You were asking about vespa security some time back. Now I remember. Heh heh...

 

On another note, do post here how responsive is this engine once you get a chance to ride it.

 

The looks of the bike is pretty tempting. Fuel injection and 6 speed are plus points for me.

Duke responsiveness? Compared to? It's on individual preference. Best test ride it for yourself at DirtWheel.

 

Do note that the riding position is superb for 2b street bike. It's a cross between street / SM.

For me it's more of a love at first sight thing, maybe Less the tail license holder.

Can't imagine myself on another street bike, it was either the derbi adventure or the duke...

But more importantly my wife approve the bike haha.....

+1.... actually I had my 2b license for 15 years till a serious accident stopped me biking. It was only when I saw the 125 duke which revived my love for 2b bikes (and biking in general). now... gonna take class 2a > 2 and then ultimately get my dream bike KTM duke 990 R.

 

seriously no other 2b bikes look so this good regardless of how much it cost. think Mr Ong should now charge S$10.5K instead... hee hee. good for us early buyers.

I'm pretty sure Duke990R will not be on top of your list by then. duke 1290R coming in 2012/2013. :)
