It is also a bike with a particular aesthetic, with its strange menacing face. But it has charm, but not beauty.
It is a bike that we love for the sensations that it gives, and not for its pure beauty because honestly it has not got any... 
In fact it is a real Supermoto, lightly disguised as a roadster, very lightly.
It is more a Supermotard but only designed for this purpose. Some will say that this bike is only for show-off guys... maybe.
And we all admit that it looks like a modern rebel bike.
And to make it more radical, KTM offers in options some good parts like an antihopping clutch, Hydrolic clutch lever (two fingers), silencers made by Akrapovic, orange chain kit, and high performance break pads... But most of all for show-off guys, but only at home, tyre warmers... 
With parts like these, the mean bike could easily become insane...
