You had the ugly SV650. I would have ditched it too lol. They are good bikes though, and not hard to get for cheap like you did. Probably one of the best affordable starter bikes out there.

Personally, I like having a powerful dedicated street bike. That is why I have my VFR1200. It gets to 130 about as fast as that SV650 gets to 80, and it's dead stable at that speed. It's a different kind of riding, but it is still very fun ( at least to me). I do understand the fun of a dual sport though, which is why I got my Hawk. It's less serious, more fun, and more versatile.

That KTM is nice though, and I would say you picked it up for a steal. Even the plastics don't look too bad from a distance, so I can only assume that they are broken in a few spots. You could try a little plastic welding on those to keep it affordable for now before springing for new ones.
