Been collecting some interesting rumours re new bikes coming down the line.

Wonder if any are true. This is not an Aprilia Pfuhl story - Seriaaas stuff.

Rumour 1 - Ftrom a guy at the Ducatti stand at the extreme auto show.

Ducatti are to malke a DS bike. There has been a Kit in USA to convert a 998 to a DS bike and Ducatti are oficializing it into the range as a legit offering.

Rumour 2 - From a KLR website.

The KLE 500 is to be upgraded to a gen-you-wine KLE650 using the // injected twin from the Versys and a frame like a KLE500/KLR650 blend.

Rumour 3 - from an okie at the Yammie stand at the extreme auto show

Yamaha have a // twin 1000cc Tenere in the pipeline - back to the old 750 tenere type machine but injection and based on two side-by-side 660s .

Rumour 4 - from a BMW on-line forum

An adventure variant of the f800GS.

Rumour 5 - suspect this may be official now. Been about for a while.

a KTM 690 adventure - injected and upgraded 640.

Anyone got any good spies out there ?
