Does anyone know if KTM are going to release a road legal version of their 125 GP bike.

No.

You could buy one and make it road legal. But expect a rebuild or two every ride.

It's like asking if they are making a road version of a f1 car (Ok, I know they did, but it was still no where near a real f1 car and was bloody expensive).

If 125cc rules are like moto-gp, it would no longer be allowed to be raced if it was sold as a road bike, I believe.

https://www.off-road.com/dirtbike/machines/2005/ktm/125sx.html That's a bike you can buy but it isnt road legal.

https://www.huskysport.co.uk/ENDURO.HTM You would be better off with this for green laning purposes or if it's for road use get an SM version.

4-stroke or 2-stroke https://www.huskysport.co.uk/supermotard.htm

Probably cheaper and just as good getting a DT125 and fitting buying some seperate Supermoto wheels though. Thumbs Up

But buy the SM125S as it's gonna be the best by far, or check out Aprilia's 125 supermoto (an RS125 engine).

At a guess he was talking about something like this:

Woops! Embarassed

I still associate KTM with Paris-Dakar and Supermoto etc...
Forgot they had MotoGP bikes in the smaller classes. Wouldnt hold your breath for those road bikes either, not likely to ever be made in any sort of road trim.
