9 RIDING INSTRUCTIONS 76
– After reaching maximum speed by fully opening the throttle grip, turn the throttle back
so it is ¾ open. This will barely reduce the speed but fuel consumption will be consid-
erably lower.
– Accelerate only up to a speed suitable for the road surface and weather conditions. Par-
ticularly in bends, do not shift, and accelerate very carefully.
– Brake if necessary and close the throttle at the same time in order to shift down.
– Pull the clutch lever and shift into a lower gear, release the clutch lever slowly, and
open the throttle or shift again.
– If the engine stalls (e.g. at a crossroads), just pull the clutch lever and press the elec-
tric starter button. You do not have to shift into neutral.
– If the oil pressure warning lamp
lights up during a trip, stop immediately and switch
off the engine. Contact an authorized KTM workshop.
– If the malfunction indicator lamp
lights up during a trip, please contact an autho-
rized KTM workshop as soon as possible.
– If the general warning lamp lights up during a trip, an operating safety (warning)
message was detected.
