The fork airpump is included as part of the motorcycle's
accessory pack.

The fork airpump switches on automatically.
A little air escapes from the fork leg when connecting.
Info
This is due to the volume of the hose and not due to a
defect in the fork airpump or the fork.
Read the accompanying KTM PowerParts instructions.
