Video tutorial

To change the engine oil of your KTM 1290 Super Adventure, first ensure the engine is warm to facilitate oil drainage. Lift the bike on a central or side stand for greater stability.

Locate the oil drain plug on the underside of the engine and position a container to collect the used oil underneath it. Remove the drain plug and let the used oil flow out completely. Remove the oil filter using a specific tool.

Clean the filter mounting area and lubricate the new filter with clean oil before installing it. Once the oil has stopped dripping, replace the drain plug and tighten it securely. Add new oil through the oil filler, using the oil recommended by the manufacturer and following the specifications in the owner's manual for the correct quantity.

Check the oil level with the dipstick and add oil if necessary, and you will have completed the change.
