Service bulletin TB2012

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

For the 2019 and 2020 790 ADVENTURE and 790 ADVENTURE R models, KTM has enabled the ability to purchase and install the Quickshifter+ technical accessory software extension again using only the XC_2 diagnostic tool. On certain 2020 790 ADVENTURE R RALLY models, it is possible that the Cruise Control and the Quickshifter+ features are not activated as delivered from production. Please do not purchase the Cruise Control and do not purchase the Quickshifter+ for this model as the software purchases are not refundable. It is necessary to activate these two features during PDI and before customer delivery. This can be done by using the XC_2 diagnostic tool in the Technical Accessories menu, select the software icon, click Update, click Activate.
