Has KTM bought Gas Gas?

I heard they were buying Chevrolet. Orange frames and orange bodies with flat black wheels. Of course you have to trade out the front suspension with your older suspension before you drive it.
 
Do people believe every rumour they hear?

I heard that anyone that rides a yamaha has the left ball bigger than the right one... It's definitely true as I read it on the Internet!:rolleyes::p

Get a grip peeps who cares if gasgas gets bought by someone else? They will still make bikes, and if you don't like the bike they build, then buy something else, bigger things to worry about, like I've got a leaky tap..:D

It's true! Mine grew the minute I pulled my YZ into the paddock. It's worse now...I aquired a Zuma scooter to boot.
 
Rumors

I believe that if you don't hear a good rumor by 10 o'clock, START ONE. I didn't read that on the internet, cause i doan red reel wel. Did anyone bother to check it out on Snopes? It's not in their data base. The internet strikes again.

Your right on the worrying part , but KTM will scrap the enduroe bikes ,or do worse and throw WP on them, and just keep the trials division ,ready made just put WPs and KTM sticker on it !

Personally I would like to see one of the Japenese companies by it ,leave the basic bike structure alone so they would have a true endure bike, green ,red blue or yellow who cares !

Just think throw nothing but a KTM sticker on it and it would instantly be the best bike made and the posers would argue 'till the end of time that the sticker made all the difference in performance !
 
It's got to be 10 o'clock somewhere. A mate emailed part of this article he cut but couldn't remember who wrote it. He said it definitely wasn’t Bill Gates though.


Gas Gas EnduroX-box Race Team rumour or reality?
So would providing funds to help floundering Spanish Motorcycle company Gas Gas recover and establish a EnduroX-box sponsored race team be viable?
Gas Gas are leaders in the world trials market and are strong contenders in the enduro sector. The brand is known for a very high quality product and the continuous research and technical development they put into their product. A majority of the Gas Gas models are still handbuilt at the Gas Gas factory Spain.
Gas Gas has won multiple world trials championships with three successive championships in 1993, 1994 and 1995. More recently they won the Trial Outdoor World Championship 2005 and 2006 and Indoor World Championship 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006.
Gas Gas have also achieved success at the highest level in the World Enduro Championship. 1994 1996, 1999, 2003. In 2006, British Enduro Champion Wayne Braybrook, riding a Gas Gas, was one of only two riders to finish all 80 miles of the Red Bull Last Man Standing event. 126 other riders did not finish.
Impressed? we are!!
With indoor Trials, FIM World Enduro Championships receiving ever growing global exposure and the explosion of the indoor/oudoor sport of EnduroX, would a sponsorship provide the exposure and sales to justify a solid investment?
As millions of viewers worldwide are beginning to focus attention to the world class Enduro and indoor EnduroX events in addition to the traditional Super Cross and MX events, there is great potential for a company to gain exposure to a global audience in spades.
What would be the public reaction if you had a small manufacturer that provides a time proven high quality competitive product thats earned them tremendous loyalty from their customers, offer them assistance thus possibly saving them from extinction, and then have them endorse your brand, your product and your support, on the podium in front of a global audience.
 
Someone posted a press release from KTM stating they were not pursuing gasgas. So this is definitely false.

Owners of websites will post controversial topics to draw traffic to their websites. They make their money off of advertising - every time an ad is viewed they make money, every time someone clicks on one of those ads, they make more money.
