What we have here is a means of getting from A to B when you're not restricting yourself to boring old roads. Pavements, gardens, parks, shopping malls - this little screamer could handle them all without breaking a sweat.
From a technical perspective it's a (semi) street-legal KTM 250 supermotard and, in real life, it would be pushing out about 45bhp in a package weighing just 96kg. Fun, fun, fun!
From a scale perspective it's Tamiya's KTM 250MX which has been converted to street use by fitting:
i) extended forks from a Moto Guzzi,
ii) single front disc from a Ducati,
iii) scratchbuilt nose fairing,
iv) scratchbuilt clocks and wiring,
v) widened rear wheel to take a Kawasaki tyre and disc,
vi) a seat unit from a Yamaha R1 (modified to blend into the KTM seat), and
vii) a sprinkling of urban camouflage decals.
Hold on tight, this bike's in a hurry!
