KTM 1190 Adventure: Images leaked, Ducati Multistrada competition

The latest offering from KTM could be this! If rumors and leaks in the industry are to believed, KTM 1190 Adventure is the upcoming bike from the Austrian giant two wheeler manufacturer, and the images have been leaked. For a short while, the images were posted on the official website of the company, from where it was downloaded in huge numbers. However, it seems this could be more of a publicity gimmick, since the image was soon deleted from the website. Or probably it was more of a teaser. Or else, this could be a conscious mistake from the company, since the bike is to be launched on 2nd of October officially, during the Cologne Show. Or this could be a step to gain pace with Ducati revealing Multistrada. So now that the mistake's been done and that the cat cannot be put inside the bag now, here are a few details to drool over. What the image revealed was a super slurpy bike in a rather striking, head turner color and looks.

The color is one of the oomphest part of the chassis looks. A bit modified form of RC8, it gets a V twin engine, which would give a huge power measuring to 150 bhp, it would measure a total of 235 kg. Doesn't that sound pretty much close to Multistrada, or is it just me trying to compete the two! Ok so here's a bit more. Four driving modes, loaded with multi mode anti-lock braking system, traction control, windscreen that would be adjustable, what's more, adjustable seats, it has all. With the preview, or lets be more specific the unofficial preview, the bike seems to be the IT bike! Seems Ducati has got some competition here for sure. Now, that you know the bike has all to make your thrilling speedy dream come true, don't you just wish KTM would sometime soon launch it in India too? Yeah, the sad part about this bike is that as of now there is no news of an Indian launch as yet.
