Attention: Never let your child remain seated in the
child-carrier seat of an unguarded standing bike! The
bike can fall over and your child can get seriously in-
jured.
We recommend that a service is done once a year
by your KTM dealer (see completion certificate). Small
maintenance works should be done after the following
guideline:
Maintenance work Interval
Check tyre pressure after every ride
Check brake's wear monthly
Clean and lubricate chain monthly or when very dirty
Check gear shifting quarterly
Check wheels and spokes-sus-
pense
quarterly
Check all screws quarterly
Dealer service once a year
A service should be done by your KTM dealer after the
first 300-500 kilometres!
Especially the screws and cables ‘work’ a lot in this
time!
Maintenance & Care
Luggage or a child seat influences the usual hand-
ling of the bicycle substantially.
With the extra weight the cyclist might lose control
over his bike and starts fishtailing. Among others
the braking distance is extended. Familiarize you
self with the changed properties and adjust your
driving style accordingly.
