The thing about the SMR is that they've reduced the fuel tank capacity, on the Superduke R they've actually increased it.

Sort out the fuel injection issues they seem to have (just a map adjustment on the standard ECU is my understanding) and they're fine.

The Superduke looks more radical, I wish KTM would bring out their superbike already! Bring the RC8!
