10.9
MSR (optional)
402423-01
The
MSR
is an optional auxiliary function of the engine control.
If the engine braking effect is too great, the
MSR
prevents the rear
wheel from locking or sliding away on a sloping position.
To avoid slip of the rear wheel, the
MSR
only opens the throttle
valve as far as absolutely necessary.
The
MSR
is applied on surfaces, where the friction coefficient is to
low to open the slipper clutch.
To further increase ride safety, the
MSR
is slope dependent.
Info
If ABS is disabled, the cornering MTC is disabled or
ABS Mode
Supermoto
is enabled, the
MSR
is not active.

Applying the brakes
Warning
Danger of accidents
Moisture and dirt impair the brake system.
–
Brake carefully several times to dry out and remove dirt from the brake linings and the brake discs.
Warning
Danger of accidents
A spongy pressure point on the front or rear brake reduces braking efficiency.
–
Check the brake system and do not continue riding until the problem is eliminated. (Your authorized
KTM workshop will be glad to help.)
