Based on the suspension onboard, I think it's US R&D doing setting testing for the latest batch of WP XACT Pro Components on the new bikes. That bike has CV forks on it.

That way the stuff is ready and available when the production versions hit dealers and probably available prior to that for the incoming Factory and Rockstar Editions.

Yeah, they were swapping out the fork all day, I saw two sets at least get changed.

And Peelout, you are right, the photos are shitty quality, because I was too busy RIDING MY MOTORCYCLE to care about focus or composition.

KTM guys requested no close up pics, so this is what you get.

Yeah, when I came home from the track I found they were .0000435 NM too tight, which totally explains my shitty riding today...

Here’s a closeup of the 23 KTM production bike today at Glen helen, just for you Peely.

I used a Tomato with a zoom lens instead of a potato this time…
