I loved riding my 950Sm but never really liked the fat looks of it. If it had looked like that, I'd have kept it!

Most of it is ok, but that instrument binnacle needs sorting out. (or removing)

Honestly you could have stuck a picture of any KTM from the past 5 years and you’d struggle to tell the difference.

Cutting edge innit had morphed into let’s stick a different engine into it, change a few details and see how many we can punt out.

Got a bit of the Dorsduro about it, does it come with a set of ladders or a pull out step?

Looking again there's something not right about that front mudguard for me - looks a bit GS'y

I think it's a great effort. There are a few things that don't sit perfectly but overall it's a bit of a belter and I imagine it rides awesome.

The standard 1190 is absolutely no slouch and regularly embarrasses bikes that it really shouldn't, so if they've got that chassis and the tuning right it should be ab absolute weapon.
