General information on KTM disk brakes
BRAKE CALIPERS:
The front brake calipers
[1]
have 4 brake pistons and are radially bolted to the fork legs.
The front brake disks are designed as "floating" brake disks, i.e. they are not firmly con-
nected to the front wheel.
The lateral balance ensures that the brake pads always have the best possible contact to the
brake disk. Apply Loctite 243 to the screws
[2]
on the brake caliper support and tighten to
45 Nm.
The rear brake caliper
[3]
has 2 brake pistons and is designed as a "floating brake caliper,
i.e. it is not firmly connected to the brake caliper support. The lateral balance ensures that
the brake pads always have the best possible contact to the brake disk.
For safety reasons, always have maintenance work and repairs to the brake system performed
by an authorized KTM workshop.
BRAKE PADS:
Your motorcycle is equipped with sintered brake pads in the front and rear and homologated
accordingly. They guarantee maximum braking performance.
Front brake pads:
Toshiba TT 2172 HH
Rear brake pads:
Toshiba TT 2701 HH
Brake pads available in the accessory trade are often not authorized for operation of your
KTM motorcycle in road traffic. The brake pads design and friction factor and therefore the
braking power can deviate significantly from original KTM brake pads. If you use different
brake pads than those provided with the original equipment, it cannot be warranted that
they are authorized for use in road traffic. Your motorcycle will not longer comply with the
regulations authorizing the use of vehicles for road traffic and the warranty will be void.
