Maybe it's something with manufacturer policy.

No price has been announced yet. But based on the superduke's price of $15k, my guess is around 17 or 18 large.

Kinda steep. I'd rather have a LE R1.

The rc8 is a twin and will be fairly rare though...
Now you're talking... the rc8 is being aimed directly at the 1098 base model, it's pretty clear. I wonder if they'll come out with hopped-up versions to attack the s?

You mean the R? The "S" just get you Ohlins, track data computer, and a few other goodies.

I don't know why people are so surprised about KTM making kick-ass sport bikes/street bikes. They have been making smallbore GP bikes for the longest. What goes around, comes around. People are surprised about the aprilia RXV dirt bikes. The first Aprilias were dirt bikes. Quote:
One of these days the Japs are going to realize that it takes more than just an overpowered engine and fancy bolt-ons to make a performance bike.
