WINGS FOR LIFE
Wings for Life was founded in spring
2004 by motor sport legend Heinz
Kinigadner and Dietrich Mateschitz,
founder of Red Bull. The main focus
of the foundation is the support and
promotion of innovative, high-quality top
research projects which aim to foster the
regeneration of spinal cord injury. Thereby,
the foundation supports applied clinical
as well as basic research-oriented, evaluated
research projects. Within a short
period of time the Wings for Life charity
foundation has managed to bring some
of the world’s most renowned scientists
together to analyse the problems at hand
and to develop strategies for a solution.
READY TO RACE EQUIPMENT
The KTM factory in Mattighofen has for
years been developing, testing and finally
producing highest quality spare parts
that then become part of the official
PowerParts program. Situated immediately
next to the Development- and Racing
Departments, PowerParts is where new
ideas are steadily realised with the aim
of offering all KTM riders individual, and
above all effective improvements for their
bikes. In this activity, KTM is supported
by specially selected partners who are
considered absolute experts in their
fields. That is how KTM has developed,
together with Akrapovic, high performance
exhaust systems, or individual brake
components in cooperation with Beringer,
in partnerships that have been in place
for years. The range of elegant Power
Parts technology on offer through the
PowerParts catalogue in 2008 reaches
out to suit the entire range of KTM models.
PowerParts is all about developing the
latest highest quality parts, also for all
the brand new KTM models.
This guarantees that as soon as these new models hit the market, they are
accompanied by just the right range of
matching parts. Ahead of the season’s
model launch, the PowerParts technicians have also been busy preparing an exciting
range, also for the brand new 1190 RC8, the first ever KTM Superbike.
The complete 2008 PowerParts range for Offroad is already available and the
catalogue for Onroad products will be

charge of professionals who between
them have registered more than two
dozen world championship titles.

more international and with an increasing
number of branch offices in Europe.
