2.13 Work rules
Special tools are necessary for certain tasks. The tools are not a component of the vehicle, but can be ordered
using the number in parentheses. Example: bearing puller (15112017000)
During assembly, use new parts to replace parts which cannot be reused (e.g. self-locking screws and nuts, seals,
sealing rings, O-rings, pins, and lock washers).
In the case of certain screws, a thread locker (e.g. Loctite®) is required. Apply according to the manufacturer's
instructions.
After disassembly, clean the parts that are to be reused and check them for damage and wear. Change damaged
or worn parts.
After completing a repair or service work, check the operating safety of the vehicle.
2.14 Environment
If you use your motorcycle responsibly, you can ensure that problems and conflicts do not occur. To protect the
future of the motorcycle sport, make sure that you use your motorcycle legally, display environmental conscious-
ness, and respect the rights of others.
When disposing of used oil, other operating and auxiliary fluids, and used components, comply with the laws and
regulations of the respective country.
Because motorcycles are not subject to the EU regulations governing the disposal of used vehicles, there are no
legal regulations that pertain to the disposal of an end-of-life motorcycle. Your authorized KTM dealer will be glad
to advise you.

3.4 Service
A prerequisite for perfect operation and prevention of premature wear is that the service, care, and tuning work
on the engine and chassis is properly carried out as described in the Owner's Manual. Incorrect adjustment and
tuning of the engine and chassis can lead to damage and breakage of components.
Use of the vehicle under difficult conditions, such in rain, high heat or with a heavy load, can lead to consider-
ably more rapid wear of components such as the drive train, brake system, or suspension components. For this
reason, it may be necessary to inspect or replace parts before the next scheduled service.
It is imperative that you adhere to the stipulated run-in times and service intervals. If you observe these exactly,
you will ensure a much longer service life for your motorcycle.
3.5 Figures
The figures contained in the manual may depict special equipment.
In the interest of clarity, some components may be shown disassembled or may not be shown at all. It is not
always necessary to disassemble the component to perform the activity in question. Please follow the instructions
in the text.
3.6 Customer service
Your authorized KTM dealer will be happy to answer any questions you may have on your vehicle and KTM.

The ABS effectiveness is only ensured if it is switched on.
– Leave the ABS switched on in order to benefit from the protective effect.
– When braking, release the throttle and apply the front and rear brakes at the same time.
Info
When the ABS is enabled, maximum braking power can be achieved even with low road grip surfaces
such as sandy, wet, or slippery terrain without locking the wheels.
Warning
Danger of accidents The rear wheel can lock due to the engine braking effect.
– Pull in the clutch, if you perform emergency or full braking, or if you brake on a slippery ground.
Warning
Danger of accidents Banked or laterally sloping ground reduces the maximum possible delay.
– If possible finish braking before going into a bend.
– Always finish braking before you go into a bend. Shift down to a lower gear appropriate to your speed.
– Use the braking effect of the engine on long downhill stretches. Shift back one or two gears, but do not over-
rev the engine when doing so. This means that significantly less braking is required and the brake system
does not overheat.

13.1 Antilock brake system (ABS)
H01908-10
ABS unit , which consists of a hydraulic unit, ABS control
unit, and return pump, is installed under the fuel tank. One wheel
speed sensor is located in each case on the front and the rear
wheel.
Warning
Danger of accidents Changes to the vehicle impair the
function of the ABS.
– Only allow the rear wheel to spin with the front brake
applied away from public road traffic if the ABS is
switched off.
– Do not make any changes to the suspension travel.
– Only use spare parts on the brake system which have
been approved and recommended by KTM.
– Only use tires/wheels approved by KTM with the corre-
sponding speed index.
– Maintain the specified tire air pressure.
– Service work and repairs must be performed profes-
sionally. (Your authorized KTM workshop will be glad
to help.)
The ABS is a safety system that prevents locking of the wheels
when driving straight ahead without the influence of lateral forces.
13 BRAKE SYSTEM
140
Warning
Danger of accidents Driving aids can only prevent a
rollover within the physical limitations.
It is not always possible to compensate for extreme riding
situations, for example with luggage loaded with a high
center of gravity, varying road surfaces, steep descents or
full braking without disengaging the gear.
– Adapt your riding style to the road conditions and your
driving ability.
The ABS operates with two independent brake circuits (front and
rear brakes). During normal operation, the brake system operates
like a conventional brake system without ABS. When the ABS con-
trol unit detects a locking tendency in a wheel, ABS begins reg-
ulating the brake pressure. The control function causes a slight
pulsing of the hand and foot brake levers.
The ABS indicator lamp 3must light up after the ignition is
switched on and go out after starting off. If it does not go out after
starting off or if it lights up while riding, this indicates a fault in
the ABS system. In this case, the ABS is no longer enabled and
the wheels may lock during braking. The brake system itself stays
functional; only ABS control is not available.
The ABS indicator lamp may also light up if the rotating speeds of
the front and rear wheels differ greatly under extreme riding con-
BRAKE SYSTEM 13
141
ditions, for example when making "wheelies" or if the rear wheel
spins. This causes the ABS to switch off.
To reactivate the ABS, stop the vehicle and switch off the ignition.
The ABS is reactivated when the vehicle is switched on again. The
ABS indicator lamp goes out when you start off.
13.2 Adjusting the basic position of the hand brake lever
F00784-13
– Adjust the basic position of the hand brake lever to your hand
size by turning adjusting wheel .
Info
Push the hand brake lever forward and turn the adjust-
ing wheel.
Do not make any adjustments while riding.
13.3 Checking the brake discs
Warning
Danger of accidents Worn-out brake discs reduce the braking effect.
– Make sure that worn-out brake discs are replaced immediately. (Your authorized KTM workshop will
be glad to help.)
BRAKE SYSTEM 13
143
13.4 Checking the brake fluid level of the front brake
Warning
Danger of accidents An insufficient brake fluid level will cause the brake system to fail.
If the brake fluid level drops below the marking, the brake system is leaking or the brake linings areMIN
worn down.
– Check the brake system and do not continue riding until the problem is eliminated. (Your authorized
KTM workshop will be glad to help.)
Warning
Danger of accidents Old brake fluid reduces the braking effect.
