1290S New Colur

Suspect that they will stay the same - KTM tend not to change colours, the 1190's stayed pretty much the same throughout their model runs.

They only ever seem to do 3 colours ; orange with a little black, black with a little orange and finally white with a little orange&black :D

what about grey with a little orange ;)
 
There’s silver with some orange accents coming, apparently.
 
Can’t beat a bit of orange to help with autumn/winter blues... I highly recommend it!

….at least we should not see any tacky gold wheels :D

Exactly my cheeky point , that was a great colour scheme IMHO but they seem to be stuck in a little rut at the moment with colours . Pop into your local KTM and it’s a sea of orange , black and of course grey . Nothing quite jumps out at you, like the pic you posted or the the all white 990 they did. Even the all black 990 looked better because it was a gloss whereas the current fashion amongst most manufacturers is the muted Matt/Satin colours and finish.
 
Hope Nutty did not get too excited - think I prefer the 2017/18 colours ;)





Not sure about the Grey frame either :nenau

I agree, which is good news as I'm sure my 2017 SA-S (in the best orange/white colour scheme) is going to get a better trade-in value now :aidan

At some angles the wheels/ frame look black. I hope they haven’t gone grey.

I’m leaning towards the grey bike. With a black Wings, black headers and a few orange add ons, it should look pretty cool.

It looks like the screen & screen adjuster has changed as well. Anyone noticed any other changes?

Yep 4 fifths of nothing compared to 3 fifths of nothing :D

Certainly happy to hang onto my 2017 Black one ;)

Wheels look to be black to me but main frame is grey and subframe black in the photos.
Yes definitely showing a larger adjuster knob for the screen but everything else looks to be identical to the 2017/18 bikes.

You could well be right, but then the other way to look at it is that if I can't resist the urge to change then I'll offer it for sale at the trade-in price, and someone is going to be able to get a proper bargain.

I consider this a public service ;)

I'm with you on that. I like an Orange frame...
 
Frame definitely not grey . It’s like a satin black

that grey one looking lovely!
 
I like the Orange one, still think the Orange and white one I just ordered looks nicer though :)
