CLAIM NUMBER: 3WR00323

(PLEASE STATE FULL NAME & ADDRESS OF WITNESS)

1. Do you feel that it is common for 990 Superduke fuel tanks to pose resistance to installation when at cold/ambient temperature?


2. When installed, do you feel the integrity of the fuel tank is compromised – especially when ambient/engine temperature is high?


3. Historically, do you feel that KTM Sportmotorcycle UK/KTM Sportmotorcycle AG willingly replace fuel tanks for expansion (or other reasons for failure) with considerable ease or minimal encouragement?


4. Do you feel that the material employed for the construction of 990 Superduke fuel tanks is considered to be partially/wholely inadequate for the role it's intended to serve?


5. Do you feel that a fuel tank of metallic construction would eliminate all known documented issues/problems/defects with 990 Superduke fuel tanks?


I BELIEVE THAT THE FACTS STATED IN THIS WITNESS STATEMENT ARE TRUE.

Thanks very much for the responses guys. Will be getting my defence sent off Thursday.

The "expert's" report was a fooking joke but that's another story. Still got the feeling this will blow up in my face. Ever had that feeling when you feel like you just can't win, no matter how hard you try?
