An unnamed person we know of up here bought a brand new KTM, took it home and before the rubber nipples on the tyres could even get polished the bike is back in the shop for between 2 and 3 thousand dollars worth of repairs. Yes not a single km of speedo wear has occurred- some of the repairs underway
all the plastics and I mean
all of the plastics
majority of electrical harnesses and switches
speedo cable/ speedo
hand grips
new seat
header pipe
rego label holder and label
side stand
and no doubt there is more
It wasn’t dropped, nor run over nor hit by lightning.
It was eaten by a bloody great dog that dragged it around the yard eating various bits and bending the rest! And the dog is still alive!
