11.1
Jacking up the motorcycle
B00011-10
Note
Danger of damage The parked vehicle may roll away or fall over.
–
Always place the vehicle on a firm and even surface.
–
Jack up the motorcycle underneath the engine. The wheels must no longer touch
the ground.
Work stand (54829055000)
–
Secure the motorcycle against falling over.
11.2
Removing the motorcycle from the work stand
Note
Danger of damage The parked vehicle may roll away or fall over.
–
Always place the vehicle on a firm and even surface.
–
Remove the motorcycle from the work stand.
–
Remove the work stand.
11.3
Checking the basic chassis setting with the rider's weight
Info
When adjusting the basic chassis setting, first adjust the shock absorber and then the fork.
–
For optimal motorcycle riding characteristics and to avoid damage to forks, shock absorbers, swing arm and frame, the basic set-
tings of the suspension components must match your body weight.
–
As delivered, KTM offroad motorcycles are adjusted for a standard rider weight (with full protective clothing).
Guideline
Standard rider weight 75… 85 kg (165… 187 lb.)
–
If your weight is above or below the standard range, you need to adjust the basic setting of the suspension components accord-
ingly.
–
Small weight differences can be compensated by adjusting the spring preload, but in the case of large weight differences, the
springs must be replaced.
11.4
Compression damping of shock absorber
The shock absorber can separately regulate compression damping in the low- and high-speed ranges (Dual Compression Control).
Here, low-speed and high-speed refer to the movement of the shock absorber during compression and not the riding speed of the
motorcycle.
Changes in the settings in the low-speed range have an impact on the high-speed range and vice versa.
11.5
Adjusting the high-speed compression damping of the shock absorber
Danger
Danger of accidents Disassembly of pressurized parts can lead to injury.
–
The shock absorber is filled with high density nitrogen. Adhere to the description provided. (Your authorized KTM workshop
will be glad to help.)
Info
The high-speed setting can be seen during the fast compression of the shock absorber.
