IMPORTANT INFORMATION 7

Use definition

KTM sport motorcycles are designed and constructed to meet the normal demands of regular road and light offroad operation (dirt roads),

but not for use on race courses.

Info

The motorcycle is authorized for public road traffic in the homologous version only.

Maintenance

A prerequisite for perfect operation and prevention of wear is that the engine and chassis maintenance and adjustment work described in

the owner's manual are properly carried out. Poor adjustment and tuning of the engine and chassis can lead to damage and breakage of

components.

Using the motorcycle in extreme conditions such as very muddy or wet roads can lead to above-average wear of components such as the

transmission train or the brakes. For this reason, it may be necessary to service or replace worn parts before the limit specified in the ser-

vice schedule is reached.

Pay careful attention to the prescribed running-in period, inspection and maintenance intervals. If you observe these exactly, you will

ensure a much longer service life for your motorcycle.

Warranty

The work prescribed in the service plan must only be carried out in an authorized KTM workshop and confirmed in the service record; oth-

erwise all warranty claims will be disregarded. No warranty claim can be met for damage resulting from manipulation and/or other changes

to the vehicle.

Fuel, oils, etc.

You should use the fuels, oils and greases according to specifications as listed in the owner's manual.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION 8

Spare parts, accessories

For your own safety, only use spare parts and accessory products that have been 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.

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

You will find the current KTM PowerParts for your vehicle on the KTM website.

International KTM Website: http://www.ktm.com

Work rules

Special tools are necessary for certain tasks. The tools are not contained in the vehicle but can be ordered under the number in parenthe-

ses. Example: valve spring mounter (59029019000)

During assembly, non-reusable parts (e.g. self-locking screws and nuts, seals and seal rings, O-rings, pins, lock washers) must be replaced

by new parts.

If a thread lock (e.g. Loctite

®

) is used for screw connections, be sure to comply with the manufacturer's specific instructions on its usage.

Parts that you want to reuse following repairs and servicing should be cleaned and checked for damage and wear. Change damaged or

worn parts.

Following repairs or servicing, the vehicle must be checked for roadworthiness.

Transport

Note

Danger of damage The parked vehicle may roll away or fall over.

– Always place the vehicle on a firm and even surface.

Note

Fire hazard Some vehicle components become very hot when the vehicle is operated.

– Do not park the vehicle near flammable or explosive substances. Do not place objects on the vehicle while it is still warm from being

run. Always let the vehicle cool first.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION 9

– Switch off the engine and remove the ignition key.

– Use straps or other suitable devices to secure the motorcycle against accidents or falling over.

Environment

Offroad motorcycling is a wonderful sport and we naturally hope that you will be able to enjoy it to the fullest. However, it is a potential

problem for the environment and can lead to conflicts with other persons. But if you use your motorcycle responsibly, you can ensure that

such problems and conflicts do not have to occur. To protect the future of motorcycle sport, make sure that you use your motorcycle

legally, display environmental consciousness, and respect the rights of others.

order a recall and remady campaign. However, NHTSA cannot become involved in individual problems between you, your dealer, or KTM

North America, Inc.

To contact NHTSA, you may either call the Auto Safety Hotline toll-free at 1–888–327–4236 or visit the website www.nhtsa.dot.gov, or
