I really like KTMs. Performance, handling and orange. But, man are they ugly! Especially that adventure look!
Street bike aught to look like a street bike.

You mean like the RC8? Same engine, sportbike looks (and gorgeous)!
I like having a choice thanks...this is an adventure bike that actually does what the looks promise, unlike 75% of the "adventure" bikes on the market. If you are planning to get it dirty, then it is already gorgeous...just add mud.

Beauty is certainly in the eye of the beholder. And, to me, this look of motorcycle is beautiful.
Congrats on the new beast! Now, go find your inner Marc Coma.
