, perhaps it will use this engine.

Ooo..  :) I'm a fan of the P-twins, they make sense to me, size-weight-cost(i would think).
A middle weight ktm adv bike would be cool, something to compete with a F800gsa.
