There's a link here that goes to the original article, but seems like all the comments are here. I couldn't help but chime in.

EDIT: Dangit, my vertical dyslexia kicked in and I misspelled KTM. And I can't edit the title. Oh well!

I would like to see the whole article. Sounds like it will probably be more of the same KTM and Duc stealing the show with bikes that cost a few thousand more.

I would have to disagree with you there Swordsman...it is truly a FULL-A$$ED review.

A review of a review. By someone who is a stone-cold benchracer.

Probably a kid with a bicycle.

Even the original review from faster&faster is pathetically thin. Couldn't be more than two or three sentences about each bike.

Its actually twice removed, the link on faster and faster is just a teaser of another review from Moto Revue, a french publication it seems.

Found this. Not sure if it's the same, I can't see the other link at work.
