We have already told you about the new 690cc engine that will replace the current LC4 640. After this weekends dealer convention in Mattighofen it has now been confirmed. See the pictures of a wild new 690 SM supermoto with new diamond shaped front headlight and decals that takes clues from the 950 Super Enduro. The styling is very sharp and aggressive. perfect for a top end supermotard. Up front KTM has added a single huge wavy disc. The other new bike that was presented in Austria was a redesigned 990 Superduke. The 2007 model gets radial mounted brake callipers, new instruments, slightly redesigned front cowling and a bigger fuel tank. KTM also showed a mad looking Drag racer with 990 Superduke front. We suspect that this drag racer has very little in common with the Superduke though. Perhaps there is a big thumping Victory V-twin in it? No sign of the 690 Duke III yet.
