Maintenance

A prerequisite for perfect operation and prevention of wear is that the engine and chassis maintenance and adjustment work described
in the owner's manual are properly carried out. Poor adjustment and tuning of the engine and chassis can lead to damage and break-
age of components.
Using the motorcycle in extreme conditions such as very muddy or wet terrain can lead to above-average wear of components such as
the transmission train or the brakes. For this reason, it may be necessary to service or replace worn parts before the limit specified in
the greasing and service table is reached.
Pay careful attention to the prescribed running-in period, inspection and maintenance intervals. If you observe these exactly, you will
ensure a much longer service life for your motorcycle.

Warranty

The maintenance work prescribed in the greasing and service table must be carried out in an authorized KTM workshop and confirmed
in the customer's service record, since otherwise no warranty claims will be recognized. No warranty claims can be considered for
damage resulting from manipulations and alterations to the motorcycle.

Fuel, oils, etc.

You should use the fuels, oils and greases according to specifications as listed in the owner's manual.

Spare parts, accessories

For your own safety, use only spare parts and accessories approved by KTM. KTM accepts no liability for other products and any re-
sulting damage or loss.
