I knew that could not be the only one on the face of the Earth when he saw the preparations for the KTM Duke 690 EJC serves as the basis for the European Junior Cup KTM had fallen madly in love.
Surely there are few people more and KTM has realized quickly because it will take to sell a super-exclusive limited edition of 200 units KTM Duke 690 called Track, identical to those used in competition.
To start and on the basis of a KTM Duke 690, the engine has been tweaked with another camshaft and modified the air box. The exhaust is made entirely of titanium Akrapovic and for all this to render properly, it was given a specific injection map. In all, the power gain is about 9 hp, 79 hp left in total for a single cylinder...!
In the part of the KTM Duke 690 cycle Track receives a new fully adjustable WP fork Race also raises the bike 15mm. Behind the shock of origin can only be regulated in preload is replaced by a fully adjustable. However, both the chassis and the sub frame remain unchanged.
If we jump on the brakes, remember that the KTM Duke 690 Street ABS equipped. However, as this model is not approved for road anti-lock system has been dismantled and instead receives racing Brembo brakes with new radial four-piston calipers and thicker discs to hold the most power braking.
As for the body, receives several pieces Power Parts Catalog. The seat is new, much stronger and can move more easily from side to side on track. Renthal handlebar is narrower and the stirrups are placed further back and higher, to get a sportier and prevent rubbing in the corners.
And all this for how you may ask? Well, currently there is definitive price but since KTM say that will be below € 10,000. I win the lottery, that I win the lottery, that I win the lottery ... Because from KTM also ensure that their consumption is about 7 l/100. And that, the price moves now really is the fuel pump also.
