DRIVING INSTRUCTIONS
»
What you should check before each start
When you start off, the motorcycle must be in a perfect technical condition.
For safety reasons, you should make it a habit to perform an overall check of
your motorcycle before each start.
The following checks should be performed:
1 CHECK TRANSMISSION OIL LEVEL.
A lack of gear oil leads to premature wear and finally results in destruc-
tion of the gear wheels.
2 FUEL
Check that there is sufficient fuel in the tank; when closing the filler cap,
check that the tank venting hose is free of kinks.
3 CHAIN
A loose chain was fall off the chain wheels; an extremely worn chain may
tear, and insufficient lubrication may result in unnecessary wear of the
chain and chain wheels.
4 TIRES
Check for damaged tires. Tires showing cuts or dents must be replaced.
Also check the air pressure. Insufficient tread and incorrect air pressure
deteriorate the driving performance.
5 BRAKES
Check the correct functioning of the braking system. Verify that there is
sufficient brake fluid in the reservoir. The reservoirs have been designed
in such a way that brake fluid does not need to be refilled even when the
brake pads are worn. If the level of brake fluid falls below the minimum
value, this indicates a leak in the braking system or completely worn out
brake pads. Always have the brake system checked by a KTM workshop
to avoid brake failure.
Also check the state of the brake hose and the thickness of the brake
linings.
Check free travel at the hand brake lever and foot brake lever.
IF THE RESISTANCE IN THE HAND BRAKE LEVER FEELS „SPONGY“ (TOO MUCH
PLAY), THIS IS AN INDICATION THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE BRAKE
SYSTEM. DON’T LET YOUR CHILD RIDE THE MOTORCYCLE ANYMORE WITHOUT
FIRST HAVING THE BRAKE SYSTEM LOOKED OVER BY A KTM DEALER.
6 CABLES
Check correct setting and easy running of all control cables.
7 COOLING FLUID
Check the level of cooling fluid when the engine is cold.
