IMPORTANT INFORMATION
8
Use definition
KTM sport motorcycles are designed and constructed to meet the normal demands of regular road and race track operation, but not for use
on dirt roads.
Info
The motorcycle is authorized for public road traffic in the homologous version only.
Maintenance
A prerequisite for fault-free operation and avoiding premature wear is compliance with the maintenance, care and adjustments to the
engine and chassis described in the owner's manual. Poor adjustment and tuning of the engine and suspension can lead to damage and
breakage of components.
Using the motorcycle in extreme conditions such as racing can lead to above-average wear to components such as the power train or
brakes. For this reason, it may be necessary to service or replace worn parts before the limit specified in the service schedule is reached.
Pay careful attention to the prescribed running-in period and inspection and maintenance intervals. Close adherence to these periods will
significantly lengthen the service life of your motorcycle.
Warranty
The work described in the service schedule must be carried out exclusively in an authorized KTM-RC8 workshop and confirmed in the ser-
vice record, since otherwise any warranty claim is meaningless. No warranty claim can be met for damage resulting from manipulation
and/or other changes to the vehicle.
Materials
The fuels and lubricants named in the owner's manual must be used according to specifications.
Spare parts, accessories
In the interests of your own safety, use only spare parts and accessories approved and/or recommended by KTM, and have these fitted in
an authorized KTM-RC8 workshop. KTM accepts no liability for other products and any resulting damage.
