Luxottica owns or controls 80% of the sunglasses market. It’s a somewhat similar situation.

General Motors and the Chevrolet/GMC thing.

Dodge/Chrysler/(formerly)Plymouth is the same thing as well.
Lol good point. Pontiac, Buick & Oldsmobile had some identical cars with minor differences.

I think that's all of them...?

And how many Chrysler 3500 diesels are identical to the Ram’s minus some badging? Hmmmm

Husqvarna has some street models that have little in common with ktms. Not sure why everyone’s so against ktm.

Ktms elevated The sport in recent times and brought us a ton of options as consumers.

I havent read any posts which is anti-KTM, that is your own interpretation

I personally think they did the bikes as Gas Gas to take sales off Sherco, Beta, etc rather than the Japanese brands...but thats just my opinion

silver wheels are so god awful plain looking in my opinion, I prefer black, but I think it would look pretty good with yellow or gold ones, too.

I like bare aluminum rims best now, it looks clean. I used to like black and I'm probably the only one in the world that's always hated gold rims on any bike . Looks gaudy to me.

I’m anxious to hear the reviews on the new Gasgas. Everyone will say oh it’s just a KTM in red. But most those people don’t own both ktm and husky bikes At the same time that are supposedly identical. I on the other hand do. They have a different feel to each, they each have different parts on them.

Bring on the downvotes. I’m good with it since I have current first hand experience haha.

People just want something different, a red bike that is not a Honda perhaps. Gas Gas is supposed to be a lower priced KTM and some people will buy them because you get the supposed quality and technology of a KTM with lower level brakes and suspension, for less money. People who are fun riders or people with families might enjoy a brand new bike that isn't $10,000.0. I think there is a market for a lower priced quality bike. Besides that, 90% of riders cannot use these bikes to their potential anyway, so why pay for something that won't make you faster or let you have more fun?

KTM is doing things their way, if you don't like it don't buy one of their products.
Yeah, that makes sense. I haven’t seen the pricing of these yet so just assumed they would be similar in price to the KTM and Husky.

For those of you saying the GasGas is same as a KTM, does anyone know if the '19 GasGas plastics will fit my '19 KTM 150?

It would be imperative they come stock with a red frame instead of dreary ol’ black

No, because if you Do have a '19 Gas Gas, it's Spanish Gas Gas. Not an Austrian one, which is what they will be with the presumed 2021s.

If the gasgas is cheaper but the same otherwise, they will sell all of them.

My dad has a 2020 XC-W300 TPI and a 2021 Husky TE300i TPI, and they are very different bikes. The subtle differences add up.

KTM makes good bikes. But in my opinion the orange is butt ugly. So, I ride a Husqvarna. It was exactly $100 more than the KTM. I expect the GasGas to $100 less than the KTM.
