It's that time of year again when I start thinking about changing bikes and the conclusion I've come to is that a KTM LC4 or Duke II might suit what I enjoy doing more, namley blatting about down bumpy B roads and minor A roads. The 10 is a great bike but not really suited for proper back roads and I'm either going to end up losing my licence on the main roads or having a prang elswhere. I can't afford to give it the track time it deserves and TBH probably wouldn't want to. Having looked about I think for what I could get for my 10 I'd be able to buy a new Duke or a nearly new LC4. Has anybody got any experience of these bikes (I had a blast on my XT350 although I realise they are probably worlds apart from it) or any recomendations for similar? Obviously I'd want to arrange a test ride before considering a purchase but I'm always interested in other peoples opinions/experiences (well mostly any way). Whats the going rate for a 1 year old ZX10r with 4.5k on the clock, FSH and balance of warranty - I thought about £6500 looking at whats about?
