2 Removal or puncturing of parts of the intake system.

3 Lack of proper maintenance.

4 Replacing moving parts of the vehicle, or parts of the exhaust system or intake system, with parts other than those specified by the manufacturer.

2.6

Safe operation

Danger

Danger of accidents A rider who is not fit to ride poses a danger to him or herself and others.

– Do not operate the vehicle if you are not fit to ride due to alcohol, drugs or medication.

– Do not operate the vehicle if you are physically or mentally impaired.

Danger

Danger of poisoning Exhaust gases are toxic and inhaling them may result in unconsciousness and death.

– Always make sure there is sufficient ventilation when running the engine.

– Use effective exhaust extraction when starting or running the engine in an enclosed space.

Warning

Danger of burns Some vehicle components become very hot when the vehicle is operated.

– Do not touch any parts such as the exhaust system, radiator, engine, shock absorber, or brake system before the vehicle parts have cooled down.

– Let the vehicle parts cool down before you perform any work on the vehicle.

Only operate the vehicle when it is in perfect technical condition, in accordance with its intended use, and in a safe and environmentally compatible manner.

An appropriate driver's license is needed to drive the vehicle on public roads.

Have malfunctions that impair safety promptly eliminated by an authorized KTM workshop.

2 SAFETY ADVICE

2.7

Protective clothing

Warning

Risk of injury Missing or poor protective clothing presents an increased safety risk.

– Wear appropriate protective clothing such as helmet, boots, gloves as well as trousers and a jacket with protectors on all rides.

– Always wear protective clothing that is in good condition and meets the legal regulations.

In the interest of your own safety, KTM recommends that you only operate the vehicle while wearing protective clothing.

2.8

Work rules

Unless specified otherwise, the ignition must be turned off during all work (models with ignition lock, models with remote key) or the engine must be at a standstill (models without ignition lock or remote key).

Special tools are necessary for certain tasks. The tools are not a component of the vehicle, but can be ordered using the number in parentheses. Example: bearing puller (15112017000)

During assembly, use new parts to replace parts which cannot be reused (e.g. self-locking screws and nuts, expansion screws, seals, sealing rings, O-rings, pins, and lock washers).

In the case of certain screws, a screw adhesive (e.g.

Loctite ® ) is required. Observe the manufacturer's instructions.

If thread locker (e.g., Precote ® ) has already been applied to a new part, do not apply any additional thread locker.

After disassembly, clean the parts that are to be reused and check them for damage and wear. Change damaged or worn parts.

After completing a repair or service work, check the operating safety of the vehicle.

2.9

Environment

If you use your motorcycle responsibly, you can ensure that problems and conflicts do not occur. To protect the future of the motorcycle sport, make sure that you use your motorcycle legally, display environmental consciousness, and respect the rights of others.

When disposing of used oil, other operating and auxiliary fluids, and used components, comply with the laws and regulations of the respective country.

Because motorcycles are not subject to the EU regulations governing the disposal of used vehicles, there are no legal regulations that pertain to the disposal of an end-of-life motorcycle. Your authorized KTM dealer will be glad to advise you.

2.10

Owner's Manual

Read this owner's manual carefully and completely before making your first trip. The Owner's Manual contains useful information and many tips on how to operate, handle, and service your motorcycle. This is the only way to find out how best to customize the vehicle for your own use and how you can protect yourself from injury.

Tip

Store the Owner's Manual on your terminal device, for example, so that you can read it whenever you need to.

If you would like to know more about the vehicle or have questions on the material you read, please contact an authorized KTM dealer.

The Owner's Manual is an important component of the vehicle. If the vehicle is sold, the Owner's Manual must be downloaded again by the new owner.

The Owner's Manual can be downloaded several times using the QR code or the link on the delivery certificate.

The Owner's Manual is also available for download from your authorized KTM dealer and on the KTM website. A printed copy can also be ordered from your authorized KTM dealer.

IMPORTANT NOTES 3

3.1

Manufacturer warranty, implied warranty

The work prescribed in the service schedule must only be carried out in an authorized KTM workshop and confirmed in the KTM Dealer.net

, as otherwise all warranty claims will be void. Damage or secondary damage caused by tampering with and/or conversions on the vehicle are not covered by the manufacturer warranty.

3.2

Fuel, auxiliary substances

Note

Environmental hazard Improper handling of fuel is a danger to the environment.

– Do not allow fuel to enter the groundwater, the soil, or the sewage system.

Use fuels and auxiliary substances in accordance with the Owner's Manual and specification.

