Wow...
Not quite sure what is going on with that either a look alike (someones Gunna get sued) or a scam I figure. Or ktm sent production to china and they are selling off excess... Lol

The bike picture is probably a real KTM and the one they are making copies from. Those crazy Chinese they can copy anything, except quality control.
If you did buy a new bike from them, treat it as used; Take it down to the frame and rebuild it using proper torque values and grease instead of fish oil.
Another website is alibaba.com You can get anything there.

This motorcycle is Original Genuine KTM Motorcycle made in Austria KTM-Sportmotorcycle AG.
if they really are genuine oem and not copies then thats a gold mine, im gonna buy one with paypal over the winter, if its chinese ill send it back, if its real ill buy as many as i can

I got $100 that says the picture is the genuine thing, but what you receive will not be. We came out with an LED illuminator at my company last year and one of the sales guys recently got an email from a Chinese company offering to sell us OUR LED illuminator.
If you look at the chainsaws, they sell what looks like genuine Stihl and Husqvarna. Here's a thread from Arboristsite
