After disassembly, clean the parts that are to be reused and check them for damage and wear. Replace damaged
or worn parts.
After completing a repair or service, check the operating safety of the vehicle.
2.6
Environment
Handling the vehicle responsibly reduces the risk of conflict with other road users and the surrounding area. The
future of motorcycling also depends on using motorcycles legally, being environmentally conscious and respecting
the rights of others.
When disposing of used oil, other operating and auxiliary fluids, and used components, the laws and regulations
of the respective country must be observed.
As motorcycles are not subject to the EU regulations governing the disposal of end-of-life vehicles, there are no
legal regulations that pertain to the disposal of an end-of-life motorcycle. More information is available from authorized KTM dealers.

Important notes
3.1
Manufacturer's warranty, implied warranty
The work specified in the service schedule must only be carried out by an authorized KTM workshop and confirmed in KTM Dealer.net, otherwise all warranty claims will be invalidated. Damage or secondary damage caused
by tampering with and/or conversions on the vehicle are not covered by the manufacturer's warranty.
3.2
Auxiliary material, operating material
Use operating materials and auxiliary materials in accordance with the operating instructions and specifications.
3.3
Spare parts, accessories
For safety reasons, only spare parts and accessories approved by KTM may be used. Installation must be carried
out in an authorized KTM workshop. KTM accepts no liability for other products and any resulting damage or loss.

International KTM Website: https://www.ktm.com
3.4
Service
A prerequisite for perfect operation and prevention of premature wear is that the service, care, and tuning work 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 increased wear of components such as the air filter, powertrain, brake systems, or suspension
components. For this reason, it may be necessary to inspect or replace components before the next scheduled
service interval.
The prescribed running-in times and service intervals must be observed, otherwise the long-term durability of the
vehicle will be severely impaired.
The relevant mileage or time interval is whichever occurs first.
3.5
Figures
Some of the figures in this document contain optional extras.
For clarity, some components may be shown disassembled or may not be shown at all. Disassembly is not always
absolutely necessary in order to carry out the activities described. The textual information takes precedence.

Braking
WARNING
Danger of accidents Moisture and dirt impair the brake system.
‒ Brake carefully several times to dry out and remove dirt from the brake pads and the brake discs.
WARNING
Danger of accidents A spongy pressure point on the front or rear brake reduces the brake action.
‒ Do not drive the vehicle if the brake system has a spongy pressure point.
WARNING
Danger of accidents The brake system fails in the event of overheating.
If the brake pedal is not released, the brake pads grind continuously.
‒ Take your foot off the brake pedal when you are not braking.
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.
‒ Adapt your braking to the riding situation and the road conditions.
WARNING
Danger of accidents Braking with excessive force locks 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 the clutch when performing emergency braking or braking on slippery surfaces.
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 certain 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.
‒
When braking, release the throttle and apply the front and rear brakes at the same time.
Note
When the ABS is enabled, maximum braking power can be applied even on surfaces with low road grip
such as sandy, wet, or slippery terrain without the danger of the wheels locking.

The high-speed compression adjuster, for example, has an effect when riding over an asphalt edge: the rear wheel
suspension compresses quickly.
The low-speed compression has an effect, for example, when riding over long bumps: the rear wheel suspension
compresses slowly.
These two ranges can be adjusted separately, although the transition between high-speed and low-speed is gradual. As a result, changes in the high-speed range affect the compression damping in the low-speed range and vice
versa.

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 the vehicle manufacturer.
‒ Only use tires and wheels approved and recommended
by the vehicle manufacturer with the corresponding
speed rating.
‒ Maintain the specified tire pressure.
‒ Ensure that service work and repairs are performed

The ABS is a safety system that prevents the wheels locking when
driving straight ahead or when cornering (within the limits of
physics).
WARNING
H03497-10
Danger of accidents Driving aids can reduce the probability
of a fall only within physical limits.
It is not always possible to compensate for certain 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.
WARNING
Danger of accidents An incorrectly selected ABS mode
makes it more difficult to control the vehicle.
The ABS modes are each only suitable for certain
conditions.
‒ Always select an ABS mode that suits the ground and
the riding situation.
The ABS control is dependent on the riding mode. ABS has two
operating modes: the Road and Offroad ABS modes.
In riding modes Street and Rain, the ABS controls both wheels.
In riding mode Offroad, there is no ABS control on the rear wheel.
ABS can be configured in riding mode Rally (optional).
In ABS mode Road, ABS controls both wheels.
In ABS mode Offroad, there is no ABS control on the rear wheel.
111
14
14 Brake system
Note
In the Offroad ABS mode, the rear wheel may lock and there
is a risk of falling.
The curve dependent control is only active in ABS mode
Road.
The ABS operates with two independent brake circuits (front and
rear brakes). 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.
3
The ABS warning light
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 is lit 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 &quot;wheelies&quot; 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 light goes out after starting off.

Checking the brake discs
WARNING
Danger of accidents Worn-out brake discs reduce the braking action.
‒ Make sure that worn-out brake discs are replaced immediately.

‒
Briefly tap each spoke with a screwdriver.
You should hear a high-pitched sound.
Note
The frequency of the sound depends on the spoke length
and spoke diameter.
If spokes of the same length and diameter vibrate with
a different tone, this is an indication that the spoke
tensions differ.

Tubeless tire system
This vehicle uses a tubeless tire system in which a rim seal
band
is used instead of the conventional tube.
The advantage of the tubeless system is that there is no danger
of a faulty tube. This greatly reduces the risk of a sudden loss in
pressure.
The moments of inertia of these wheels are smaller than in conventional spoked wheels with a tube. This results in better handling and riding comfort.
The rigid rim design results in a wire spoke wheel that is almost
entirely maintenance-free.
KTM recommends that the rim seal band be changed after 5 years
at the latest, regardless of the actual state of wear.

Electrics
Note
Even when there is no load on the 12-V battery, it discharges steadily each day.
The state of charge and the method of charging are very important for the service life of the 12 V battery.
Rapid recharging with a high charging current shortens the service life of the battery.
If the charging current, charging voltage, or charging time is exceeded, electrolyte escapes through the
safety valves. This reduces the capacity of the 12-V battery.
If the 12 V battery is depleted from starting the vehicle repeatedly, the battery must be charged immediately.
If the 12-V battery is left in a discharged state for an extended period, it will become deeply discharged
and sulfating occurs, destroying the battery.
The 12 V battery is maintenance-free. The acid level does not have to be checked.

regulated by a valve in radiator cap
. Heat expansion causes
excess coolant to flow into compensating tank
. 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.

Checks and maintenance steps for winter operation
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 Oil, grease or wax on the brake discs reduces the brake action.
‒ Always keep the brake discs free of oil, fat and wax.
‒ Clean the brake discs with brake cleaner when necessary.
Note
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.

Storage
21.1
Storage
Note
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 (workshops less busy). In this way, you can avoid
long workshop waiting times at the start of the new season.

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

to air.
Do not use any non-porous materials, as moisture cannot
escape and corrosion can occur.
Note
Avoid running the engine of a motorcycle in storage 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.
