    If people could issue accolades to the weird design of new zmr, why cannot RC390? For aerodynamic friendly, the bike has to be test-ridden and I do not think the KTM engineers just offer any thing to bike lovers to make their presence felt! BICHAR KIJIYE...

    This bike(in fact all KTMs) is visual villainy. The front doesn't evoke admiration, but meanness and fright.
    The difference between the RC 390 and say the 1290 superduke is that the former is a bit more suave villain, may be like the Bane/Ducard but the latter is absolutely mental like the Joker.
    The new ZMR may be likened to a bollywood caricature villain..which tickles more than it scares. Shakti Kapoor anyone?

          I hope there is going to be a pillion seat on the production version !

          BTW, they must do something about the exhaust note too, the D390 blat won't sound right on a sports bike.

                  Maybe that would be the case..
                  you can see the one on the right is a projector, while the left one is normal.. ​(it looks to me like that)

                      That visor would need weekly cleaning for sure...it can be used a bug catcher !!!

                                It kinda looks fine to me.. They won't bring out a thin sports bike..
                                Form these pics on the website that other member posted (thanks for that), the rider looks good..
                                We'll know with more pics coming out..
