Seeing my KTM bottle openers in the drawer always brings a smile. The bikes are long gone but the bottle openers bring back all of the great memories. It was a small thing for KTM to do but it made a lasting impression. I still have a Suzuki luggage bag from back when they also gave a Makita drill.

And you couldn't even post a pic of the bottle opener?

Don’t piss off the old people - the older they get the less “life in prison” is a deterrent for them!

Guys, just a heads up. Please check your KTM bottle openers! Mine cracked right next to the handle and broke in half just as I was going for a critcal open. I was very, very lucky and only spilled 1/2 my beer. I will be using only Japanese bottle openers from now on. These KTM things are way too thin and just are not up to par. Definately not the premium product that KTM claims.

The KTM kids Silencer System. Perfect product to maintain piece and quiet on a long road trip when your little one is still wearing Huggies. Many a peaceful mile......
Damn I feel old now. He’s 19.....

Jap bottle openers are aluminum....far superior to those junker KTM openers which are made of inferior steel.

Well.....like the OP , I still dig my $7000.00 Husqvarna ball point pen they gave me with my manual. It's a badass pen!
And there goes Jeffro. One of God's own prototypes. A super high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.

Dang...all I got was a KTM tool bag...never use it, because its a KTM and I can afford a mechanic.
I would have gotten much more usage out of a bottle opener.

Hope your hand was not injured. Don't worry, they'll warranty the bottle opener when they come off backorder.

Silly. The mechanic should be on call 24/7. That way you won't need to open the bottle yourself.

I might be able to do it.....but the specific upside down writing pen was like 4K more. All I could afford was this cheapo 7K pen......but maybe the 11K pen is in my future?

Dude, they're on the limit of weight vs structural integrity. It's like 4 ounces less than the Suzuki opener... these things happen , they have a factor of safety of like 0.9 bro.

I have a crooked collar bone from my 2005 KTM 450SX but my riding buddies were surprised that I survived two years without injury on my 98 KTM 380sx.
