some good pics of the new SD during testing with clear view of the rear SSS the shock absorber is still linked ‘normaly’ not on the side say like the Panigale.
But I hope that isnt the exhaust they will release it with

Still very superduke looking … bit ugly … goes well
Hmmm, I hope it doesn’t come out too soon
From what I’ve read and these pics, I think it’s very promissing
yes please
ps can a mod change the title as its now out of date (its 1290 no 1190)
what the f*ck have they done to the headlight… it looks like it’s having a sulk!!!
The rest of the bike looks great, but that does let the whole thing down!
dont think thats the actual headlight as there are no instument panel. prob like they did in 2008
as suspected this isn’t quite a production bike, yet. Instead, it’s a fully-functional concept.
had me worried there…
Love it - want one- but don’t it’s for the likes of me - yet…
Very masculine and agressive looking, love the ‘just threw some orange in the general direction’ paint job and the etched “Ready for this?” - if that stays on the retailed versions, it would probably make me buy it, for that reason alone - it just promises so much and I just know from the big grins I see on KTM riders faces - that it’s going to deliver.
I’m getting impatient waiting to be good and/or experienced enough to ride something like this!
That is going to be a right handful (of wheelies!)
that is sexy
Want one where do I sign
I’m pretty sure the production version is going to be somewhat different. Those forks look like the super expensive race things (see cartridges above the calipers). KTM generally load their bikes with top quality components, but that’s probably a bit out of reach.
I bet it’ll be loaded with electronic gizmos like the adventure, but I hope they’re not too intrusive and they keep that “raw” feeling of the current
I’m baffled by the exhausts… you have one akro to the side and one going at the bottom of the bike?
it looks like that to me too, bet it sounds awesome
I noticed that too, very strange. might be it limits the noise while at low speed/revs then goes open headers when ridden hard :w00t:
Have KTM just created the first exhaust surround sound system? :w00t:
