Maybe he was, but the decision came all the way from the top.


KTM made a pretty sensible decision on the day. The risks were too great for them and chances are they wouldn't have made as good a job in promoting a successful trip anyway.

At the time the KTM man came to see them, they were hardly impressive with their planning and organisation etc.

The decision at the top was based on what they were told by the KTM man on the ground.

A good decision !! from a company that would like to see it's self as forward thinking and on the cutting edge.

The KTM people looked just as organised.

They fecked up. And left it to "boring" BMW to pick up the baton .

Look at BMW's lack of success in last years dakar - but did it hurt their sales or reputation ?

Perhaps where you are in Europe, Harley Davidons hold their value a bit more.
Here in Canada and North America there are a LOT of them for sale used for pretty cheap. THere are a lot of those who bought them, rode them to Starbucks a few times... and now they don't use it.

I wonder how imports into Europe work?

No, you keep them over there
