Checking spoke tension
The correct spoke tension is very important for the stability of the wheels and thus
for riding safety. A loose spoke causes the wheel to become unbalanced and
before long other spokes will have come loose. Check spoke tension, especially on
a new motorcycle, in regular intervals. For checking, tap on each spoke with the
blade of a screwdriver (see photo). A clear tone must be the result. Dull tones are
indicators of loose spokes. If necessary, have the spokes retightened and the wheel
centered by a KTM dealer.

BLE HANDLING OF YOUR MOTORCYCLE
Battery (A, CH)
1
The battery
is mounted under the seat (remove the seat, see page 15). It is a
high-quality, maintenance-free unit.
In order to avoid an oxidation at the connections, lubricate the battery terminals
with non-corrosive grease regularly.
Never open up the valves!
STORAGE:
Keep battery dry and clean. Charge battery, before storage. Best storage tempera-
ture is 0-35°C (31°F - 94°F). At 20°C (67°F) storage temperature the battery is to
be recharged after 16 months at the latest. A discharged battery must be rechar-
ged after one week at the latest.
CHARGE:
– nominal voltage: 12 volts
– maximum charging current: 0.3 amperes,
recommended charging current: 0.2 amperes
– charging time depending on degree of discharge: 4-6 hours
Fuse parking light (A, CH)
2
One can find the fuse
near the battery, under the seat. Only the parking light is
protected by this fuse. All the other electrical components are powered directly by
the generator when the engine is running.
Replace blown fuse only with equivalent one. If a new fuse that has just been set
in, blows again, contact a KTM-dealer as soon as possible.

NDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES IS A FUSE ALLOWED TO BE SET IN OR
PER TREATMENT COULD DAMAGE THE WHOLE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Fuse fan (EGS)
3
The fuse
for the fan is located behind the right radiator. With its 5 amps it is
only responsible for protecting the fan circuit. The fuse can be reached from
below.
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.
