KTM Motorbike Concept vrooms into superbike status

clip_image001

Inspired by low slung chopper seating positions, British designer Matt Williams has designed a superbike entitled “KTM Motorbike” that seems to pose a strong challenge to the styling and layout of contemporary motorbikes. Its hub-center steering system eliminates dive under breaking, and provides a more usable steering angle than telescopic forks while the center is more stable and predictable ride and a smaller turning core. KTM clutch cover and bodywork accent line visually break up the body and defines the KTM V twin engine concealed within the frame. The motorbike’s angular and dynamic design appears to arch forward, giving an illusion of motion to the bike’s aesthetic even while stationary.
