Important Information - KTM 50 SX MINI 2010 Owner's Manual

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Use definition
KTM sport motorcycles are designed and built to withstand the normal stresses and strains of competitive use. The motorcycles com-
ply with currently valid regulations and categories of the top international motorsport organizations.
Info
The motorcycle must be used only in closed off areas remote from public road traffic.
Maintenance
A prerequisite for perfect operation and prevention of wear is that the engine and chassis maintenance and adjustment work described
in the owner's manual are properly carried out. Poor adjustment and tuning of the engine and chassis can lead to damage and break-
age of components.
Using the motorcycle in difficult conditions such as on sand or very muddy or wet terrain can lead to above-average wear of compo-
nents such as the transmission train or the brakes. For this reason, it may be necessary to service or replace worn parts before the
limit specified in the service schedule is reached.
Pay careful attention to the prescribed running-in period, inspection and maintenance intervals. If you observe these exactly, you will
ensure a much longer service life for your motorcycle.
Warranty
The work prescribed in the service schedule must be carried out in an authorized KTM workshop only and confirmed in the customer's
service record, since otherwise no warranty claims will be honored. No warranty claims can be honored for damage resulting from
manipulations and/or alterations to the vehicle.
Fuel, oils, etc.
You should use the fuels, oils and greases according to specifications as listed in the owner's manual.
Spare parts, accessories
For your own safety, only use spare parts and accessory products that have been approved and/or recommended by KTM and have
them installed by an authorized KTM workshop. KTM accepts no liability for other products and any resulting damage or loss.
Certain spare parts and accessories are specified in parentheses in the descriptions. Your KTM dealer will be glad to advise you.
The current KTM PowerParts for your vehicle can be found on the KTM website.
