The KTM 790 Duke is built around an all new and ultra compact 799c LC8c parallel twin engine. KTM claims it produces 103hp at around 9,000rpm, as well as 63.6lb-ft of torque. With 100hp and a mere dry weight of 372 pounds, this bike is looking to be quite the street machine.

Fuel Ron for your duke?
790 Duke Engine And Technical DiscussionSo the manual i think recommends 95 Ron. I've been running mine on 98 Ron. Because i just assumed that's what it would need (my car needs to so i'm used to it and know where the cheap stations are). And australian fuel is well known as being dirty and poorly tested.
