–
Shift into a higher gear when conditions allow (incline, road
situation, etc.).
–
Release the throttle while simultaneously pulling the clutch
lever, shift into the next gear, release the clutch lever, and
open the throttle.
Info
The gear positions can be seen in the figure. The idle
position is between the first and second gears. First
gear is used for starting off or for steep inclines.
–
After reaching maximum speed by fully opening the throttle
grip, turn the throttle back so it is ¾ open. This will barely
reduce the speed, but fuel consumption will be considerably
lower.
–
Accelerate only up to a speed suitable for the road surface and
weather conditions. Particularly in bends, do not shift, and
accelerate very carefully.
–
Brake if necessary and close the throttle at the same time in
order to shift down.
–
Pull clutch lever and shift into a lower gear, release the clutch
lever slowly, and open the throttle or shift again.
–
Switch off the engine if you are likely to be running at idle
speed or stationary for a long time.
–
If the engine stalls (e.g. at an intersection), just pull the clutch
lever and actuate the start button. The transmission must not
be shifted into neutral.
–
If the oil pressure warning lamp lights up during a trip, stop
as soon as it is safe to do so and switch off the engine. Contact
an authorized KTM workshop.
–
If the malfunction indicator lamp lights up during a trip,
please contact an authorized KTM workshop as soon as possi-
ble.
–
If the general warning lamp lights up during a trip, an oper-
ating safety (warning) message was detected.
Info
All warnings which have occurred are displayed and
stored in the
