    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 wheel spindle can cause the motorcycle's handling performance to become instable and cause it to crash.
  • Page 41: Chain Maintenance

    – The chain does not have a chain joint for safety reasons. Always have the chain replaced in an authorized KTM workshop where the service technicans have the required riveting tool. – Never mount a normal chain joint.
  • Page 42: General Information On Ktm Disk Brakes

    Brake pads available in the accessory trade are often not authorized for operation of your KTM motorcycle in road traffic. The brake pads design and friction factor and therefore the braking power can deviate significantly from original KTM brake pads. If you use different brake pads than those provided with the original equipment, it cannot be warranted that they are authorized for use in road traffic.

    34 psi 37 psi – Do not mount tires which have not been approved by KTM. Other tires could have adverse effects on the way your motorcycle rides. – Use tires of the same brand and type for the front and rear wheels.
  • Page 52: Battery

    » MAINTENANCE WORK ON CHASSIS AND ENGINE Battery The battery is located under the seat and is maintenance-free. Maintenance-free means you will not need to check the acid level. Clean the battery termi- nals regularly and grease with acid-free grease if necessary. The charge condition and type of charge are very important for the battery's service life.
  • Page 53: Charging The Battery

    To charge the battery while mounted, always use the KTM battery charger (Item no. 58429074000) to ensure that the electric system is not damaged by excess voltage. Always remove the battery if using other battery chargers! You can also use this charging device to test the off-load voltage and startability of the battery and generator.
  • Page 54: Main Fuse

    If a new fuse that has just been set in gets blown again, you are strongly advised to have it inspected by a KTM dealer. The fuse capacity is 30 Ampere. – Under no circumstances is a stronger fuse allowed to be set in or a fuse allowed to be „repaired“.
  • Page 55: Fuses For Individual Power Consumers

    Replace a blown fuse only with an equivalent one. If a new fuse that has just been set in gets blown again, you are strongly advised to have it inspected by a KTM dealer. Under no circumstances is a stronger fuse allowed to be set in or a fuse allowed to be “repaired”.

  • Page 59: Cooling System

    If the fan is not working, and there appears to be sufficient cool- ing liquid, the only thing you can do is to drive on to your nearest authorized KTM work- shop at the least possible engine load.
  • Page 60 » MAINTENANCE WORK ON CHASSIS AND ENGINE A mixture of 50% antifreeze and 50% distilled water is used as the cooling liquid. How- ever, the anti-freeze protection must be at least -25° C (-13° F). Aside from antifreezing pro- tection, this mixture also provides great corrosion protection which is why it must not be replaced by pure water.
  • Page 61 If you need to add cooling liquid quite often, the cooling system may leak. If the compen- sating tank is empty, also check the cooling liquid level in the radiator. Have the cooling system checked by an authorized KTM workshop. Checking the cooling liquid level in the compensating tank (950 Supermoto R) Check the level of the cooling liquid when the engine is cold.
  • Page 62: Checking The Cooling Liquid Level In The Radiator

    – Only continue to drive if there is enough cooling liquid in the system. Contact an author- ized KTM workshop to have the error eliminated. You will damage the engine if you con- tinue to drive when the cooling liquid temperature warning lamp is on.
  • Page 63: Bleeding The Cooling System (950 Supermoto)
