Well lets see what Lenny boy has to say about this one.......

Personally I think it looks too much like a Predator, but looks are not everything

........but the Honda is real; the more I look at it the more I think it's a photoshop by the Italian site I pulled it off.
We'll find out soon enough.... |

| Looks like a cobbled together DS650. I don't think any quad will come out with beadlocks. |

My italian isn't as fluent as it used to be so i don't dare translating for you, but the general gist of the article was the same press release we have all read before. It starts off by saying that "a KTM quad in 2006 is practically inevitable following the recent partnership between KTM & Polaris". I couldn't find any new information in there. Certainly nothing claiming the pic to be authentic.
I would suggest that the pic is a photoshop rendition.

| Thats a relief, surely KTM wouldnt release such a "profanity removed" looking Quad, I would imagine they would be releasing a 450 if they want to enter the market seriously ! |

Yes according to a post i read on LTR450HQ there could be news of the KTM as early as next week
That photo is a photoshop Pred with KTM front guards and lights.
Imagine if they released one with the LC8 V-Twin. I would need wheelie bars but would be awsome in races like Finke, Baja, Dakah, Roof of Africa, Race to the Sky and Pikes Peak and so on

| Guys u got it all wrong. This shows what happens if a cheap chinese import atv , a predator 500 & a hammerhead shark have sex, u get that KTM. As far as the colour goes maybe they used an orange somewhere in the foreplay. Mother nature can be so cruel |

I dont know that I like it but I do like the idea of an Outlaw thats 20kg lighter and has a $hit load more power...... |

| it's about time someone had the guts to try a new concept. Can't wait to have a ride. The std outlaw glides through hard edged bumps like crazyand does'nt swap when on the gas. Absolutely fab for rough tracks. |

KTM are not going to put there sweet motor in a poo cart Polaris predator chassis,a little birdie told me that it is coming more race ready than anything else out there and looks nothing like a predator,it also has a lot of after market extras straight out of the box and it will be in the US fairly soon

Well there it is, a poo cart with a KTM 510cc motor. I do believe KTM will have race ready quad as Luke says, but for now this is it.
