Well said ::008:: ::008::Checkswrecks said:The KTM looks great.
The Beemer is - yawn - more of the same. Now with water. Press will wet their pants over it though.
But it's in the eye of the beholder, I guess, since I think the new VStrom is a fugly ripoff of the Beemer.
Yeah, in the picture, the red color at the (IMHO) stupid beak, they look much the same - but I would be happy to see the DL1000 continue in life - with some needed upgrades like ABS, etc.Checkswrecks said:I think the new VStrom is a fugly ripoff of the Beemer.
It's a "concept" hence it is subject to change before production. Concept's are feelers for OEM's to guage public input. nothing more nothing less. I suspect it'll look very similar to the new Wee Strom 650 in the end. At least the front end will resemble current 650. We will have to wait and see.liguorien said:Gosh.... That V-Strom is uggggly.
Not a concept that is an actual production unit that will see the dealers floors in 2013.troll said:That KTM concept sure looks sweet ::008::
::026::switchback said:Every adventure bike the USA sees is a good thing. There is nothing harder than pleasing everyone and more options help spread out the suite of capabilities. Really there is no direct competition with bikes in a category that can see anything from world record attempts, round the world travel, Pike's Peak records, paved touring, trails from hell....
First, it's the Intermot. Lots of vaporware there.jackfis said:On display at the 2012 Intermot moto show...new GS, KTM Adventure and 2014 Vstrom...
