4 Weeks ago, on a Sunday ride my 990 blew an oil return pipe which left me stranded in a pool of oil :mad:
According to the dealership, certain 990's have a problem with this return pipe and it needs to be replaced. Only one small problem with this whole f**###g fiasco is they don't have stock of the pipe. Monday will be 4 weeks that i've been waiting for a part which the factory apparently know is faulty.
To add to my frustration, in the last 4 weeks i've had 1 phone call from the dealer and only after i posted something on the forum. Every other time i've phoned them, only to be told that the pipe should be here on Thursday.
I suggest that other 990 owners check that their bike does'nt have the same dodgy pipe as me.

In the meantime, 4 weeks and counting while waiting for the pipe. Well done on this one KTM. Keep up the good work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :pot:
