Awesome Ktm

Scooters don’t get much more awesome than Pipermoto’s J Series. Created by bike customizer John Piper, this handcrafted scooter not only looks amazing, it’s perfectly balanced and crazy quick. It’s powered by a 690cc KTM LC4 Duke engine that makes 67 hp and zooms from 0-to-60 mph in 4.0 seconds on its way to a top speed of 120 mph.

Based on the race-winning KTM X-BOW GT2, the X-BOW GT-XR is designed for the street. It’s powered by Audi’s legendary 2.5L 5-cylinder engine, tuned to produce 493 bhp and 428 lb-ft. of torque. Its jet fighter-inspired canopy, wedge shape, and large rear wing are optimized for downforce and low drag.

Freestyle motorcyclist and stunt rider Rok Bagoros headed to a sawmill in Slovenia to kick up some sawdust, first by drifting his bike between the timber, then by replacing the rear wheel of his 180 hp KTM 1290 Super Duke R EVO with a circular saw blade.

The latest masterpiece from motorcycle customizer Max Hazan of Hazan Motorworks. He describes it as being “light, cheap, and fast.” All true, but he fails to point out the beauty of his handiwork, from the aluminum tank to the one-of-a-kind rear brake. More on Bike EXIF.

Awesome news for streetbike aficionados: KTM is bringing all of its bikes to the US, from its 690/990 Duke/Super Duke naked bikes to the range-topping, drool-inducing RC8 R Superbike.

Celebrating one year since the first production vehicle, the X-Bow Superlight is their premium model with carbon fiber body panels and wheel covers, LSD, and a crash box.

Designed by six industrial design students at FH Joanneum University, these KTM Concept Vehicles posit everything from hydrofoil boats to a turbine-propelled flight vehicle.

Not satisfied to dominate the streets with the X-Bow, KTM’s Barracuda concept promises to conquer the waves with a sleek, dagger-shaped hydrofoil; it’s designed for circuit races.

The X-Bow looks like an amped-up go-cart, but this mini roadster packs a 220hp turbo 2.0 liter from Audi (with up to 300hp). KTM hopes to bring a street legal version to the US soon.
