25 hp KTM Duke 200 in USA

KTM has surprised everybody by offering the smaller 200cc Duke in the US. A few dealers have them on the showroom floor already.
-Why does it matter? Because the Duke 200 has 25 HP and an MSRP $3999.
However;
While the MSRP of the Duke 200 is only $1,300 more than the Lifan KP 200, the little Dukes are sold in brick and mortar stores.
-I doubt you can drive a Duke 200 out of the dealer for less than $4,800.
-At times, internet vendors will sell the Lifan KP 200s for less than MSRP. If you can find such a deal, the KP costs a little more than half of the Duke 200 (and the Lifan has over 2/3 of the hp of the KTM).
-We now have many affordable choices in the US for a 25 hp bike; $3999 KTM, $4000ish CSC or a $5000ish RE Himalayan. Its a good problem to have.
