such problems and conflicts. You can contribute to securing the future of motorcycling by making sure
that you and your youngsters only use the motorcycle within the limits established by the applicable laws,
making environmental protection one of your top priorities and never violating other people’s rights.

IMPORTANT WARRANTY AND GUARANTEE INFORMATION
»
KTM mini-sports motorcycles are designed and constructed to resist the usual wear and tear of normal
use in competitions.
The motorcycles comply with the regulations and categories currently in effect with the leading interna-
tional motorcycle associations.
Observance of the service, maintenance and tuning instructions for the engine and chassis specified in
the Owner's Manual is a prerequisite for faultless operation and the avoidance of premature wear. An
improperly tuned chassis can lead to damage and breakage of the chassis components (see chapter on
checking the basic chassis setting).
The service work specified in the "Lubrication and Maintenance Schedule" must be performed by a KTM
workshop and recorded in the service manual otherwise claims under the warranty shall become void.
The fuels and lubricants specified in the Owner's Manual or automotive fluids with equivalent specifica-
tions must be used in accordance with the maintenance schedule.
No claims can be filed under the warranty for damage or consequential damage caused by manipulations
or conversions to the motorcycle.
The use of the motorcycle under extreme conditions, e.g. on extremely muddy and wet terrain, can lead
to higher than average wear on components such as the drive train or the brakes. In this case it may
become necessary to service or replace wear parts before the service limit specified in the maintenance
schedule has been reached.
In accordance with the international quality management ISO 9001 standard, KTM uses

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR PARENTS ABOUT SAFE DRIVING

The 85 SX mini motorcycles are off-road motorcycles designed for one person only. They are not allowed on
public roads.
The vehicle dimensions and components are designed for children from 10 to 15 years of age with a
maximum weight of 75 kg (33,98 lb).
Have your youngster wear proper protective gear whenever he or she rides the motorcycle: helmet, eye
protection, chest, back, arm and leg protectors, gloves and boots. To set a good example, be sure to
wear protective gear yourself whenever riding a motorcycle!
Before your youngster takes his or her first ride, explain how each of the controls works and check if
your youngster has understood what you explained. We recommend to review the entire owner’s manual
with your youngster item by item, paying particular attention to the specially marked warnings and
pointing out the danger of injury.
Instruct your youngster about riding and falling techniques, explain how the motorcycle will respond
to shifting of the rider’s weight, etc.
Before starting the motorcycle for the first time check whether the basic fork and shock absorber
settings are suitable for your child's weight (see chapter on checking the basic chassis setting)
Before using the motorcycle you should always check all components for proper operation (see mai-
nenance schedule). Have your youngster perform these technical checks himself / herself as well.
Whenever you go for a ride with your youngster, keep in mind that the speed should be adjusted to
your youngster and not the other way around.
Your youngster must understand that all instructions he or she receives from you or any other super-
vising adult must be followed.
Your child must be physically ready to ride a motorcycle. This means that he or she must at least be
able to ride a bicycle. Being good at sports that require fast reactions is an additional advantage. Your
youngster should be strong enough to pick up the motorcycle after a fall.
Never demand too much of your youngster. Give him or her time to get used to the motorcycle and to
improve his / her riding skills. Do not even consider letting your youngster participate in a race before
his / her physical condition, riding skills and motivation have sufficiently developed.
Explain to your youngster that he / she should always adjust his / her riding speed to the local condi-
tions as well as to his / her own riding skills and that excessive speed can cause falls and severe inju-
ries. Always keep in mind that youngsters tend to underestimate dangers or fail to recognize them
altogether. The riding speed must be reduced, in particular, on unknown terrain.
Never let your youngster ride the motorcycle without supervision. An adult should always be present.
The motorcycle is designed for one rider only. Your youngster is not allowed to transport a passenger.
When you go for a ride, somebody at home should always know where you are going and when you
will be back. This makes it easier to send you help, should problems occur.
