KTM Dakar 450

I find it interesting they use the 690 / 1290  style trellis frame.  No double loop under the motor. Stronger structure to carry all that weight.

Now that I think of it, much easier to drop the motor for overnight repair.

Any idea on the difference in weight? Sure looks stronger than the double loop version.
