The KTM 1290 Super Duke R!
 
So, many of you may have seen the prototype for the new duke!
YouTube Video

An alleged 185bhp v-twin naked bike well under 200kgs. Yes please!

However, this topic is more about the value of the used 990 Dukes..

See, I have a **** job, so no 1290 for me, but the 990.. I think I want one this year, but I'm thinking when this bike is launched octoberish, the 990s may get a bit cheaper as they will no longer be close to being the fastest or biggest.

What does the Org think, could a faster bike make the 990 less desirable and therefore cheaper?

New bikes from the range always devalue the older bikes, but this is more pronounced when the model is very similar.

Here's for hoping!
