KTM are now in self administration in Europe, they hope to get new funding and the news suggests all will be revealed by end Feb.

I wonder if the other brands are in bother?  They have a joint venture with CF Moto as well.  My local Triumph dealers have just taken over the next door unit and are selling Pierer from these premises.  (https://www.destinationmotorcycles.co.uk/)

I have been drooling over the Augusta for some time and bought some Gasgas merchandise - its a nice outlet and the new bikes look really nice as well.  Shame to see it all go bang.

Yes, my bad spelling.  I had the F4 back in the day and it was too fast - had to sell it before I lost my licence.  Missus still hasn't forgiven me.  I seem to be buying slower and slower bikes as I get older...  (or is that wiser?)

It seems they won't be having a team next year in trials or anything else. Vertigo is restructuring also. With less than 7000 bikes sold per year worldwide some brands will go away. Pre KTM Gas Gas sold more than twice as many enduro bikes as trials but KTM sold off the enduro tech to Rieju. Beta and Sherco are doing well in enduro.
