KTM 690 Clutch Recall

[Benj]

I received a letter from KTM yesterday on a recall regarding the clutch slave. I phoned Holeshot and talked to Jon. He knew all about it. He told me if I got there at 10 the next day they would take care of it. I rode up there today and Jon had it fixed in an hour. Great service. Clutch is even smother than before. I know there are a few issues on the 690 clutch . This is the letter

interesting, as KtM usually just denies there's a problem, like there is no problem with airbox's that leak the dirt to the inside, clutch's failing (950 690 701,,), nope doesn't happen.

There is also a recall on the Husqvarna models. Mine already failed and I replaced it with an Oberon option (there is a thread https://forum.dualsportbc.com/threads/husqvarna-701-clutch-slave-cylinder.354737/ ). About time they stepped up and made it right.
