KTM

KTM will be the first new product presenter, at its own booths, right when the show opens on Wednesday. Every single KTM showcases the purity of the design and uncompromising function that defines the READY TO RACE mentality. Central to motorcycling is performance. With pupils dilated, pulse elevated, and mind at its most alert, performance induces an intense hyper-reality. This is why performance is the very foundation of KTM’s philosophy. Adventure is a hunger to explore and for KTM, adventure represents a true test of skill, character, resourcefulness, and survival. Extreme circumstances expose weakness, highlight strength, and reveal the extraordinary. Building extreme motorcycles guarantees that every KTM ignites intense emotions and delivers pure thrills. KTM will be exhibiting at AIMExpo along with the HusqvarnaGASGAS, and MV Agusta brands.

When the show opens, visit KTM, GASGAS, Husqvarna, and MV Agusta at booths 5110, 5104, and 3111.
