These guys (and gals) are the largest and main KTM dealership/workshop in Sydney. totally KTM, loads of mainly off-road bikes. Friendly and informative. No costs as such but probably cheaper than europe & us. In general bikes seem to cost about 20% less than UK.

Located in Rockdale/Banksia suburb on Princes Highway - about 10km/6m south of the city on 'Route 66!!', located on the right hand side of the road. They also have a sister-breakers who may be able to source cheap parts.

Regards
James

they have NO email address !

GPS way point: N 52 01.946 / W 002 26.038

ask for Jane, she knows a lot especial the old KTM bikes.

it's a small shop/workshop 3-4 people
used to be one of the 1st KTM dealer in the UK back in 1985 they use to import KTM bikes right from the Factory and still do, even before KTM officially swamped to the UK market in orange, they are not tight up with the official KTM dealership chain.... delivered 25 KTM 350 EXG 2-strokes to the MOD/SAS in 1990....
fast mail order even internationally, but you should know the exact part-no you need if you order by phone to avoid may getting a wrong item if they have to find it in the catalog's.
Otherwise Jane is very handy to supply "nice looking paperwork" for stolidity officials.....

great shop

I live in a very lucky area of the states. I am literaly down the road from KTM USA and am lucky enough to have known the Penton Brothers that first brought the bikes to the US. So I have many benifits in respect to riding KTMs
The shop that I have found to be the best is RT 20 motorsports. These guys rock!!
They are in Oberlin OHIO, on rt 20 south east of town. They can be reached at 1-440 -774-1101 AFTER 11:OO AM EASTER STANDARD TIME. They are also on the web. Ask for Jason. He can and will fix most anything on 2 wheels.

KTM Dealer in Togo. They are located about 3 to 4 kilometers east of the Ghana border on the coastal road. They carry a good range of spares and accessories and some tires. I dealt with Michelle - a 3 time Dakar competitor.

Braam,

Give Demaks a call - number above - they will sort you out. About 15 mins ride into Turkish side - worth the visit - take the ferry (not the bridge) from near Sultanamet (where car ferries leave).

Turns out there's a KTM dealer in Lusaka Zambia as well! At the moment, they cater mostly to the scrambler/enduro crowd and the rapidly growing MX bunch, but maybe if more RTW or trans-Africa bikes were seen in Lusaka they'd start stocking LC4 and Adventure bits as well.

As it is, they have on hand some useful basics that might work out(air filters, brake pads, cables, some apparel, levers, twist grips, tyres, spokes etc) but again the parts might not fit the larger bikes. If you're really in a fix, though, hey can order what you need from South Africa.

The owners (Julie and Ray) have been riding KTMs for over 20 years, and have trained a local mechanic to fix them. I think they're moving out of their garage soon to the MX track South of Lusaka on the road to Livingstone.

Contact them at (260)-96-757-757. Give them a ring and maybe you'll decide to explore the waterfalls and wilderness of Zambia rather than just flying through it like most riders do on their way to somewhere else. There are miles of underexplored areas of this country...come have a look.

Hi Hunter,

we intend to travel through Sambia next summer (2015) with 3 KTM 690. Is there still the KTM-Tech in Lusaka ? Think we need new tires after 3000 km´s and some services.

Thanks for your answer in advance.
Hannes
