Writing on the wall?

i was waiting for the low displacement 4 cylinders (i have always loved the zxr400, i had one, bandit 400...etc). Now, in Spain, we have the kove 450r and the zxmoto 450 rr (amazing bikes and amazing prices 7000 eu on the road...to put that in context the kawasaki zx4rr is 10500 euros..)
To be honest i bougth the Svatpilen for the design and promotion price...but every day i ride it wins my heart a bit more than expected...
i will keep it and probably the zxmoto or the kove will be my second bike....or a second hand zx4r
 
Has anyone ever seen heel guards made from plastic (apart perhaps from children's push bikes)?
Here's an online find of some (already broken) heel guards from the brand-new 2027 generation KTM Duke 790 (no joke).
Cost-cutting at any cost?

This is their Eicma statement, being part of the KTM stand

‘Husqvarna Mobility continues its commitment to innovation, design and technology and will also use EICMA26 to present a selection of its latest models. With this, the company wants to illustrate its wide range and its progressive approach to motorcycle development.’

It’s quite interesting to read in combination with the image, since I heard that they were going to focus on dirt/offroad in the future.
