GENERAL TIPS AND WARNINGS FOR STARTING THE MOTORCYCLE
»
Instructions for initial operation
– Verify that your KTM dealer performed the PREPARATION OF
VEHICLE jobs (see Customer Service Manual).
– Read these operating instructions carefully before your first ride.
– Enter the chassis, engine and key numbers on page 1.
– Familiarize yourself with the operating elements.
– Adjust the hand brake lever and foot brake lever to your most
comfortable position.
– This motorcycle is equipped with 2 catalytic converters.
Leaded fuel will destroy the catalytic converters. Please use
unleaded fuel only.
– Get used to handling the motorcycle on an empty parking lot,
before starting on a longer drive. Also try to drive as slowly as
possible and in standing position, to improve your feeling for
the vehicle.
– Do not drive along off-road tracks which go beyond your abitily
and experience.
– Hold the handlebars with both hands and leave your feet on
the foot rests while driving.
– Remove your foot from the foot brake lever when you are not
braking. If the foot brake lever is not released the brake pads
rub continuously and the braking system is overheated.
– Do not make any alterations to the motorcycle and always use
ORIGINAL KTM SPARE PARTS. Spare parts from other man-
ufacturers can impair the safety of the motorcycle.
– Motorcycles are sensitive to changes in the weight distribution.
Read the section on "Accessories and payload“ when carrying
luggage.
– Pay attention to running-in procedure.
Running in the LC8 engine
Even finely machined surfaces of engine parts have rougher sur-
faces than parts that slide on each other for a long time. Therefore,
every engine must be run in. For this reason, do not demand max-
imum performance from the engine for the first 1000 kilometers
(620 miles). The vehicle must be run in at low, changing perform-
ance level for the first 1000 KM (620 miles). The maximum num-
ber of revolutions per minute must not go exceed 6500 rpm. Once
you have run your engine in for 1000 km, you may push it to its
9500 rpm limit , i.e. up to the red zone indicated in the tachome-
ter. Exceeding the above listed rotations as well as pushing high
rpm when the engine is cold will have an adverse effect on the life
of your engine.
– WEAR SUITABLE CLOTHING WHEN DRIVING A MOTORCYCLE.
CLEVER KTM DRIVERS ALWAYS WEAR A HELMET, BOOTS, GLOVES
AND A JACKET, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER DRIVING ALL DAY OR
JUST FOR A SHORT TRIP. THE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING SHOULD BE
BRIGHTLY COLORED SO THAT OTHER VEHICLE CAN SEE YOU AS
EARLY AS POSSIBLE. YOUR PASSENGER WILL ALSO NEED SUIT-
ABLE PROTECTIVE CLOTHING.
– DO NOT DRIVE AFTER HAVING CONSUMED ALCOHOL.
– ALWAYS TURN ON THE LIGHT TO MAKE SURE THAT OTHER DRIV-
ERS BECOME AWARE OF YOU AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE.
– DRIVE AT A MODERATE SPEED FOR THE FIRST FEW KILOMETERS
OF EACH TRIP TO ALLOW THE TIRES TO REACH THE NECESSARY
OPERATING TEMPERATURE. MAXIMUM ROAD GRIP IS ASSURED
WHEN THE TIRES ARE WARM.
– THE FRONT AND REAR WHEEL ARE ALLOWED TO BE FITTED ONLY
WITH TIRES THAT HAVE THE SAME PROFILE TYPE.
– THE TIRES MUST BE DESIGNED FOR A MAXIMUM SPEED OF 240
KPH (SPEED SYMBOL V) AND MUST BE AUTHORIZED BY KTM.
– DO NOT EXCEED THE RESPECTIVE MAXIMUM SPEED FOR TIRES
DESIGNED WITH A SPEED INDEX OF LESS THAN "V“ (240 KPH).
A STICKER SHOWING THE MAXIMUM SPEED MUST BE AFFIXED TO
THE MOTORCYCLE WITHIN THE DRIVER'S FIELD OF VISION.
