General information on KTM disk brakes BRAKE CALIPERS: The front brake calipers [1] have 4 brake pistons and are radially bolted to the fork legs. The front brake disks are designed as „floating“ brake disks, i.e. they are not firmly con- nected to the front wheel. The lateral balance ensures that the brake pads always have the best possible co[...]

BRAKE FLUID: W e recommend that you use Motorex DOT 5.1 brake fluid when you refill or change the brake fluid. DOT 5. 1 brake fluid has a wet boiling point of 180°C / 356°F (25°C / 45°F higher than DOT 4) and is safer for high performance applications. Brake fluid DOT 5.1 is a poly- ethylene glycol based fluid, amber -colored and can be mixed w[...]

Adjusting the basic position of the hand brake lever The basic position of the hand brake lever can be modified by turning the adjusting screw [1] . This lets you adapt the position of the pressure point (the resistance you feel on the hand brake lever when the brake pads are pressed against the brake disk) to fit any hand. At the hand brake lever [...]

Checking the front brake pads The brake pads can be inspected from the rear . The linings must be at least 1 mm (0.04 in) thick. At their most worn point brake pad linings should not be thinner than 1 mm, otherwise they could lead to brake failure. For your own safety don’t put off having your brake pads changed. If the brake pads are replaced to[...]

Cooling system The water pump in the engine ensures a forced circulation of the cooling liquid. When the engine is cold, the cooling liquid only circulates in the cylinders and cylinder heads. The thermostat will open when the engine reaches approx. 75°C (167°F) and the cooling liquid will also be pumped through the aluminum radiator . Cooling is[...]

A mixture of 50% antifreeze and 50% distilled water is used as the cooling liquid. How- ever , the anti-freeze protection must be at least -25° C (-13° F). Aside from antifreezing pro- tection, this mixture also provides great corrosion protection which is why it must not be replaced by pure water . – For the cooling system, use only high-grade[...]

Checking the cooling liquid level in the radiator Hold the radiator cap [1] with a cloth, carefully turn in a counterclockwise direction and remove. The radiator should be completely filled with cooling liquid; no air should be in the radiator . If any cooling liquid is missing, the cooling system is probably leaking. Have the cooling system checke[...]

T o completely bleed the cooling system, the motorcycle must be raised approx. 50 cm (20 in) in the front. Add cooling liquid until it runs out of the vent holes without bubbles and immediately mount the screw to prevent air from entering the radiator . Completely fill the radiator with cooling liquid. Mount the radiator cap and move the motor- cyc[...]

Adjusting the handlebar tilt Loosen the screws [2] . Adjust the handlebar and tighten the screws to 20 Nm. Make sure the handlebar instruments do not touch the fuel tank when the handlebar is com- pletely turned.
