Graphics arrived from Italy.
Have to say, really impressed with the quality of them.

You like em’ to stand out don’t you.. 😆
Can I ask, those graphics .. did you design them ?
Can't quite decide if it is

or

But as long as you're happy, all is good.

Can’t take you seriously if you have no Akra or the like fitted.

The days of an aftermarket exhaust making all that much difference to the sound are passing by. The stock exhaust on mine sounds exactly the same (which is AMAZING) as the Akropovic option.

go mental I say! 😆
I don't even have a license for a motor, I do fancy getting a bike license though, a black one of those would be cool! (I know nothing about bikes mind!)
Can I ask, those graphics .. did you design them ?
A couple of slight modifications to their theme. Including my old race number and my name.
For ****s sake, don't drop it now and scratch you stickers! 😉
Rachel, yeah I think you’re right there, my 690 when being put back to standard sounded alright but nothing like the akra with baffle out.
Was like thunder sound every blip of the throttle with that setup.
Made my ears nearly bleed.

Made my ears nearly bleed.
And that's why I run a stock exhaust.
But hang about, if you’re caring for your ears WHY notyour eyes too? 😆
Ha ha ha!

Just messing! 😀
Stickers look nice but the front mudguard looks a bit gash.
Graphics? Go to the front of the class
Front mudguard? D- See me after class.
Hopefully it won’t go the way of my last KTM. Nicked, ragged around by a load of scrotes, then torched 🙁
Dunno why, can't quite place it. But this thread does make me crave a nice cold refreshing

Sorry Weeksy, that's filed under monstrosity.
Am I alone in quite liking it?
Not sure about the headlight area graphics (headlight faring?) – blue looks a little heavy above the orange. But the rest, yeah, I like!

Happily, i'm one of the minority too. I think it looks brilliant.
Couple of minor debates in my head regarding the front mudguard and whether it needs something for that too. They do this one for the mudguard, but i'm worried it's a bit too much.

Luckily/happily, these are all on replacement plastics which are insanely cheap from KTM, so all of this is instantly reversible when it comes to selling. However, i'm in no rush for that.
Have a gliff at this website if you are into motorcycling in interesting places:

I also really like it!
Looks almost factory (..bar the HYENA IT aspect)

Strangely looks alright now!
Betterer... paint the exhaust and the belly pan black and I think your heading in the right direction..
Think there was too much white tbh.
It was never a looker but it's worse now, I'm usually a fan of KTMs aswell.
It’s all the fussy thin white lines that spoil it for me, and I rather prefer solid orange panels on KTM’s anyway.
