Whoever in KTM said no, would have kicked themselves for years.

Although, to be fair, AFAIK KTM sell more bikes around the world than WMB so haven't suffered toooooo badly from that decision

Yeah but little unfair comparison, most of their sales are scooters, and Off Roaders

I bet ANY MANUFACTURER would have paid more than BMW if they knew what the end result was on sales after their trips.

Fixed.

….I do like the KTM's though.



….saying that though, would RTW have been achieved.

I ride a bike for the handling, the engine, the sheer buzz it gives me every time I ride it and that indefinable thing called character ~ the GS doesn't even get a look in when it comes to that.

Until I bought my KTM, I thought that was a load of old bollocks, but (and I hate myself for this ), I agree!

Now I need a lie down.

Yep, perhaps the only people here, who say the BM is "as exciting" or has the "character " of a KTM are those that haven't ridden one !

How they can ignore Nutty who has both .... (or guys who have ridden both with extended rides) ...baffles me

KTM for ugly feckers and the GS for us pretty boys

Oh, and the build quality of the BMW is better which will feck a few off on here like Arsey

Would that be why many BMW owners need engines replacing within months due corrosion ? Muppet.
