• Page 6: Serial Number Locations

  SERIAL NUMBER LOCATIONS OPERATION INSTRUMENTS » Chassis number The chassis number is stamped on the right side of the steering head tube. Enter this number in the field on page no 1. Engine number, engine type The engine number and the engine type are stamped into the left side of the engine below the engine sprocket.

• Page 7: Short Circuit Button

  OPERATION INSTRUMENTS » Short circuit button (SX) The short circuit button [1] turns off the engine. When pressing this button, the ignition circuit is short-circuited. Filler cap To open it: turn filler cap counter-clockwise. To close it: put filler cap back on and tighten it by turning it clockwise. Install tank breather hose [2] without kinks.

  » OPERATION INSTRUMENTS Shift lever The shift lever is mounted on the left side of the engine. The position of the gears is shown in the illustration. Neutral, or the idle speed, is located between first and second gear. 2,3,4,5, (6) Kickstarter The kickstarter is mounted on the left side of the engine.

  Severe injuries could be the result. Never unscrew the black screw [5] connection (15mm). – Wear suitable clothing when driving a motorcycle. smart KTM drivers always wear a helmet, boots, gloves, and a jacket, regardless of whether driving all day or just go for a short ride.

• Page 11: Driving Instructions

  Arrange for the braking system to be checked by an author- ized KTM dealer, as complete failure of the braking system can be expected. Also check the state of the brake hose and the thickness of the brake linings.

• Page 12: Starting When The Engine Is Warm

  Always pro- vide adequate ventilation while the engine is running. Do not ride your motorcycle with full load and do not rev up the engine when cold. Since the piston warms up and expands faster than the water cooled cylinder, this might cause engine damage.

• Page 13: Shifting/Riding

  – In the event that, while riding on your motorcycle, you notice any unusual operation-related noise, stop immediately, turn the engine off, and contact an authorized KTM dealer. Braking Turn off the gas and apply the hand and foot brakes at the same time.

  OFF position — if the motorcycle should fall over, no fuel can leak from the carburetor or fuel tank – Only use special screws with an appropriate thread length supplied by KTM to fix the spoilers on the tank. Using other screws or longer screws can cause leaks in the tank through which fuel can flow out.

• Page 18: Checking The Basic Setup Of The Telescopic Fork

  The type number of the telescopic fork is embossed on the inside of the fork leg axle passage. If you are uncertain which spring to use, contact your KTM workshop. According to our experience, the damping rate of the compression stage can remain unchanged.

• Page 19: Changing The Fork Offset (Caster) (Xc)

  » MAINTENANCE WORK ON CHASSIS AND ENGINE Changing the fork offset (caster The fork offset [A] in the SX models (center fork legs — center steering head angle) can be set to either 18 or 20 mm. This allows you to optimize the han- dling to match the race course.

• Page 20: Checking And Adjusting The Steering Head Bearing

  MAINTENANCE WORK ON CHASSIS AND ENGINE » Mount the lower triple clamp, upper steering head bearing, protection ring, O-ring, upper triple clamp and the blind screw. Tighten the collar screw on the lower triple clamp to 60 Nm. Mount the fork legs and tighten the clamp screws on the lower triple clamp to 12 Nm in 3 stages.

• Page 21: Check Chain Tension

  The screws [4] must be secured with loctite 243. Check chain tension Jack the motorcycle up on its frame so that the rear wheel no longer touches the ground. Press the chain upward at the end of the chain sliding component. The dis- tance between the chain and the swing arm should be approx.

• Page 22: Correct Chain Tension

  – 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 axle may lead to an unstable driving behavior of your motorcycle.

• Page 23: General Information About Ktm Disc Brakes

  Have the brake disk replaced as soon as it reaches the service limit. – Have any repairs on the brake system be performed by a KTM dealer. BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIRS: The brake fluid reservoirs on the front and rear wheel brakes have been designed in such a way that even if the brake pads are worn it is not neces- sary to top up the brake fluid.

• Page 24: Adjusting The Free Travel At The Hand Brake Lever

  If the brake fluid level drops below the minimum either the brake system has a leak or the brake pads are completely worn. In this case, consult an author- ized KTM dealer immediately. Refilling the front brake fluid reservoir * Loosen screws [2] and remove lid [3] and membrane [4].

• Page 25: Replacing The Front Brake Pads

  If the brake fluid level drops below the minimum either the brake system has a leak or the brake pads are completely worn. In this case, consult an author- ized KTM dealer immediately. Refilling the rear brake fluid reservoir * Add brake fluid as soon as a bubble is visible in inspection glass [A].

• Page 26: Checking The Rear Brake Pads

  Dismounting and mounting the front wheel To remove the front wheel, jack the motorcycle up on its frame so that the front wheel no longer touches the ground.

• Page 27: Dismounting And Mounting The Rear Wheel

  – 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 axle may lead to an unstable driving behavior of your motorcycle.

• Page 28: Tires, Air Pressure

  – Tire pressure should be checked regularly on a “cold” tire. Proper pres- sure ensures optimum driving comfort and extends the life of your tires. – Do not mount tires which have not been approved by KTM. Other tires could have adverse effects on the way your motorcycle behaves.

• Page 29: Cooling System

  MAINTENANCE WORK ON CHASSIS AND ENGINE 10 mm when engine ist cold Cooling system The water pump [1] in the engine circulates the cooling liquid. The cooling liquid is cooled by the air stream. This means that the cooling effect decreases with the traveling speed.

• Page 30: Cleaning The Air Filter

  [2] and filter support [3] from the filter box. – Do not clean foam filter with fuel or petroleum since these damage the foam. KTM recommends the products of the company Motorex for air fil- ter maintenance (Bio Dirt Remover and Liquid Bio Power).

• Page 31: Changing The Original Position Of The Clutch Lever

  If necessary, add SAE 10 biodegradable hydraulic oil (Motorex clutch fluid 75), available from your authorized KTM shop. KTM uses biodegradable, hydraulic mineral oil to actuate the hydraulic clutch in 125/200 models. Do not mix this oil with any other hydraulic oil. Always use original KTM hydraulic oil (available from your authorized KTM workshop) to make sure your clutch operates smoothly.

Remove oil drain plugs [3] and [4] and drain the used oil into an appropriate container. Clean the magnets of the oil drain plugs and mount them together with the appropriate gaskets.

• Page 36: Cleaning

  – After the motorcycle has been rinsed with a soft water jet, it should be dried by air pressure and a cloth. Then take a short drive until the engine has reached the working temperature and also use the brakes. By warming these components, the residual water can evaporate from inaccessable parts of the engine and the brakes.
