  If your KTM Motorcycle engine doesn't start when you press the starter, here's what to check: First, ensure the ignition is on, the gear is in neutral, and the emergency OFF switch is activated. Avoid accelerating during startup. If that doesn't work, the battery might be discharged; try recharging it. Also, inspect the IGNITION fuse and replace it if it's blown. For ignition lock or emergency OFF switch issues, or problems with the safe-starting system, it's best to contact an authorized KTM workshop.

Why won't my KTM 990 ADVENTURE engine reach full power?

  jessehernandezAug 25, 2025
  If your KTM Motorcycle engine isn't reaching full power, the air or fuel filter may be heavily soiled and needs replacing at an authorized KTM workshop. There could also be an error in the injection system, which requires a visit to an authorized KTM workshop. Lastly, ensure the correct ignition curve is activated for the fuel you're using; if using fuel with at least RON 95 (USA = Premium PON 91), activate the ignition curve for 95 octane.
