Refilling engine oil
Unscrew the plug
[1]
and refill engine oil. Wait 20 seconds and check the oil level again.
The quantity of oil between the MIN and MAX marks is 0.6 liter. Mount the plug and check
the engine for leaks.
– Insufficient amounts of or low-grade engine oil lead to premature wear in the engine.
– Do not overfill the engine case.
– Do not underfill the engine case.
Changing the engine oil and the oil filter, cleaning the oil screen
You may only change the engine oil yourself after the warranty period has expired. The war-
ranty will become void if you change the oil yourself during the warranty period.
NOTE: The LC8 engine has a dry-sump lubrication system. The engine oil is pumped from
the oil sump in the engine case to the oil tank. The engine oil must also be drained from
the oil tank during an oil change. Since many parts must be demounted for an oil change,
we recommend having the engine oil changed by an authorized KTM workshop.
During the guaranty period, the oil change must be performed by an authorized KTM
mechanic. Otherwise, the guarantee will become void.
The engine oil change is to be carried out when the engine is still warm.
An engine having been run warm, and the engine oil in it is very hot – do not burn yourself.
Park the motorcycle on an even surface in an upright position. Place a vessel under the
engine to catch the used oil and remove the oil drain plug [2] . Take off the cover [3] and
pull the oil sieve out of the engine case with a pair of pliers.
Remove the oil filter cover [4] and pull the oil filter out of the engine case with circlip
pliers (upside-down).
