Applying the brakes

Warning
Danger of accidents Reduced braking efficiency due to a wet or dirty brake system.
–
Clean or dry a dirty or wet brake system by riding and braking gently.
Warning
Danger of accidents Reduced braking efficiency caused by spongy pressure point of front or rear brake.
–
Check the brake system and do not continue riding. (Your authorized KTM workshop will be glad to help.)
Warning
Danger of accidents Failure of brake system.
–
If the foot brake lever is not released, the brake linings drag continuously. The rear brake may fail due to overheating. Take your
foot off the foot brake lever when you are not braking.
The MSR is an optional auxiliary function of the engine control.
If the engine braking effect is too great, the MSR prevents the rear wheel from locking or
sliding away on a sloping position.
To avoid slip of the rear wheel, the MSR only opens the throttle valve as far as absolutely
necessary.
The MSR is applied on surfaces, where the friction is to low to open the anti‑hopping
clutch.
To further increase ride safety, the MSR is slope dependent.
