Whilst not directly MotoGP, it does involve KTM/ Peirer Group....
They were the main stakeholders in WESS, which ran the Hard Enduro Championship.......which has gone into liquidation. A slight conflict of interest there..... In my mind, KTM should have left MotoGP alone, and concentrated on the off-road side. |

They for sure should, why in hecks name did they build loads of cars, that were only sold in small numbers, some truly woeful management and decisions made.
They will it seems leave in 2026, which leaves certainly Moto3 in a very difficult spot. This also ties in with why Dorna are fine with Suzuki talking about coming back they will no doubt get huge financial and R&D benefuits to do so. |

Sad. But… Who would buy one of those Bikes? Over the years they never fixed the reliability issues like crankshaft bearings, either on 2-Stroke or 4-Stroke engines. Last summer I went to a main Katoche dealer in Paris to get rid of my Honda. But between the price tags and orange color of the frame I gave up…
