KTM four-year warranty

Austrian bike maker KTM is trying to recover confidence in its motorcycles, after being hit by the financial woes of its owner, the Pierer Group. To reassure customers it has announced a new four-year warranty covering its twin-cylinder models – that means the parallel twin 790, 890 and 990 models, as well as the 1290 and 1390 V-twin range. Spela Kovacic, VP of global customer service, said: “Every KTM motorcycle that leaves our factory comes with the promise of quality and excitement for both new and regular customers. To offer extra protection against any and all eventualities, we’ve added a premium manufacturer’s warranty, ramping up the value for our customers.”
