The secondary sub-frame was created along with an original fuel tank, a new retro-style cushioned seat, a new belly pan and the final comfort touch was imparted via a modern carbon fiber cowl.KTM 450 by Vitium Moto Is An Unconventional Motorcycle KTM 450 by Vitium Moto Is An Unconventional Motorcycle 2 KTM 450 by Vitium Moto Is An Unconventional Motorcycle 3 KTM 450 by Vitium Moto Is An Unconventional Motorcycle 4
