My July issue of MXA just arrived. It had another KTM on the cover. It seems that 5 of the 7 issue covers this year have had KTM's on them.

Good for them...

Just don't be struggling rider who's getting work from a different magazine doing tests and show up to REM and you'll be fine with them.

If u dig bikes and want good opinions, it doesn't get much better than MXA. I dig bikes, and I humble about my lack of knowledge, go figure what I read...

maybe mxa just likes the fact that KTM has the balls to go for it in these economic times... hard not to respect the effort ktm has given to try get on par with the other other teams in the US.

I agree.....geez the conspiracy theories that fly around here. Mxa is taking a liking to ktm BECAUSE of the mentioned above... Simple as that.

I used to be the typical American rider that thought any bike that wasn't from the big Japanese four was dung. For the most part that was true for many years but now that I've owned a new generation ktm I realize how pig headed I was being. Best bike I've owned. Period.

MXA have brought up this topic before. Their comment was basically that they put the best/newest/most innovative bike on the cover. if KTM are putting out those kind of bikes then that is why they get the covers

KTM is building quality bikes and deserve the attention..

on a side note I just had a tour of their factory in Austria last week, was pretty cool watching their assembly line for the bikes and the amount of parts they had..

The KTM is on the cover of MXA because Jodie's aunty twice remove is the next door neighbour to Ryan Dungey's school friends uncle;s sex slave's daughter.

I heard that directly from my auntie's uncle that delivers the mail to the guy that lives in the next street behind the baker of the guy that see's his mom.

Something like that!

They also told me that KTM's are actually made in Australia, not Austria as most people think.
