Yes it does, doesn't it.

I wish Motogp rules would allow more innovation.

It looks crap. The Honda looks well thought out before they decided to start building it.

The KTM looks like a shed project.

My thoughts too Cookie, definitely tube framing running up under the tank, where the Honda has box framing. Visually it's hard to make motoGP bikes look too dramatically different apart from color, so I guess they are both black.
Happiness is not a destination. It is a way of life.
