A recall notice has been issued for the 2025 and 2026 KTM 390 models – the Adventure R, Adventure X, Enduro R and SMC. Quality inspection found engine vibrations may cause the side stand spring to break. The issue is confined to forged alloy side stands and does not affect other side stand types. KTM is issuing the recall as a preventive action to eliminate any potential risk and uphold the highest standards of performance and safety, with a few cases being identified. Customers should have their side stand spring replaced and a rubber protection fitted by an authorised KTM dealer. I the case of customers currently suffering a broken side stand spring, KTM recommends securing the side stand temporarily with a rubber band or similar, and riding safely to their KTM dealer. Certain models of the KTM 390 will also have a new side stand sensor retaining plate installed during the workshop visit. This adjusts the trigger range of the side stand switch, and KTM dealers will inform customers if their specific KTM 390 requires the fix.
