The KTM Venom production seems to have stalled, as the prototype enters an advanced stage of development.

Leaving some light at the end of the tunnel for Venom hopefuls, it is expected that the project will experience a slow-down, rather than be completely abandoned.
Currently, the Venom is in the offices of designer Kiska, the style workshop responsible for recent KTM creations.
