What is wrong

Issue:

On certain motorcycles, the rear brake hose may fail due to overheating from extreme braking. If this happens, braking can only be done using the front brake. This would reduce braking performance.

Safety Risk:

Reduced brake performance can cause extended stopping distances and increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions:

KTM will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your motorcycle to a dealer to replace the rear brake line and hardware with improved parts.

KTB21062021-12-01. Service bulletin. On affected motorcycles there is a possibility that the preload force of the return spring is too low and does not meet the specified tolerance. This could result in the brake piston not being returned to its original position which in rare cases can impair the function of the front brake. To ensure the highest level of safety, performance, reliability and customer satisfaction, it is necessary to replace the front brake master cylinder piston return spring on all affected motorcycles.

A bulletin is the manufacturer's note to its dealers. It is not part of this recall.