3.3

Spare parts, accessories

For your own safety, only use spare parts and accessory products that are approved and/or recommended by KTM and have them installed by an authorized KTM workshop. KTM accepts no liability for other products and any resulting damage or loss.

Certain spare parts and accessory products are specified in parentheses in the descriptions. Your authorized KTM dealer will be glad to advise you.

The current KTM PowerParts for your vehicle can be found on the KTM website.


3.4

Service

A prerequisite for perfect operation and prevention of premature wear is that the service, care, and tuning work on the engine and chassis is properly carried out as described in the Owner's Manual. An incorrect suspension setting can lead to damage and breakage of chassis components.

Use of the vehicle under difficult conditions, such as dusty environments, heavy rain, high heat or with a heavy load, can lead to considerably more rapid wear of components such as the air filter, drive train, brake system, or suspension components. For this reason, it may be necessary to inspect or replace parts before the next scheduled service.

It is imperative that you adhere to the stipulated run-in times and service intervals. If you observe these exactly, you will ensure a much longer service life for your motorcycle.

The relevant mileage or time interval is whichever occurs first.

3.5

Figures

The figures contained in the manual may depict special equipment.

In the interest of clarity, some components may be shown disassembled or may not be shown at all. It is not always necessary to disassemble the component to perform the activity in question. Please follow the instructions in the text.

3.6

Customer service

Your authorized KTM dealer will be happy to answer any questions you may have on your vehicle and KTM.

A list of authorized KTM dealers can be found on the KTM website.

10.8

Engine traction torque control (MSR)

The MSR is a function of the engine control.

If the engine braking effect is too great, the MSR prevents the rear wheel from locking or sliding away on a sloping position.

To avoid slip of the rear wheel, the MSR only opens the throttle valve as far as absolutely necessary.

The MSR is applied on surfaces, where the friction coefficient is to low to open the slipper clutch.

To further increase ride safety, the MSR is slope dependent.

402423-01

Info

When the ABS or active ABS mode Supermoto is switched off, the MSR is not active.

56


10.9

Applying the brakes

Warning

Danger of accidents Moisture and dirt impair the brake system.

Warning

Danger of accidents A spongy pressure point on the front or rear brake reduces braking efficiency.

– Check the brake system and do not continue riding until the problem is eliminated. (Your authorized

KTM workshop will be glad to help.)

Warning


If the foot brake lever is not released, the brake linings drag continuously.

– Take your foot off the foot brake lever if you do not want to brake.

Warning

Danger of accidents Higher total weight increases the stopping distance.

– Take the longer stopping distance into account when carrying a passenger or luggage with you.

Warning

Danger of accidents Salt on the roads impairs the brake system.

– Brake carefully several times to remove salt from the brake linings and the brake discs.

Warning

Danger of accidents ABS may increase the stopping distance in certain situations.

– Adjust application of the brakes to the respective riding situation and riding surface conditions.

Warning

Danger of accidents Excessively forceful application of the brakes blocks the wheels.

The ABS effectiveness is only ensured if it is switched on.

– Leave the ABS switched on in order to benefit from the protective effect.

Warning

Danger of accidents The rear wheel can lock due to the engine braking effect.

– Pull in the clutch, if you perform emergency or full braking, or if you brake on a slippery ground.

– When braking, release the throttle and apply the front and rear brakes at the same time.

Info

When ABS is active, you can achieve maximum braking power even on low grip surfaces such as sandy, wet, or slippery terrain without locking of the tires.

Warning

Danger of accidents Banked or laterally sloping ground reduces the maximum possible delay.

– If possible finish braking before going into a bend.

– Braking should always be completed before you go into a bend. Change down to a lower gear appropriate to your road speed.

57


– On long downhill stretches, use the braking effect of the engine. Change down one or two gears, but do not over rev the engine. As a result, you will have to apply the brakes far less frequently and the brake system will not overheat.

Significant damage may be caused if the vehicle rolls away or falls over.

The components for parking the vehicle are designed only for the weight of the vehicle.

– Park the vehicle on a firm and level surface.

– Ensure that nobody sits on the vehicle when the vehicle is parked on a stand.

Note

Fire hazard Hot vehicle components pose a fire hazard and explosion risk.

– Do not park the vehicle near to materials which are highly flammable or explosive.

– Allow the vehicle to cool down before covering it.

– Apply the brakes on the motorcycle.


– Switch off the ignition by turning the ignition key to the position .

Info

If the engine is switched off with the emergency OFF switch and the ignition remains switched on at the ignition lock, power continues to flow to most power consumers. This discharges the 12-V battery.

