Dismounting and remounting the front wheel *

Special stands are required to dismount the wheels to make sure the motorcycle is securely

fixed. The front stand only adequately fixes the motorcycle together with the rear stand. The

stands shown in the illustration can be found in the KTM Power Parts catalog.

First mount the rear, then the front stand. Make sure the stands rest on solid ground and

are correctly mounted. The front wheel should not touch the ground.
