just out of curiosity where did you find that pic? B/C I went to the MotoGP race @ Indy Sept 14th and they had a KTM tent they had the RC8 (same bike as the venom) which is there new production sportbike, and it looked almost identical minus the front end. This is what it actually looks like below, same colors they had at the race. Specs are: 1148cc V-Twin; 155HP; 414lbs [![http://img26.picoodle.com/data/img26/3/9/23/f_ktmrc83m_702efb6.jpg](http://img26.picoodle.com/data/img26/3/9/23/f_ktmrc83m_702efb6.jpg)](http://www.picoodle.com/view.php?img=/3/9/23/f_ktmrc83m_702efb6.jpg&srv=img26) ---
