Every now and then we come across something really special. Custom Harley’s are all around us, so are the Japanese custom bikes, but KTM’s (Austrian brand) are almost no where to be seen. Even more so is the choice of KTM 950SM model from 2006. Yes, the carbureted one. The fuel tank has been borrowed from CB Honda and chopped to fit SM’s trellis frame. Seat unit is from Vespa unit while the steering has been modified with the usage of racing tripple trees and Neken handlebars.
The whole bike has almost menacing looks so the name Miss Hyde is more than appropriate. The small picture on the tank goes perfectly with the whole theme. Check out the specs of this unusual machine and think about future projets of custom bikes….this time include KTM’s as well.
