Vehicle report
Technical service bulletins are instructions a manufacturer sent its dealers about a known fault. They are not recalls and the work is usually not free, but they are the clearest signal of a problem the manufacturer already knows about.

During the course of quality controls, KTM North America, Inc. has found that on select 2017 1090 ADVENTURE R models there is a possibility that the tail light could have a lower current draw than required. This could cause a tail light failure message to appear on the instrument cluster. To aid in preventing this failure message, replacement of the tail light is necessary.
TB1802
Due to market feedback, KTM North America, Inc. has found that on the select models listed above there is a possibility that the fuel filters and/or fuel pump motor could cause a lower than recommended fuel pressure which could decrease the performance of the engine. To aid in preventing a fuel pressure decrease, a replacement kit for the fuel pump has been specially developed consisting of new seals, gaskets, filters and pump motor to stabilize and maintain recommended operating fuel pressure.
Complaint counts are reports filed with NHTSA, not failure rates. A common model collects more of them than a rare one that breaks more often.
