heard about the recall?

Just saw on the local news that KTM is recalling all its atv's because of a rear brake caliper failure.

This is true. I'm not quite sure of the actual details of this, but most of the 08's are recalled, and I'm not sure on the 09's. I just got a notice from KTM in the mail but havn't opened the envelope yet.

Yes 09s if you got a letter its RECALLED New front return spring in the rear new caliper parts and brake stay

They don't replace the calipers in the recall.
