Author Message   Mad_doctor Posted on Friday, March 29, 2013 - 07:51 am:        Hey all, I'm thinking I may be in lust again. The new KTM 1190 just may be my next ride. They claim she is the new Ducati killer. The problem is, it's not going to be here until October! claimed 150bhp, 26 lbs lighter than the GS, (25hp more than the GS), and a front tire that allows for softer terra firma. Just what we all need. 6 gallons of petrol. she looks great ! I am going to have a hard time waiting.   Conchop Posted on Friday, March 29, 2013 - 08:40 am:        I want one too ...   Ratman Posted on Friday, March 29, 2013 - 09:31 am:        Comparing a KTM to a GS performance wise is like comparing a Uly to a Triumph Scrambler They will be screamers no doubt.   Hughlysses Posted on Friday, March 29, 2013 - 10:08 am:        If you wait 'til October, you may just have the opportunity to compare it against the EBR 1190AX (fingers crossed).   Red450 Posted on Friday, March 29, 2013 - 11:11 am:        I'm starting to develop some serious orange lust. The 990 ADV/SMT and now the 1190.   Rwcfrank Posted on Friday, March 29, 2013 - 11:31 am:        I was looking seriously at the MTS but having owned a KTM for the last few years I am starting to change my mind. The MTS is IMHO the best looking bike out there but the ktm is insane. There is a vid over on ADVRIDER that shows the seriousness of the power. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=gfBCdooSiwE (Message edited by rwcfrank on March 29, 2013) (Message edited by rwcfrank on March 29, 2013)   Portero72 Posted on Friday, March 29, 2013 - 02:29 pm:        As an owner of a 2010 SMT, I can safely say they are amazing machines. VERY different personalities from a Buell, but chuckle-in-my-helmet impressive every time I ride it. I am sure the new ADV will be absolutely amazing.
