Are manufacturers obliged to supply bikes with road legal tyres when they sell them with an "On the road" price?

If so KTM now supply their bikes with Metzeler 6 Days Extreme tyres - I suppose they are road leagl?

Hi Mag,
I see you have a 2009 400. I am a member of the Cambs group and have a 03 200. I am teetering on investing in a new 400. Can you give me you opinion on how you find yours? In particular how plush is the front suspension? My older 200 has probably great race suspension but is completely unable to handle square edges and jars back up the bars. (Too hard for my age now) Is this ok on the 400? Have you ridden a crf or WRF does it compare on plush suspension? or close?
Absolutely love the KTM`s but dont think i can handle a "solid" front end.
Any opinion much appreciated
cheers
