The KTM Duke That Started it All
So this past weekend I traded my daily rider '15 KTM 390 Duke for the OG, a '96 Duke 620. As solid, comfortable and reliable as the 390 has been, I have lusted after the 1st generation model since they were introduced during my college days. So far, no regrets.

You need to research if this 620 motor had the problems with the bearing under the clutch basket. I know the LC4 (which had several over the years) had this but not sure if Duke was exact same motor. Most problems came up around 4000 mile mark.
More Info here
I owned several LC4's ranging 610, 620 to 690. I used to ride ECEA enduros on the 610.
