If you care about fuel effficiency then KTM should definitely not be in your shortlist.

The Super Duke R is a hyper-naked with a one-track mind focused on performance. Photo by Spurgeon Dunbar. The 1290 SAS features a semi-active electronic suspension with nearly double the amount of travel over the SDR. 1290 super adventure owners beware!

I've put 24,000 miles on my Kawasaki Versys in three years. Most of these miles are on trips around the U.S. from my home base in STL(a lot of road riding). Out of these miles I'm sure only around 200-300 are on non-paved roads.
