KTM's PR Manager – Street, Luke Brackenbury,
said at the event, “KTM listens to its customers
and dealers throughout the world and the
demand for a very hardcore, mid-capacity
Adventure bike was something that was
repeatedly raised. Make no mistake, this new
KTM will be the most performance-focused
middleweight travel enduro on the market with
a spec sheet to rival machines of a much bigger
displacement.”
The new bike looks like it'll bring serious
offroad capabilities to a road-biased machine.
Full details of the bike will be revealed at
EICMA, Milan on November 6, 2018.
