    They done debuted the bike. It's pretty. Looks like the Honder with a trellis frame.

    Knowing Ktm, I'd imagine it'll be a good bike.

    When they decide to do something, they fucking out in the work.

    Perfect example- SX
    Another example-moto3

    Front end looks like they copied a schwinn lemon peeler. Just "off" compared to most others.

    Yes they pulled the plug when Kenny didn't have the funding that was promised.

    I'm surprised daveK didn't bring up those false reports about Ktm screwing sr

    Wasn't false at all. What years did you work at KTM again?

    You think borrowed some of the tech from that goat herding 390 abortion? I wonder if it actually has bearings in the swing arm pivot. Hopefully they didn't stick the air intake in an area of low pressure like the did on the goat herders moped.

    Damn, cool photos in that. Click on them and you can count the number of fly turds in the paint. :up:

    The WP forks/ brakes/ wheel/ front fender make that front look weird.

    I've never worked for Ktm.

    I've been a Ktm dealer for about 15 years.

    One of my best buds has been in just about every Ktm technical position including moto3, Ktm SX and world gp mx.

    He still works for them and travels to Austria often.

    He also is good friends with a couple guys at akra. He's my go-to when I need the custom dual exhaust for my Ktm after i demolish them.

    He's also a big reason i scored a legit Ktm factory sm bike with custom works frame, subframe, carbon airbox and all.

    So, in other words, I've got solid info instead of superbike planet;)

    I know you love that reference!

    Nice.

    What reference, Dean's site? Why would I love it or even put more than a passing thought to it?

    I think the bike looks great. They are a few seconds off the pace with average riders. Pol and Brad should be able to get them a little closer.

    In other words, all of your information is hearsay?