– NEW WHEELS HAVE A SMOOTH SURFACE, WHICH MEANS THAT THEY
MUST BE RUN IN TO ACHIEVE FULL GRIP. FOR THIS PURPOSE,
RIDE THE MOTORCYCLE CAREFULLY AT MODERATE SPEED DUR-
ING THE FIRST 200 KILOMETERS WITH NEW TIRES, TILTING THE
VEHICLE AT DIFFERENT ANGLES SO THAT ALL SECTIONS ARE
PROPERLY ROUGHENED. TIRES WILL NOT DISPLAY THEIR FULL
GRIP CHARACTERISTICS UNTIL THEY ARE PROPERLY RUN IN.
– WHEELS WITH A DIFFERENT RIM DIAMETER OR OTHER RIM WIDTH
MAY NOT BE MOUNTED OTHERWISE THE VEHICLE HANDLING WILL
NO LONGER BE SAFE.
– OBSERVE THE TRAFFIC REGULATIONS, DRIVE DEFENSIVELY AND
TRYING TO LOOK AHEAD AS FAR AS POSSIBLE SO THAT ANY HAZ-
ARDS CAN BE RECOGNIZED AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE.
– CHOOSE YOUR DRIVING SPEED ACCORDING TO THE CONDITIONS
AND YOUR DRIVING SKILLS.
– DRIVE CAREFULLY ON UNKNOWN ROADS OR ON UNFAMILIAR
TRIALS.
– RENEW THE VIZOR ON YOUR HELMET OR THE GLASS OF YOUR
GOGGLES ON TIME SO AS TO ENSURE OPTIMUM VISION IN ANY
SITUATION. WHEN LIGHT SHINES DIRECTLY ON SCRATCHED VISOR
OR GOGGLES, THE OPERATOR WILL BE BLINDED.
– NEVER LEAVE YOUR MOTORCYCLE WITHOUT SUPERVISION IF THE
ENGINE IS RUNNING.
Accessories and payload
Accessory parts and baggage can significantly decrease a motor-
cycle's driving stability. Please observe the following warnings.
– NEVER DRIVE FASTER THAN 130 KPH (80 MPH) IF YOU HAVE
MOUNTED ACCESSORY PARTS ON YOUR MOTORCYCLE. ACCESSORY
PARTS CAN SIGNIFICANTLY IMPAIR THE MOTORCYCLE'S HAN-
DLING, ESPECIALLY IN THE MAXIMUM SPEED RANGE.
– NEVER DRIVE FASTER THAN 130 KPH (80 MPH) IF YOUR MOTOR-
CYCLE IS LOADED WITH CASES OR OTHER BAGGAGE. THEY WILL
IMPAIR THE MOTORCYCLE'S HANDLING AT HIGHER SPEEDS AND
CAN EASILY CAUSE IT TO GO OUT OF CONTROL
– IF YOU HAVE CASES MOUNTED, DO NOT EXCEED THE MANUFAC-
TURER'S RECOMMENDED MAXIMUM PAYLOAD.
– FASTEN THE BAGGAGE CLOSE TO THE CENTER OF THE MOTOR-
CYCLE AND DISTRIBUTE THE WEIGHT EVENLY ON THE FRONT AND
REAR WHEELS AND ON THE LEFT AND RIGHT.
– BAGGAGE MUST BE SECURELY AND ADEQUATELY FASTENEND;
LOOSE BAGGAGE WILL SIGNIFICANTLY IMPAIR DRIVING SAFETY.
– A HIGH PAYLOAD WILL CHANGE THE MOTORCYCLE'S HANDLING
AND CONSIDERABLY INCREASE THE BRAKING DISTANCE; ADAPT
YOUR DRIVING SPEED ACCORDINGLY.
– NEVER EXCEED THE MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE LADEN WEIGHT AND
THE AXLE WEIGHTS. THE MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE LADEN WEIGHT
IS MADE UP OF THE FOLLOWING COMPONENTS:
– MOTORCYCLE READY FOR OPERATION AND TANK FULL
– LUGGAGE
– DRIVER AND PASSENGER WITH PROTECTIVE CLOTHING AND HELMET
