I am part of a small percentage of bikers that likes four stroke singles. I like the way you can lay the power down hard and early in a corner with superb feel for what the back tyre is doing. Or more importantly, about to do.
With a race track that's neither fully wet, nor fully dry all we can test in the first of the three sessions on the 900R is tooth grinding and breath holding.
It often takes a completely clean sheet to come up with something different. Surprise, surprise that's exactly what the radical orange people at KTM have done with the 125 Duke.
