The parent company of KTM, Pierer Mobility, has acquired a 25.1% ownership stake in the Italian manufacturer MV Agusta.
In their announcement, Pierer Mobility will take over the supply chain and purchasing for MV Agusta, and KTM will take over distribution for MV Agusta motorcycles in the USA...
KTM officially announced that they are no longer going to be a chassis provider in Moto2 after the end of the season, become Husqvarna in Moto3 and have committed to MotoGP for the next 5 years.
Seems unfortunate timing given Brinders win in Austria, hopefully their new chassis will offer...
South African former Moto3 World Champion Brad Binder will make the step up to MotoGP in 2020 after signing to ride for the Red Bull KTM Tech3 team.
Binder replaces Hafizh Syahrin in the team alongside Miguel Oliveira and will be the first South African to take to the grid in the four-stroke...
I bought this bike from Fahed on this forum a couple years ago. Here she is again at an even deeper discount.
Tis the season for downsizing! I'm basically giving this bike away compared to the ~15k dumped into it. You won't find a more race/track day ready little bike to fly around on...
Its the end of the line for the Tech 3 / Yamaha partnership, presumably as they don't think the M1 is going in the right direction (2017 race results, off season testing results, Zarco sticking with the 2016 chassis etc) and paddock gossip has them moving to KTM for 2019. Personally I'd be...
I think having another manufacturer in MotoGP next year is a great thing and hope KTM have a great race tomorrow.
They know they have a long road ahead of them, but good on them spending the money for us to enjoy them race at the top level...
Just picked up my new 1299s a few days ago! Came from a KTM RC8R, which I loved, but it just wasn't keeping pace with technology and is no longer going to be offered from KTM. :(
Haven't even had it on the street yet and it is already in track trim w/slicks for COTA this coming weekend! :eek...
Just sharing an experience I've recently had. Very rarely does my bike go to any dealers- and the Ducati dealer is an hour from me. I needed a simple clutch plate installed and had never done one and knew from talking to others that it was easy for people that knew what they were doing- main...
Anyone in the Kansas area interested? I am in the process of buying a house so I'm looking to unload the super D even though its probably the best overall bike I've ever ridden. Open to reasonable offers
KTM Super Duke 1290 | eBay
Had a chance to play on the track with a racer dude on his KTM 1290 Super Duke in the weekend.
He is curious on how the two bikes pull against each other.
Much fun were had!
My conclusion is that Panigale matches the Duke's low-mid pull, but it keeps pulling past 160-180 kph where the...
KTM RC390 Coming to America ? $5,499
I think it looks pretty cool. It's probably a sweet track day toy. Although, the tank looks like that giant monstrosity from the RC 1190/R and no bolt-on rear subframe.
So Im tire of swaping faring on my mv or my panigale to take to the track and to be honest too much power and their are not cheap to fix. so im looking at the 2015 KTM RC 390. I was also looking at the cbr 500. what you guy think?
I have a dilemma, would love to hear your opinions. I was set on the KTM 1290 SDR....I've gave myself the rest of the weekend to decide...
Test rode the KTM 1290SDR - loved it but not really had the chance to full open them up with both stealerships in the city?
