Never heard of the guy or his bikes... but a GSXR1000 K4 in a KTM 690 chasis.... got to be bloody entertaining !!!!







Ktm 1000 supermoto



Here is my Ktm 1000



I've had this bike since 2015 and started life as a Ktm 690



I had it 5 years, after this I met a guy called Chris Thorpe who has built a few of these 1000cc supermotos



Was just never done in a Ktm 690 chassis

After a few months he had it completed



The running gear Came from a complete gsxr1000 k4 with 16000 miles on it



Brembo master cylinder



I added stiffer suspension and had it set up at actiforce racing along with a remap which made 140hp



It does have wiring for lights I've just never needed them



Then decided it needed some

Cosmetic mods



So along came alpina wheels ,hyrodipped graphics and decals fitted



I have a build thread of photos which I will show to the buyer.



It is road legal and registered as a husqvarna 577 (up to the new owner to change the engine size) has a current mot can't remember how long



I mainly road it at cadwell.

A KTM 690 frame with gixxer thou engine and registered as a Husky 577. That sounds fully legal!

Be good fun depending on how bendy the frame might be with 140bhp
