Owners comments: I’m out in Northern Arizona. I’m a3 owner of a KTM 790 adventure are I took it in for my 18,000 mile valve adjustment and service and to install a Rottweiler power commander and dual band or Joel White band auto tuner and Rottweiler pro antique and I had them call me and say my camp‘s bad my fingers are bad. The journal is bad Sent me pictures and said that somebody was inside the motor messing with it and that it had jumped a tooth on the timing chain. I investigated it and found out that apparently that all jumping the two thing is a little on the common side with the dirt tricks adjuster and also that you know the follower issues what it is I am not the one to diagnose it, but I know my bill went from like 1600 to 5000 they weren’t talking anything about Goodwill and I emailed them and you don’t let them know that and send them additional information where it had happened to people and apparently the guy is submitted it now and I’m on my way. You know waiting on that decision. I don’t know, but I’m you know regardless of what they tell him. I’m certainly not taking it. You know it’s every part I have that failed is Textbook on one. What the failures are you know I mean it’s like the parts list could be the same I guess I’m almost every bike and it definitely was not anything automatic that the shop told me or anything like that I had to go through that anyways I appreciate you guys and you know I’m a very loyal KTM guy and you know I love the brand but that you know I wish this wasn’t he had happened to cause I adore him, but you know I’m gonna believe that right they’re gonna do the right thing I do I do believe they’re gonna do the right thing but yet to see that so we shall see my bikes ready together and parts or you know it’s already put together and waiting, so we’ll see
