Primodious

Hi and welcome to the forum The workshop manual is not generally available, however if you send me a PM I can get a copy to you. There is no fuel tap or anything as such ‘to do’ on the Vertigo’s, you just need to kick it over and assuming it has fuel, it should start. That said there is a knack to starting them. For me I give it a couple of slow kicks with the throttle at about 75% open. After that I kick it over as normal, usually with just a fraction of throttle. I also found I needed to change my method of using the kickstart slightly: I stand with my hips quite close to the bars and then kick more towards the back of the bike than downwards, as you normally would. I also aim to try and push through the compression stroke quickly and in one movement, rather than finding compression and then kicking it down through that. Hope the above helps and enjoy your new bike ?

As has been said the filter is the same as the KTM one. Mine also was black when I replaced it. Here's a picture of mine assembled with the new filter ready to go back in the tank, that should give you an idea of how to go about changing it.

@syspig They certainly don’t make it easy to get hold of the workshop manual, that’s for sure! If you PM me with your email address I can send you a digital copy. As far as I am aware the software kit is only available to official dealers, which I can imagine is a pain if you are 5 hours away from a dealer. I’m fortunate in that I’m currently living only 20mins from a dealer. Having the FI setup by someone knowledgeable made a huge difference to my bike. The dealer said the system on the newer bikes allows even more precise setup of the carburation. If you are looking for setup information on the GET ECU then there is a 15min video here, maybe you've already seen it? It’s not a Vertigo but it should be the same process https://slavensracing.com/how-to-tune-your-get-ecu-equipped-dirt-bike/

Yes there is a 174 page service/workshop manual for the Vertigo. There is a dealer kit software for the ECU which includes an interface for the ECU and 3 different bits of software which are tied in to a USB dongle with a dealer license that they have to renew yearly. All the electronics, FI etc can be diagnosed/tested and calibrated through this software.

No you can't remove the side frame individually. The left and right side are all one unit which make up the rear frame. It is part number 8 in the attached picture. Hope this helps.