You should therefore always switch off the engine with the ignition lock – the emergency OFF switch is intended for emergencies only.

– Park the motorcycle on a firm surface.

– Swing side stand forward with your foot as far as it will go and lean the vehicle on it.

– Lock the steering by turning the handlebar fully to the left, pressing down the ignition key to the position and turning it to the position . To make the steering lock engage more easily, move the handlebar a little to the left and right. Remove the ignition key.

Refueling

Danger

Fire hazard Fuel is highly flammable.

The fuel in the fuel tank expands when warm and can escape if overfilled.

– Do not fuel the vehicle in the vicinity of open flames or lit cigarettes.

– Switch off the engine for refueling.

– Make sure that no fuel is spilled; particularly not on hot parts of the vehicle.

– If any fuel is spilled, wipe it off immediately.

– Observe the specifications for refueling.

Warning

Danger of poisoning Fuel is poisonous and a health hazard.

– Avoid skin, eye and clothing contact with fuel.

– Immediately consult a doctor if you swallow fuel.

– Do not inhale fuel vapors.

– In case of skin contact, rinse the affected area with plenty of water.

– Rinse the eyes thoroughly with water, and consult a doctor in case of fuel contact with the eyes.

– Change your clothing in case of fuel spills on them.

Note

Material damage Inadequate fuel quality causes the fuel filter to quickly become clogged.

In some countries and regions, the available fuel quality and cleanliness may not be sufficient. This will result in problems with the fuel system.

– Refuel only with clean fuel that meets the specified standards. (Your authorized KTM workshop will be glad to help.)

BRAKE SYSTEM 14

14.1

Anti-lock braking system (ABS)

ABS module 1 , which consists of a hydraulic unit, ABS control unit, and return pump, is installed under the fuel tank. One wheel speed sensor 2 is located in each case on the front and the rear wheel.

Warning

Danger of accidents Changes to the vehicle impair the function of the ABS.

– Do not make any changes to the suspension travel.

– Only use spare parts on the brake system which have been approved and recommended by KTM.


– Maintain the specified tire pressure.

– Ensure that service work and repairs are performed professionally. (Your authorized KTM workshop will be glad to help.)

H02670-10

The ABS is a safety system that prevents locking of the wheels when driving straight ahead without the influence of lateral forces.

Warning

Danger of accidents Driving aids can reduce the probability of a fall only within physical limits.

It is not always possible to compensate for extreme riding situations, for example with luggage loaded with a high center of gravity, varying road surfaces, steep descents or full braking without disengaging the gear.

– Adapt your riding style to the road conditions and your driving ability.

The ABS operates with two independent brake circuits (front and rear brakes). During normal operation, the brake system operates like a conventional brake system without ABS. When the ABS control unit detects a locking tendency in a wheel, ABS begins regulating the brake pressure. The control function causes a slight pulsing of the hand and foot brake levers.

The ABS warning lamp 3 must light up after the ignition is switched on and go out after starting off. If it does not go out after starting off or if it lights up while riding, this indicates a fault in the ABS. In this case, the ABS is no longer enabled and the wheels may lock during braking. The brake system itself stays functional; only ABS control is not available.

The ABS warning lamp may also light up if the rotating speeds of the front and rear wheels differ greatly under extreme riding conditions, for example when making "wheelies" or if the rear wheel spins. This causes the ABS to switch off.

To reactivate the ABS, stop the vehicle and switch off the ignition.

The ABS is reactivated when the vehicle is switched on again. The

ABS warning lamp goes out after starting off.

COOLING SYSTEM 17

17.1

Cooling system

V01254-10

Water pump 1 in the engine ensures forced circulation of the coolant.

The pressure resulting from the warming of the cooling system is regulated by a valve in radiator cap 2 . Heat expansion causes excess coolant to flow into compensating tank 3 . When the temperature falls, this surplus coolant is sucked back into the cooling system. This ensures that operating the vehicle at the specified coolant temperature will not result in a risk of malfunctions.

115 °C (239 °F)

The coolant is cooled by the air stream and a radiator fan 4 , which is activated at high temperature.

The lower the speed, the less the cooling effect. Dirty cooling fins also reduce the cooling effect.

H02695-10

17.2

CLEANING, CARE 20

20.1

Cleaning the motorcycle

Note

Material damage Components become damaged or destroyed if a pressure cleaner is used incorrectly.

The high pressure forces water into the electrical components, connectors, throttle cables, and bearings, etc.

Pressure which is too high causes malfunctions and destroys components.

– Do not direct the water jet directly on to electrical components, connectors, throttle cables or bearings.

