And are they going to force their dealers to build facilities like this just like a well known American manufacturer did ?

Before I bought the Tenere700, I was interested in KTM.

Two dealers, 20 miles away, and one 65 miles away, no stock, kicked the dirt, and said: "well, you could put a deposit on one for next year"
Sight unseen.
Nope.
Gonna leave that for the fanboi's.
It was cult-like.

And how’s that T7 doing? You’ve had it a while now. What’s your thoughts / opinions ?

It does everything I expected. And more.
I rode 2,300 miles of the TAT on it, and it performed flawlessly.
It's not "ready to race", and, I wasn't intending on racing it.💡😎

Then again, the '69 BSA did it's job with little fuss, a puncture being the worst.

This may interest Norton owners as I have seen the use of decompressor buttons on high comp Norton engines.
