Storage
Warning
Danger of poisoning
Fuel is poisonous and a health hazard.
–
Fuel must not come into contact with the skin, eyes, or clothing. Do not breathe in the fuel vapors. If contact occurs with
the eyes, rinse with water immediately and contact a physician. Immediately clean contaminated areas on the skin with
soap and water. If fuel is swallowed, contact a physician immediately. Change clothing that is contaminated with fuel.
Store fuel properly in a suitable canister and keep away from children.
Info
If you want to put the motorcycle into storage for a longer period, take the following actions.
Before storing the motorcycle, check all parts for function and wear. If service, repairs or replacements are necessary, you
should do this during the storage period (less workshop overload). In this way, you can avoid long workshop waiting times at the
start of the new season.

Info
KTM recommends raising the motorcycle.
–

–
Cover the vehicle with a tarp or cover that is permeable to air.
Info
Do not use non-porous materials since they prevent humidity from escaping,
thus causing corrosion.
Avoid running the engine for a short time only. Because the engine will not
warm up sufficiently, the water vapor produced during combustion will con-
dense, causing engine parts and the exhaust system to rust.
