That is why the torque spec was increase on the bolt used when tightening the chain.
Orange - both clips are needed, one secures the other. Check rear hub free play once after rear wheel off or chain retention, thats all you should have to do.

You can't make this stuff up. USA customers are not being taking care of. Why is this? Some one on this forum reported that Ktm did indeed monitor this forum. So our we being singled out for complaining?
Is their any USA member that can confirm that Ktm has fixed there hub play issue?
