DRIVING INSTRUCTIONS
What you should check before each start
When you start off, the motorcycle must be in a perfect technical condition.
For safety reasons, you should make it a habit to perform an overall check
of your motorcycle before each start.
The following checks should be performed:
1 CHECK TRANSMISSION OIL LEVEL
A lack of gear oil leads to premature wear and finally results in
destruction of the gear wheels.
2 FUEL
Check that there is sufficient fuel in the tank; when closing the filler cap,
check that the tank venting hose is free of kinks.
3 COOLING FLUID
Check the level of cooling fluid when the engine is cold.
4 CHAIN
A loose chain was fall off the chain wheels; an extremely worn chain may
tear, and insufficient lubrication may result in unnecessary wear of the
chain and chain wheels.
5 TIRES
Check for damaged tires. Tires showing cuts or dents must be replaced.
Also check the air pressure. Insufficient tread and incorrect air pressure
deteriorate the driving performance.
6 BRAKES
Check for proper functioning, check brake fluid level in the tank. The tank
is designed such that it does not need to be refilled, even if the brake shoes
are worn. If the brake fluid falls below the minimum level, the brake system
is either leaking or the brake shoes are completely worn out. Have the
brake system checked at a KTM workshop to avoid brake failure. Also have
the condition of the brake hose and the brake lining thickness checked.
Check the play of the hand brake lever and foot brake lever.
7 THROTTLE CABLE
Check the throttle cable for proper adjustment and smooth operation.
