It appeared as if the world would have to wait for the Tokyo Motorcycle Show and the official March 26th release date to get its eyes on fully exposed photos.<\/p>\n<p>If you were holding your breath for the unveiling, you can thank German mag <em>Motorrad<\/em> for breaking the photos early. As we can see now, the supermoto and enduro versions differ quite extensively, despite sharing a frame and power-train. The unique single crown fork protruding from a BMX-like handlebar and headtube combination holding a single headlight certainly set the slick-tired version apart from its knobby clad counterpart. We can&#8217;t help but notice the rather dainty tubular steel frame on each model, despite plastic covers that give the illusion of a much beefier unit.<\/p>\n<p>How much will it cost for your very own stick of 30-horsepower, 200-pound, orange-blooded electric dynamite? A proposed price of &euro;10,000, which at current exchange rates is just over $13,500, seems in no way competitive amongst stiff competition from <a href=\"http:\/\/green.autoblog.com\/2008\/09\/19\/video-jay-leno-gets-the-zero-x-in-his-garage\/\">Zero<\/a> and others already in the market. But it is still way too early to take much of an educated stand regarding KTM&#8217;s charge into the electric cycle niche. We won&#8217;t know anything concrete until we can put power to the ground aboard a Freeride ourselves.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"postgallery\">\n<p><strong>Gallery: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/ktm-freeride-electric-motorcycle-concepts\/low\/\">KTM Freeride electric motorcycle concepts<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/ktm-freeride-electric-motorcycle-concepts\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/03\/ktmfreeride1_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/ktm-freeride-electric-motorcycle-concepts\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/03\/ktm-electric-supermoto-2010_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/ktm-freeride-electric-motorcycle-concepts\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/03\/ktmfreeride3_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/ktm-freeride-electric-motorcycle-concepts\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/03\/ktmfreeride2_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/ktm-freeride-electric-motorcycle-concepts\/low\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2010\/03\/ktm-freeride-electric-motor_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>\n[Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.motorradonline.de\/\">Motorradonline.de<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.1000ps.at\/modellnews-2347899-KTM_ZEM_Freeride\">1000ps.at<\/a> via <a href=\"http:\/\/hellforleathermagazine.com\/2010\/03\/ktm-freeride-leaks-in-german-m.html#more\">Hell For Leather<\/a>]<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/03\/24\/first-look-at-the-ktm-freeride-electric-motorcycle-photos-leak\/\">First look at the KTM Freeride: Electric motorcycle photos leak from Germany<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\">Autoblog<\/a> on Wed, 24 Mar 2010 08:29:00 EST.
