Just speculation,but they already have all the bikes that gasgas competes against, so maybe they are looking to capture some segments of the market that would not normally buy a ktm?
I've ridden gasgas and ktm's for years, they are both great bikes, just different, but still miles ahead of the jap stuff.
i do hope that this rumour does come to be!
I too would like this. It would make getting parts much easier for me. Getting gasser parts in Canada isn't all that easy.

If I was to guess, I think KTM wouldn't focus on the enduro model gassers as KTM already has the enduro market sales. I think they would be more interested in the trials models imo.
