The ABS is a safety system that prevents locking of the wheels when driving straight ahead
without the influence of lateral forces.
The MSC (Motorcycle Stability Control) is a supplementary function for the ABS that can
prevent blocking and slipping of the wheels during braking when the vehicle is inclined
(riding in curves) within the physical limitations.

The rear wheel may only be spun with the front brake applied (burn out) if the
ABS is switched off.
If the vehicle has been modified, such as shortened or lengthened spring deflec-
tions, different rim diameters, different tires, the wrong tire air pressure, differ-
ent brake linings, etc., the ABS will not function optimally. Optimal function-
ing of the ABS is only ensured if the brake system only contains spare parts and
tires that have been approved and/or recommended by KTM.
Service work and repairs must be performed properly. (Your authorized KTM
workshop will be glad to help.)
