It's 2023 and the footage is barely a step above UFO footage. Laughing

Alloy frame??

Normal engine tilt.

Ktm shaped front and rear plastics.

It would be interesting to see what suspension they go with.

Single beam aluminum frame.

More than one person has said KYB suspension.

Could developing the engine be as simple as copying a cylinder of one of their triples and  modifying it appropriately?

My thought as well.

The 760cc or so Moto2 spec triple would be a start. Pretty sure the bore diameter is within the MX2 limit.

Well, if this is the real thing, it's very far from the "bike with its own personality" that RC described.

Styling, tech, from the very little we see, it's totally standard and disappointing.

How can you tell from one shitty video? We don’t know anything and we didn’t see really anything.

It was said elsewhere recently IT was on a black Kawasaki just getting prepped back into  riding shape so he can start testing but who knows.

What did you expect?  Triangle shaped wheels?  Back tire up from? Steering done with the rear wheel?  
 

looks like a fairly unique frame compared to most that are out there.

That definitely not a KX

Motor sounds like a 250.

I can’t wait to see the 450 when it comes out and I really hope the bike is good. My grandpa raced Triumphs in his early years of racing desert and I think it would be awesome to have one of their MX bikes.

Almost looks like an 04 Kawazuki frame...

I have seen Tedesco on an all black bike atleast 3 times and just assumed it was a 24 Kawi and didn’t look for details. Looking back, I could have easily snapped pictures better than the ones shown. 
 

It did also have a different exhaust tone but just figured that was sound restriction or something.

Interestingly, word on Facebook suggests the engine has been developed by a company very local to me! Interesting if true.
