News just in from CFmoto is the new KTM 790 range of bikes
1. 790 DUKE
2. 790 ADV
3. 790 ADV / R

Will be made in China under the joint venture company called
KTMR2R to which CFmoto has a 51% stake.

Great news not only for me in China but for you guys in Thailand.
Import tax is Alot less between China and Thailand then what it is now between Thailand and the EU.

KTM is using the CFmoto dealers network so there is 10000s of CFmoto / KTM dealers all over China .
But the workmen has only 1 hammer and a screwdriver between them.
Lol
To be fair to CFmoto over the last 2 years there dealers are getting very well set up.
