– IF YOU DON’T HAPPEN TO HAVE A TORQUE WRENCH AT HAND, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE
TIGHTENING TORQUE CORRECTED BY A KTM DEALER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. A LOOSE
WHEEL SPINDLE MAY LEAD TO AN UNSTABLE DRIVING BEHAVIOR OF YOUR MOTORCYCLE.
– AFTER MOUNTING THE REAR WHEEL, KEEP OPERATING THE FOOTBRAKE UNTIL THE PRES-
SURE POINT RETURNS.
– IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO KEEP THE BRAKE DISK FREE FROM OIL AND GREASE, OTHERWISE
THE BRAKING EFFECT WOULD BE STRONGLY REDUCED.

Tires, air pressure
Tire type, tire condition, and how much air pressure the tires have in them affect the way
your motorcycle rides, and they must therefore be checked whenever you’re getting ready to
go anywhere on your motorcycle.
FOR DRIVING SAFETY AND MAXIMUM HANDLING, ONLY USE TIRES AUTHORIZED BY KTM COR-
RESPONDING TO THE „ZR“ SPEED INDEX (OVER 240 KPH). OTHER TIRES CAN HAVE A NEGATIVE
EFFECT ON THE MOTORCYCLE'S HANDLING (E.G. CAN CAUSE IT TO „WOBBLE“ AT HIGHER
SPEEDS).
