RIDING INSTRUCTIONS 8
25
–
Switch off the engine if you are likely to be running at idle speed or stationary for a long time.
Guideline
≥
1 min
–
Avoid frequent or lengthy slipping of the clutch. This causes the engine oil, engine and cooling system to heat
up.
–
Ride at a low engine speed instead of at a high engine speed with a slipping clutch.
8.7 Applying the brakes
Warning
Danger of accidents
Excessively forceful application of the brakes blocks the wheels.
–
Adjust application of the brakes to the respective riding situation and riding surface conditions.
Warning
Danger of accidents A spongy pressure point on the front or rear brake reduces braking efficiency.
–
Check the brake system and do not continue riding until the problem is eliminated. (Your authorized
KTM workshop will be glad to help.)
Warning
Danger of accidents
Moisture and dirt impair the brake system.
–
Brake carefully several times to dry out and remove dirt from the brake linings and the brake discs.
–
On sandy, wet, or slippery surfaces, use mostly the rear brake.
–
Always finish braking before you go into a bend. Shift down to a lower gear appropriate to your speed.
–
Use the braking effect of the engine on long downhill stretches. Shift back one or two gears, but do not over-
rev the engine when doing so. This means that significantly less braking is required and the brake system
does not overheat.
8.8 Stopping, parking
Warning
Risk of misappropriation People who act without authorization endanger themselves and others.
–
Do not leave the vehicle unattended if the engine is running.
–
Protect the vehicle against access by unauthorized persons.
Warning
Danger of burns Some vehicle components become very hot when the vehicle is operated.
–
Do not touch any parts such as the exhaust system, radiator, engine, shock absorber, or brake system
before the vehicle parts have cooled down.
–
Let the vehicle parts cool down before you perform any work on the vehicle.
Note
Material damage The vehicle may be damaged by incorrect procedure when parking.
Significant damage may be caused if the vehicle rolls away or falls over.
The components for parking the vehicle are designed only for the weight of the vehicle.
–
Park the vehicle on a firm and level surface.
