Carbon Fibre race bikes, and a KTM makes it debut on the BSB Motostar rostrum

I also had some top ten 250cc Grand Prix finishes although I was totally gutted when my team mate Donnie McLeod topped me by finishing 2nd in the Belgian GP at Spa.

KTM 790 Duke Returns for 2022

The 790 was dropped completely for the 2021 model year, replaced by a new non-R 890 Duke.
