Hear Me Out, KTM Shouldn't Be Testing Any Prototype Models Right Now

I don't know if you've heard, but KTM ain't doing all that great.

Now, maybe you've been living under a rock? Maybe you were one of those two astronauts stuck on the International Space Station for the last 9 months.

Whatever the case may be, KTM basically went bust a few months back and has been doing its level best to pick up the pieces of its crumbling empire. 

The company is hurting. Its dealers are hurting. Its customers are still reeling from its camshaft debacle. And the deck is seemingly stacked against the company's future as of this writing. I mean, it supposedly just restarted production of the new 2025 motorcycles in late March. KTM won't tell us which bikes that is, and it's postponed others, but at least there's that.
