It could be a 450 SMR, or perhaps a 450 SX-F, but it’s so tricked out it’s hard to tell. Almost nothing seems to be stock on this bike. Thierry Van Den Bosch’s KTM MTR Team supermoto is one of the trickest I have ever seen.

Team MTR goes quite far with their modifications. base bike is a 2012 SMR I believe. they chopped the head stem and welded it back on at a different angle. crossbar in between the lower frame lubes to increase stiffness, same thing could be found on the previous generations SMR. in house made swingarm and linkage as well.
with all that said, I wouldn’t mind if they parked one of those MTR KTM’s in my garage…

So I know this isn’t what everybody is drooling over, but are there any details on that lift? Stand? “Bike-lift” returns nothing of the sort searching. Looks like it might be too rich for my blood… but nice. Maybe there’s a full-size photo that happens to reveal the details of that data plate, if nobody knows?

That stand is a pretty standard design that’s relatively cheap. I picked up one from Motorcycle Superstore for 90 bucks i think.(it was a few yrs ago) Works really well for my SM510R. It’s adjustable height and really sturdy. All Alum Cunstruction. Here’s a link. http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/2/9/200/13025/ITEM/Motorsport-Products-P-12-Lift-Stand.aspx
