What this means for you

Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: Rubric level 4 covers structural vehicle defects: a broken spring can drop the stand onto the road while riding and cut the ignition, which is a loss of propulsion on a motorcycle.

Plain-English summary

KTM North America, Inc. is recalling certain 2025 390 Adventure R, 390 SMC R, 390 Adventure X and 390 Enduro R motorcycles. About 2,512 units are potentially affected.

Engine vibrations may cause the side stand spring to break and the side stand to fall to the ground.
