In reply to Fred Flann. I think Pierer planned it all along. Why doesn't he invest his $$ into KTM to save it....he took and ran away.

I’ve seen other large companies in the past go through this….I hate to say it but,chance they’ll not be a KTM branded motorcycle soon.
Previous President raped the company…how else would he walk away with a personal wealth of over 1 BILLION dollars !!!!!
Leaving the company bankrupt….what idiot approved the purchase of MV Agusto…surely the accountants knew it wouldn’t work…twisted scam.
I feel sorry for senior employees.

I disagree on Gas Gas/Husqvarna.

If they were actually differentiated in market/products it would be one thing, but they’re basically the same as Buick/Chevy/Olds. Streamline to one brand.

Also, I have bought 4 new KTMs over the past several years, plus one Huqvarna e-MTB (which is awesome). Beef up the warranty (790 cams anyone?) and stop with the silly $$$ Tech Pack b.s. Make a high-quality/ hipgh performance product that is slimmed down.

PS, I am hoping to add a 390 Adv-R as soon as they are available. It will go in my toy hauler alongside my Husq e-mtb. Hoping that KTM has learned a lesson and can be brought back to solvency.

For once I tend to agree with the hedge fund. Give the owners a cold shower and pay back creditors first before letting Pierer keep all of his billions. That’s the consequence of incompetence.
