The older I have gotten...the more motorcycling reminds me of piloting....on the ground....although...I am not a Pilot...I have been in an around alot of aviation....what IS the aviation equivalent to the 990 ?
This is what I thought of the very first time I laid eyes on a 950. Something about all the sharp angles that KTM is known for:
Nah...that thing is more like my other bike :) http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-t3bgWKsuj8A/Tj4XsBmUY8I/AAAAAAAAE-E/hIqHKLJrLkE/s1600/2009-KTM-RC8R-4.jpg You can really see the family traits though...
No fair just linking to a picture that damn sexy. And yes, you definitely see the same "stealth" lines when you look at KTM products:
cool pix...to me...a P-51...raw...not sophisticated....requires attention during throttle up....and makes me fucking smile : )
X-Bow...yummy piece of engineering - what's funny to me is that it uses the same exact gauge cluster for a dashboard as my RC8R. How's that for efficient use of parts-bin products :)
Except theres nothing stealthy about them when they have a pair of Akro's fitted But yeah first time I saw one I thought the same, a cross between a stealth fighter and Robby the Robot.
A10's kick ass...personal experience when those come out everyone on the other side goes the fuck inside...absolutely awesome to have close air support with those on station.
