Conservation For Winter Operation - KTM 950 SUPERMOTO R Owner's Manual

CONSERVATION FOR WINTER OPERATION

In the event that the motorcycle is also used in winter and on roads where one has to expect salt spraying, you will have to take
precautions against the aggressive road salt.
– clean motorcycle thoroughly and let it dry
– treat engine, carburetor, swing arm, and all other bare parts (except for brake discs) with a wax-based anti-corrosion agent.
Keep anti-corrosion agent from getting into contact with the brake discs, for otherwise this will significantly reduce the braking power.
After rides on salted roads, clean motorcycle thoroughly with cold water and let it dry well!
