La KTM est et reste la nakedbike la plus brutale du marché. La position d'assise droite combinée à la puissance sauvage du V2 la font paraître plus brutale qu'elle ne l'est sur le papier. Elle a été améliorée avec précision sur ses principaux points faibles. Le moteur tourne désormais plus doucement, l'assistant de changement de vitesse apporte du calme lors des phases d'accélération et le châssis a été amélioré. Elle aime toujours autant la course effrénée que la vitesse élevée dans les longs virages.
