The blokes on the counter speak next to no english but are friendly and willing, also a very good english speaking mechanic in their workshop.
The shop is hard to miss with a big orange KTM sign on the highway (Barcelona road) about 1.5 KM from the centre heading south on the left.

Its on route 43 next to the intersection with 13 under the bridges.

The owner, mechanic, salesman, all around good guy is Nobuya Yamashika. He really knows LC4 and LC8 engines, WP suspension, and electrics. His little shop is immaculate, his prices more than fair, and is one of the few KTM dealers in all of Japan who has any sort of stock on hand. He speaks no english, but no worries. Highly recommended.

More friendly than Bracken, but not so good.

I have a brief update on the KTM Lusaka dealership posted by Hunter Nielson some 18 months ago, run by Julie and Ray Wilson.

They still cater mainly for the MX crowd, but the mechanic, Charles, performed a very thorough service on my 640 Adventure. Julie threw in lots of sandwiches & drinks while we worked on the bike, and when I accidentally snapped a crucial banjo bolt for my oil filter, they were kind enough to send their daughter Abi to chauffeur me around the various auto spares stores in Lusaka for several hours trying to find a replacement.

They are moving to new premises in the next two weeks, for which the contact details are as follows:

Julie and Ray Wilson
Ph: +260 96 757 757
Mukwa Drive
Eureka, Lilayi
Lusaka, Zambia

The new address is about 10kms before you reach the city on the road from Livingstone.

cheers
Matt Roach

SM Motos
Rio Gallegos
Patagonia, Argentina.

Easy to find: stay on Ruta 3 through town. New shop is on the left 'Honda' and 'yamaha' are clues when heading south to Ushuaia.

Not a dealer but very good mechanics and very trustworthy in a place not exactly swimming in bike shops.

Changed my clutch plates (twice), repacked the exhaust, changed rear spring.

Highly recommnded.

Great mehanic in Pato and english speaking apprentice, Hans, know his stuff too.
They're on Bernard O'Higgins which is the main road into town, can't miss it on the right hand side 6 or so blocks into town.

These guys specialise in dirt bikes and support the regions number one rider so know they're stuff. I had my bike in there 4 days, worked on it myself plus had help from the boys (water pump seal, fork seal plus loads of other stuff) and they only charged me $100US which I thought was top notch. These guys can actually fix things and find solutions to problems rather than just replacing parts

Cheers guys,

Hiya

We came across these guys in Hungary:

Auto-Welt Dunafoldvar KFT
Eloszallasi u. 50/A
H-7020 Dunafoldvar
Hungary

I only needed a new radiator cap but they were very helpful. Think they might be quite a new KTM dealer, didn't have card facilities (we bought a few other goodies as well) but one of the girls gave us a lift into town to a cash machine (it was probably a lot easier than trying to give us directions!).

Hi,

I've just had my cam replaced on my 2006 KTM 640 Adventure after a catastrophic failure by a very competent mechanic. He mainly works on Jap bikes and BMW's and had never worked on a KTM before but took his time, understood how everything worked and used his seemingly infinite supply of contacts including KTM dealers, friends with KTM bikes and university lectureres to repair my bike before I head further East. It is now in better condition than when I left the UK. He now likes KTM bikes because of their ingenius simplicity.

He is located in a huge industrial estate where there is nothing but garages, bodywork shops and tool and parts shops. Whatever you need doing, can be welded, pressed, drilled or ground there!

All the people who work in the area are ridiculously friendly and the food from the small shops is cheap. Its much better than the touristy area of Istanbul, so much more genuine.

His address is Ataturk Oto Sanayi Sitesi 2. Kisim 9 Sk. No 294 Maslak, Istanbul.

I can report on a good workshop in Bulgaria. I needed to have the 10k service done for my 690 Enduro and they fitted me in on short notice, very friendly, nice and the service was officially registered with the KTM dealer.net (might be important for keeping your guarantee). They do speak German and English as well.

They are located right next to the highway (A1) in the near vicinity of Plovidv, Bulgaria.

GPS-Coordinates: N42 11.584 E24 39.519

(I don't have the exact address but you can find them online under KTM Bulgaria | Ready To Race) or just call Valentin 0899 11 69 89.)

They are also the official importer of KTM for Bulgaria and will probably be your best bet for locating any KTM specific parts as well as general motorbike stuff (clothing, tires, chains, ...).

P.S.: Just noticed that the place has already been reported here. I just leave the post anyway since by now I fixed most of the typos and one more positive report probably won't do any harm
