Money?what's money?...and what's an engineer? Wtshtf,all you non-survivalist types are sool.
Why wouldn't everyone pony up a little extra cash for a KTM.Advanced technology costs $$ you know.

Oem's are cast.When it came time to replace the piston on my 02 KTM way back when,I was wavering between a Vertex and oem-until I took the original out and flipped it over-it had Vertex stamped on it.

Damn,I missed the good pic.   Oh well.As I said,I know nothing about that but having torn,broken,dislocated and separated multiple other things,I can't possibly see how it would ever function at all if it wasn't reattached.Once you get older,old injuries return to haunt you.I've long found that if the doc says do it-do it.The last thing you'd want is to have a useless wing hanging there in 20 yrs time.
Good luck Coop.

Up until the last couple years,a camelbak with a 50/50 mix of water and powerade.Stuffed in with that,a pack of Canadian Classic King Size Silver and a bic lighter.The last couple years,just the water and powerade.

What is really odd is the same part is a different price from Husaberg to KTM.
Thermostat KTM 300 $68
Thermostat Husa 300 $32

Just like automotive-lol.Many moons ago,a headlight switch for a Chevette was about $10.A headlight switch for a Malibu was about $25.A headlight switch for a Corvette was about $50. You guessed it,same part.

I know absolutely nothing about it but by the sounds of it,maybe surgery would be a better fix and faster recovery?
I don't know but it's hard to figure it could roll itself back down and heal right.

  Oh man Coop,you have the worst shithouse luck.Hopefully you won't require surgery and heal up before the summer months.

KTM/Husaberg thing is just badge engineering which is done all the time in the automotive world. C'est la vie.

That's true 2Tinstitute.Maybe we should be more grateful to KTM EVO.They've saved Husaberg by making them a blue and yellow KTM.Maybe they'll save Husqvarna by making them a white and red KTM.Choose your colour.

D'oh,that's too bad.
They planned an HS on mothers day here a few years ago.I told them they were crazy but they did anyway-and almost none showed.They never did it again.Before my daughter came along,I used to go hunting on Christmas day,but it was always understood you were there for mothers day-lol.
