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 characteristics, even if this means that you
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 there may exist minor discrepancies resulting from further design
upgrades 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.
Many motorcyclists have a good working knowledge of motorcycle mechanics; if
this is true in your case, you will be able to use this manual to carry out most of
the maintenance steps yourself. If, on the other hand, you are not very familiar
with motorcycles, it might be better to have a professional KTM dealer perform
those steps marked

described in the chapter entitled “Maintenance Work on
Chassis and Engine” of this manual.

liable for damage that arises in connection with the use of other products.

intervals. 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.
We wish you a lot of fun when driving !
