Now It All Makes Sense | KTM Hyperbike Project

Why do two aluminum side panels completely change the look of a motorcycle? Because this is the moment where DA#22 finally starts to make sense. Together with ‪@diamondatelier‬, we're developing DA#22 — the world's first Hyperbike. Until now, every handcrafted aluminum panel has been created as an individual component. In this episode, the missing link is finally added. The new side panels connect the tank cover with the belly pan, transforming separate body panels into one continuous design. For the first time, the proportions, flowing lines and overall vision of the Hyperbike become visible. Every panel is handcrafted from flat sheet aluminum using traditional metal shaping techniques, with every curve formed by hand to create a unique one-off body. The base platform is a KTM 1290 Super Duke, but almost every part of the motorcycle will be redesigned and handcrafted throughout the build process. DA#22
