  ENGINE

  The new 350 EXC-F engine features a design with similar dimensions to the 250 EXC-F, but delivering 450-style power. This fuel-injected powerhouse has been redesigned in order to make it more compact and lighter, while delivering better torque and power figures over the entire rev range. The new architecture with an optimized shaft configuration makes the engine 20mm shorter, which contributes to mass centralization and easier rideability of the new bike. A major benefit of the new design is the weight reduction by 1.9kg, down to a stunning 28.5kg. And that’s including the comfort of an electric starter. The power curve now reaches for the sky over the entire length of the rev range. This makes the new 350 EXC-F brilliantly suited to both amateur riders as to pros at the peak of their ability. And it’s Euro IV homologated, so it’s green and KTM orange at the same time. więcej

  CYLINDER HEAD

  The centerpiece of the compact DOHC engine is this cutting-edge cylinder head. It features two overhead camshafts with friction-optimized finger followers boasting a 30% harder DLC coating and a reworked timing drive optimized for impressive low-end torque. Four lightweight titanium valves with new valve springs and retainers and high-flow ports maximize the flow rate for an optimal power band and outstanding performance across the seemingly endless rev range of 12,000rpm. By then, you’re way past the sound barrier. Two new lateral brackets allow an efficient fixation of the engine to the frame and reduce vibrations. więcej

  CRANKSHAFT

  The 350 EXC-F’s crankshaft features a stiffer design and employs a shorter connecting rod, which makes for an overall compact and lightweight engine with a snappy power delivery. A plain big-end bearing with two force-fitted bearing shells runs directly on the crank pin. This design is a major prerequisite for the extremely high engine speeds and the unrivaled maximum power of this 350cm3 engine. Not only that, it also enhances the engine’s durability, allowing long crankshaft service intervals – a customer benefit in terms of time, effort and cost. więcej

  ELECTRIC STARTER

  The 350 EXC-F gets an electric starter as standard, which is a clear advantage when things get gnarly out there. A strong starter motor made by Mitsuba powered by a reliable lithium ion battery and a weight-reduced starter drive will fire up your all-star time and time again at the push of a button. In order to reduce weight to the minimum, there is no kick-starter. You won’t miss it. If by any chance you do, just retrofit a PowerParts replacement kit to get your kicks. więcej

• WEIGHT REDUCTION

  The main target for the KTM engineers when developing the EXC models was a massive weight reduction compared to the previous generation. The result: the current EXCs are the slimmest, lightest bikes in the Enduro scene, even though the engines are equipped with an electric starter as a standard feature, while the competition still needs to be kick-started. You can just focus on kicking ass. więcej

  FRAME

  The high-tech, lightweight chrome-moly steel frame has a knack for easy handling, outlandish rideability, precise cornering and excellent stability. You can also count on high torsional rigidity and low longitudinal stiffness. This results in better absorption of the energy created from the front and rear suspension sucking up jumps and bumps. In short: more comfort and less rider fatigue. Laterally attached, lightweight engine head stays (the connection between cylinder head and frame) contribute to a reduced vibration level. Two threaded inserts in the lower cradle tubes allow for safe fixation of an optional skid plate. The engineers were able to pull off all that, while making their frame a big fat kilogram lighter than that of the lightest competitor on the market. In addition, it is easier to maintain, easier to work on and supplies more space for the tank and other components. The bike also features an extra-light subframe made of stable aluminum profiles, which tiptoes the scales at less than 900g. więcej

  FOOTPEGS

  Sophisticated ´No Dirt´ footpegs prevent smudging up the pegs, even when digging in deep ruts. The pegs on the EXC models are 6mm higher than the ones used on SX versions, which benefits ground clearance. But you can swap them at will. więcej

• 

  SWINGARM

  This updated design allows for an optimized mounting position of the PDS (progressive damping system) shock, providing even more gradual action. Furthermore, the cast aluminum design guarantees lower weight (-220g) and perfect flex behavior. The single-component casting process also eliminates any inconsistencies and inherent weak points created by welding. And it’s better looking. więcej

• 

  AIRBOX

  The revised airbox design, incorporating new snorkels, offers maximum protection of the air filter against soiling, while ensuring maximum airflow in a quiet way. The new, large Twin Air filter is mounted in a stiff cage, which at the same time holds the system in place. This design is so simple, you could still pop a fresh one in with a face full of mud. Without tools. In seconds. więcej

• 

  FUEL TANK

  A lightweight polyethylene tank with a capacity of 8.5 liters of juice. You will always be able to see how much fuel there’s left at a glance, thanks to its see-through plastic. By pushing the orange release button in the center of the filler cap, the bayonet mechanism makes refueling a snap. The 4-stroke models are fitted with an integrated fuel pump system and an additional fuel level sensor. On the new models the fuel line features a 90° connector to the tank for better protection against damage. więcej

• 

  EXHAUST

  FIM noise limits are a real challenge for every manufacturer. Therefore, KTM has put a lot of effort into the development of their exhaust systems. All 4-strokes are fitted with new header pipes and a shorter silencer, mounted as close to the engine as possible. You know what that means: more power, extra mass centralization and better rideability. An advanced internal design reduces the noise sufficiently in order to sit safely below the FIM noise limit, while still raising the hairs on your neck. więcej

• 

  WHEELS

  The KTM wheels feature lightweight, CNC machined hubs and high-end Giant rims guaranteeing maximum stability at minimum weight. The wheels are fitted with the latest Maxxis tires. The rear tire features a reworked profile and internal structure for better grip under wet conditions and is more resilient to punctures. Take them wherever you like, traction will be waiting. więcej

  BODYWORK

  KTM R&D, Kiska Design and all our factory riders had their say in shaping the plastics. Their goal: complete harmony between rider and bike. And so it turned out. Perfect ergonomics and contact points, maximum freedom of movement, a low seat height and sweet comfort, especially in the rear part of the seat. The I-beam structures of the front and rear fenders are prime examples of such an intelligent design, guaranteeing maximum stability and a low weight thanks to well thought-out construction and mounting. Plus: they stay cleaner for longer. Or take a look at the headlight fairing. Can you spot the smart solution that makes sure your brake hose never makes nasty scratches again? więcej
