Italy ....
Are you sure.................or just assembled there
See no different to a Yamaha, built in France

How many of the parts are made in Italy i have no idea and obviously some of the stuff is made outside Italy but i reckon there is less made in China on a Ducati than a BMW
An Italian bike built in Italy or a Japanese bike built in France . Yup….identical

KTM are using Chinese factories to build their sub 1000 cc bikes and Indian ones to build their sub 500 cc bikes

I was talking to Rick, not you...............so you have no need to pipe up
So are the 690's made in China and where are the 701's made?

Dirtbikes are made in Austria, I do believe

You wouldn’t think a modern bike would need setting up and have slack taken out the throttle etc,with zero miles on the bike !
What do you reckon on the T7 now you've had it awhile, is it a keeper?

I thought the Husky was Sweden
Yeh it suits me, most of our trails have been regraded in the Dales (and Moors) now, so it copes with most of them fine and can do some backroad stuff.
Really want to to try it out in Spain and/or Pyrenees - got some good routes, which would be ideal for a bike like that and an on/offroad tour
Maybe should have bought a 690e (I have 2 KTM dealers 4 miles away, in both local towns nearest to me)
Quite fancy a smaller enduro too, especially after yesterday's wet day in the Dales, maybe should get a tuning fork full house
You sound confused
Glad you're pleased with it and yeah, some of the Picos trails would be great on a bike like that

I’ve never understood this snatchy throttle complaining... yes some bikes (Yamaha Ducati and Triumph to name the obvious) have a little bit of play off the stop but unless you’re hitting the throttle like an over enthusiastic butcher pounding a rump of meat then it really isn’t a problem.
Or buy a throttle spacer if it upsets your sensitive girly strength grip too much.