– Maintain a minimum distance between the nozzle of the pressure cleaner and the component.

Minimum clearance 60 cm (23.6 in)

Note



Info

To maintain the value and appearance of the motorcycle over a long period, clean it regularly.

Avoid direct sunshine when cleaning the motorcycle.

– Close off exhaust system to keep water from entering.

– Remove loose dirt first with a soft jet of water.

– Spray the heavily soiled parts with a normal commercial motorcycle cleaner and clean using a brush.

Motorcycle cleaner ( p. 132)

401061-01

Info

Use warm water containing normal motorcycle cleaner and a soft sponge. Never apply motorcycle cleaner to a dry vehicle; always rinse the vehicle with water first.

If the vehicle was operated in road salt, clean it with cold water. Warm water would enhance the corrosive effects of salt.

– After rinsing the motorcycle with a gentle spray of water, allow it to dry thoroughly.

– Remove the closure of the exhaust system.

Warning

Danger of accidents Moisture and dirt impair the brake system.

– Brake carefully several times to dry out and remove dirt from the brake linings and the brake discs.

– After cleaning, ride the vehicle a short distance until the engine warms up.

Info

The heat produced causes water at inaccessible locations in the engine and on the brake system to evaporate.

113

20 CLEANING, CARE

– After the motorcycle has cooled down, lubricate all moving parts and pivot points.

–


– Treat bare metal (except for brake discs and the exhaust system) with a corrosion inhibitor.

Preserving materials for paints, metal and rubber

( p. 132)

– Treat all painted parts with a mild paint care product.

Perfect finish and high gloss polish for paints ( p. 132)

Info

Do not polish parts that were matte when delivered as this would strongly impair the material quality.

– Treat all plastic parts and powder-coated parts with a mild cleaning and care product.

Special cleaner for glossy and matte paint finishes, metal

and plastic surfaces ( p. 132)

– Lubricate the ignition/steering lock.

Universal oil spray ( p. 132)

20.2

Checks and maintenance steps for winter operation

Info

If you use the motorcycle in winter, salt can be expected on the roads. You should therefore take precautions against aggressive road salt.

After riding on salted roads, thoroughly clean the vehicle with cold water and dry it well. Warm water enhances the corrosive effects of salt.

401060-01

–

Clean the motorcycle. ( p. 113)

– Clean the brake system.

Info

After EVERY trip on salted roads, thoroughly clean the brake calipers and brake linings, after they have cooled down and without removing them, with cold water and dry them carefully.

After riding on salted roads, thoroughly clean the motorcycle with cold water and dry it well.

– Treat the engine, the swingarm, and all other bare or zincplated parts (except the brake discs) with a wax-based corrosion inhibitor.

Info

Corrosion inhibitor must not come in contact with the brake discs as this would greatly reduce the braking force.

–


114

STORAGE 21

21.1

Storage

Info

If you plan to garage the motorcycle for a longer period, perform the following steps or have them performed.

Before storing the motorcycle, check all parts for function and wear. If service, repairs, or replacements are necessary, you should do this during the storage period (less workshop overload). In this way, you can avoid long workshop waiting times at the start of the new season.

401058-01

– When refueling for the last time before taking the motorcycle out of service, add fuel additive.

– Remove the 12-V battery.

( p. 89)

– Charge the 12-V battery.

( p. 91)

Guideline

Storage temperature of the

12-V battery without direct sunlight

0 … 35 °C (32 … 95 °F)

– Store the vehicle in a dry location that is not subject to large fluctuations in temperature.

Info

KTM recommends jacking up the motorcycle.

–


–


– Cover the vehicle with a tarp or similar cover that is permeable to air.

Info

Do not use non-porous materials since they prevent humidity from escaping, thus causing corrosion.

Avoid running the engine for a short time only. Since the engine cannot warm up properly, the water vapor produced during combustion condenses and causes valves and the exhaust system to rust.

STANDARDS 27

JASO T903 MA2

Different technical development directions required a separate specification for motorcycles – the JASO T903 MA2 standard.

Earlier, engine oils from the automobile industry were used for motorcycles because there was no separate motorcycle specification.

Whereas long service intervals are demanded for automobile engines, the focus for motorcycle engines is on high performance at high engine speeds.

In most motorcycle engines, the transmission and clutch are lubricated with the same oil.

The JASO T903 MA2 standard meets these special requirements.

SAE

The SAE viscosity classes were defined by the Society of Automotive Engineers and are used for classifying oils according to their viscosity. The viscosity describes only one property of oil and says nothing about quality.
