2016 KTMs

1290 GT just unveiled in Milan :





Early pics so crap quality.

I wonder if the 1290 SA will come in a more interesting colour than previously ?

I like the look of that

I read that there are no colour changes for the SA.

There is a new digital dash being introduced across the range. Maybe not all in 2016 though?
It doesn't look great from the 1 pic I've seen.

@ DavyF - is the deposit refundable?

 

[Arsey]

Quite like that !

Looks good, I wonder what the seat height is? Is that the oil cooler slung low to catch the crap off the front wheel?

 

[Nice 'n' Fat]

Probably just a trim panel for oil tank

Nice 'n' Fat is correct - the oil cooler is the black rectangle on the side of the engine nestling in the curve of the rad hose.

Could be a hoover pipe for sucking up all the XRs....

Seat height 835mm.

Now on UK website here.

And yup,1290 SA looks unchanged !

This bit made me chortle

The 1290 Super Duke R got us thinking. What if we could match The Beast’s interstellar performance to all day, two-up comfort?

Not if you're going to keep that seat from the 1290 Super Duke you're not

Ooooooosh ...... KTM's reaction to the XR much?

 

[DING-DONG]

Redline in Loughborough are now taking deposits, bike is £15999

It's just a dummy cowling, the sides hide a plastic trim that prevent stones hitting the engine.

Are you getting one?

 

[DING-DONG]

Are you getting one?

Well, I've sold this .

To buy this, I wanted a Pikes Peak

But it ain't worth £19k, it's a step back, manual ohlins ! No Q-shifter, it's just a paint job and a splash of carbon.

So the 1290 might just be what I'm looking for less orange tho.

Isn't the PP just a paint job? Why not just put those panels on the bike with all the stuff you want?

There's a bit more to it than a paint job ! if you wanted to do a pp replica you would be better off buying a non S multi @ £11995 then the S-model as per mine.

 

[Arsey]

Does look nice !!

Why did you get the Kwak, when you knew this was coming out?
