Issues fixed under warranty

I hope they don't bend again, I changed them 3 times and going for the 4th soon.

That does not sound promising at all, hoping for the best though,

Thank you guys, I'll keep reporting but yeah, last time they even changed the break discs model, and I'm back to old issues once again. I'm not sure if it's a bike problem, something with my habits, or what. Still I'll be extra careful this time.

@Lýkos From what I've read in a KTM forum in some cases the problem weren't the disks, but the contact surfaces at the front wheel, that weren't straight.

Thats what my dealer said as well and they checked that before swapping out the old dics for new ones, else it wouldve have been a temporary solution.

Definitely sounds like the problem I'm having, I'll comment it with my dealer!
@Tom could you tell me where you found it?

@Lýkos I've read about it in a German KTM-forum.
Here the link to the complete thread; several people are reporting about the problem with the discs and also the rims; from 2020 up to now.

Hello, I also had the problem with the front brake – especially at very low speeds, the brake would judder. I had to complain to the dealer three times before it was replaced. However, the dealer also had the rim machined flat at the mounting point beforehand. I hope that this has solved the problem.
