Tires, air pressure
Tire type, tire condition, and air pressure level affect the way your motor-
cycle rides, and they must therefore be checked whenever you are getting
ready to go anywhere on your motorcycle.
– Tire size can be found in the technical specifications and in their homolo-
gation certificate
– Tire condition has to be checked every time you want to ride your
motorcycle. Before leaving, check tires for punctures and nails or other
sharp objects that might have become embedded in them.
– Tire pressure should be checked regularly on a “cold” tire. Proper pres-
sure ensures optimum driving comfort and extends the life of your tires.

The tank vent valve

will only work properly if mounted correctly.
The arrow must point towards the tank cap.
Draining the fuel overflow reservoir
The fuel overflow reservoir
2
is screwed onto the bottom of the frame
breast tube. It should be drained after every ride.
Unscrew the overflow reservoir (turning counterclockwise) and dispose of
fuel as required by law.
Grease the rubber sealing ring
3
and mount the overflow reservoir. Tighten
by hand.
NOTE:
The overflow reservoir has the same shape as the fine filter (oil filter) in the
LC4 models but does not function as a filter. Never use the overflow reser-
voir for a KTM LC4.
Cleaning the air filter *
A dirty air filter impairs the air-flow rate, reduces the engine performance,
and increases the fuel consumption. In extreme cases, dirt may even get
into the engine and cause damage. Therefore, change the air filter in
regular intervals.
To service the air filter, remove the seat, open the hose clamp
4
and lift the
air filter from the filter box.
