Default Re: KTM announce 81.4 million euro loss

I'm wondering if, or to what degree this might impact Husaberg. Seems KTM has been slowly burying them anyhow. A shame - loved my KTM sm, but my FS650 was the most fun bike I've owned...

someone i know raced a nutter on one of them once, it was quick, and he was popping the front up at about 70 if not more.

Hey welcome back to the thread!


Just to join the "I love KTM" band, Ive owned a few over the years now and do have a soft spot for them.
Some of their marketing ideas are a bit odd but I put that down to them being Austrian

They made a few bad decisions but they have made a load of great bikes
