Not all brake linings are tested and approved for KTM motorcycles. The structure and friction coefficient of the brake linings,
and thus their brake power, may vary greatly from that of original brake linings.
If brake linings are used that differ from the original equipment, compliance with the original homologation is not guaranteed.
In this case, the vehicle no longer corresponds to its condition at delivery and the warranty shall be void.
Only use brake linings approved and recommended by KTM.
