Introduction
We would like to congratulate you on your purchase of a KTM motorcycle.
You are now the owner of a state-of-the-art sports motorcycle that guarantees to bring
you lots of fun and enjoyment, provided that you clean and maintain it appropriately.
Before you go for your first ride, be sure to read this manual carefully and thoroughly in
order to familiarize yourself with how to operate your new motorcycle and with its cha-
racteristics, even if this means that you will have to dedicate some of your valuable
time to this task. Only by doing so will you learn how to tune your motorbike to your
specific needs and how to protect yourself against injury. Besides, this manual contains
important information on motorcycle maintenance. At the time this manual was typeset,
it was up-to-date with the latest state of this production series. It cannot be completely
ruled out, however, that minor discrepancies may exist resulting from further design upg-
rades of these motorcycles.This manual is an important part of your motorbike and
should be passed on to any subsequent owner in case you decide to sell it.
We expressly point out that work marked with an asterisk in the chapter "Maintenance
work on the chassis and engine" must be performed by a KTM workshop. If mainten-
ance work should become necessary during a competition, it must be performed by a
trained mechanic.
For your own safety, use KTM-approved parts and accessories only. KTM is not liable
for damage that arises in connection with the use of other products.
Take special care to follow the recommended run in, inspection, and maintenance inter-
vals. Heeding these guidelines will significantly increase the life of your motorcycle. Have
services carried out by a KTM dealer so that your warranty claim remains intact.
Off-road motorcycle driving is a wonderful sport and we hope that you will be able to
enjoy it to the full. It may, however, involve potential problems for the environment or
lead to conflicts with others. These problems or conflicts can be avoided if the motorcycle
is used responsibly. To safeguard the future of motorcycle sports, make sure that you use
the motorcycle in accordance with the law, show that you are environmentally conscious
and respect the rights of others.
We wish you a lot of fun when driving !
