Living with the 2017 KTM 1290 Super Duke R - Long Term Review

I've had the pleasure of riding the fabulous 2017 KTM Super Duke R for the last few weeks and have got to know the bike pretty well. In this video I review "The Beast" in different riding scenarios, for example riding at night, in the wet, in town and so on and conclude my own list of positive and negatives about the bike - I also address the specific areas that were requested of me via Facebook and Twitter. Finally I look in detail at the cost of ownership of the Super Duke R and try out the infamous launch control! In short, this is my most comprehensive review of any bike to date....stay tuned!
