[QUOTE="mudratsdad, post: 26999, member: 21482"] First I would like to say welcome to orange. As with any new bike, dealer set up is sometimes not as good as it should be. Check case fluid, coolant, Grease front and rear axles, swing-arm and steering head. KTM's are notorious for vibrating bolts loose, everything that you do not plan on taking apart for routine maintenance red locktite and blue the rest that way you can make sure that everything is tight and safe. Start with a good quality oil at the recommended mix start the bike on a stand and let it warm up then run the bike through the gears up and down a couple of times while still on the stand. Drain the case and fill. Then you get to ride, take it easy at first to break the bike in under load for a while and then off you go. Depending on your riding style, elevation you may have to change getting. Fork seals are expensive and have a tendency to wear and leak. Depending on your riding environment I would suggest getting a set of fork boots and under the boots on top of the seals wrap some yarn and tie this also helps to eliminate the junk from getting down and wearing the seals. ------------------ [/QUOTE]
