KTM
Adventure Motorcycles
KTM began
life as a metalworking company in 1934. It was not until
1953 that KTM began producing motorcyles. Most of the
components of their motorcycles were built in house until 1992
when the company was forced to split into 3 separate parts due
to insolvency.
Since the
motorcycle division became independent, they have formed
outside partnerships and grown dramatically. By 2005,
they were delivering 80,000 units per year.
KTM has
been known mostly as an off road motorcycle producer. The
past few years have seen them evolve into the dual sport and
adventure category. They are now offering several street
only motorcycles. In partnership with Polaris, they are
also producing a line of ATV's.
