Anyone ridden KTM 690 Duke?

[IndyFZ6]

So at the Motorbeurs in Utrecht yesterday, I sat on the KTM 690 Duke. Felt very comfortable, nice upright seating position, I know it would be comparing apples and oranges to compare a 690 single to the inline 4 of the FZ6, just curious if anyone has ridden one and your impressions? Seems like it could be a blast for commuting.

Link takes me to ebay. Sure that's not what you did, I think it happens automatically.

Sorry. I didn't even try to set up a link. This 21st century tech is smarter than me sometimes.

I've got a 690 Enduro r, so slightly different to the Duke but same engine.
If your riding involves a lot of motorway/highway work then I'd say it's not ideal.
If it's fast twisty roads, tight twisty roads them you'll have a blast. Around town is excellent, instant grunt in traffic light Grand Prix's - you'll struggle to keep the front down.
