Instructions for the first ride
– Verify that your KTM dealer performed the PREPARATION
OF VEHICLE jobs (see Customer Service Manual).
– Before your youngster takes his or her first ride, explain how
each of the controls works and check if your youngster has
understood what you explained. We recommend to review
the entire owner’s manual with your youngster item by item,
paying particular attention to the specially marked warnings
and pointing out the danger of injury.
– Adjust the basic position of the hand brake lever to fit the
size of your child's hand. You child should of course wear
gloves. Adjust the foot brake lever to your child's seating
position.
– To prevent injury, teach your youngster the basic riding skills
on soft ground, e.g. on a meadow or in the garden. Be sure
that there is room enough to maneuver, and that no other
riders are close.
– To ensure that your youngster gets the feel of the brakes,
have your youngster operate the brakes while you push the
motorcycle. Do not start the engine before your youngster
has learned to apply both brakes with appropriate pressure.
– Now your youngster must get the feel of the throttle. Start
the engine, hold the motorcycle and have your youngster
slowly open the throttle. Then, your youngster can take
his/her first ride. Initially, your youngster should ride back
and forth between two persons who help the young rider to
stop the motorcycle. However, you should also teach your
youngster how to stop the motorcycle himself/herself.
– To improve his/her riding skills, your youngster should
practise to ride the motorcycle standing on the footpegs or
riding at the slowest possible speed. Additionally, you can
arrange a series of obstacles and have your youngster drive
around them, etc.
Tell your youngster to look 3-10 m ahead, depending on the
speed, to recognize and avoid obstacles. When riding
through curves, the rider should also look far ahead into the
curve.
– Pay attention to running-in procedure.
Running in
– Even very precisely machined sections of engine components
have rougher surfaces than components which have been
sliding across one another for quite some time. Therefore,
every engine needs to be broken in. Do not load the engine
to the power limit during the first half hour for this reason.
– Apply low but changing loads for running-in.
– NO FULL-LOAD OPERATION DURING THE FIRST HALF
HOUR!
