I’m not sure if you need a carnet for South Africa but if you do the price of the carnet (4000 NOK, maybe more) and the freight of the bike one way will probably exceed the price of buying a cheap bike in South Africa which you can sell after the trip is over.
Both Namibia and South Africa has excellent dealership for newer bikes.
Namibia is, except for some Saharan countries, the best country I know for driving a bike in Africa.. I clocked over 6000 km there, and personally I would have chosen a bigger bike :-)
BTW: If you choose to take the KTM you should consider painting it..
