I've read and heard that there is a recall for gearbox issues and fueling. I've had the bike from new, 600 miles now. KTM haven't told me anything! Would they contact owners to notify us? Anyone had recall work done on theirs?

We don't know of any updates for fueling, but there is an update (it is not a "recall", but an update available to owners free of charge) available for the shift star and clutch springs, to ease shift action.

KTM should make an attempt to contact owners, but it's just been made available, so it should take some time to reach everyone. Regardless, your KTM dealer should know about it and be able to schedule an appointment to have the work done.

Thanks. I don't have to use the supplying dealer do I? He's about 200 miles away!! I think there is one nearer to me over Bracknell way. Thanks again for your answer.

As long as they are an authorized KTM dealer, they should be able to provide the service free of charge.
