This KTM 125 prototype is at the EICMA show, and while we’ve said it already, it’s part of an impressive stand from KTM, showing off its “Ready to Race” philosophy.
The new naked bike is typical KTM design, and is part of the segment of 125 road racers, developed by KTM’s R&D division.
The same team that produced this bike worked on the Duke 690, while the KTM 125 look was conceived by KTM partner, Kiska Design.
Apparently it’s pure joy to ride, and we can believe it.
It features reduced weight and better handling with a powerful four-valve, liquid cooled engine with 15 hp.
The light tubular frame and new exhaust system round off what is quite a bike to behold.
The aim was to combine extreme handling with extraordinary stability, and the suspension system features WP Suspension components.
Brembo racing brakes top off the touch of exclusivity.
Next to the KTM 125 at the stand is also the Racer version, with new exhaust and a more aggressive design.
