  1-cylinder, 4-stroke engine

  KTM FREERIDE 250 F gets the latest generation of KTM’s 250 EXC-F powerhouse and complies with Euro 4 emission standards. This new, state-of-the-art 250cc DOHC 4-stroke engine is an ideal power plant for the KTM FREERIDE concept, delivering tractable performance and a nice kick. With 20.5 hp and 18 Nm of peak torque for the homologated version, this nomad can climb the steepest of slopes with ease. The unrestricted version, with 26 hp and 22.1 Nm of torque, will fly up there. In this configuration, it offers an alternative set of characteristics as well as a traction control mode, both of which can be selected with the optional map switch on the handlebar. więcej

  Clutch

  The KTM FREERIDE 250 F has newly KTM-developed DS clutch (diaphragm steel) with a wear-free steel basket, extremely heat resistant clutch plates and nitrated steel liners. This clever design employs a diaphragm spring instead of the usual coil springs, making for considerably easier clutch action. Light operation and telepathic amounts of control come as standard with this hydraulic Formula actuated clutch, featuring in addition a 1mm smaller master cylinder. więcej

  ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

  The state-of-the-art Keihin Engine Management System (EMS) with electronic fuel injection features a new 42mm throttle body. Thanks to its unique injector position, the engine’s response gives a whole new meaning to the word ‘instantaneous’, while contributing to a low fuel consumption. Separate circuits for cold-starting and idle make on-site adjustments easy. Push the throttle back when the engine is warm and the cold start mode disengages. The EMS itself boasts a faster ECU equipped with different mappings for each gear, selected according to the data received from the gear position sensor. więcej

• 

  Transmission

  The 6-speed transmission sings perfectly in tune with the power delivery of the 250cc engine and provides a precise and easy shifting action. The new KTM FREERIDE 250 F is equipped with the KTM “No Dirt” gear shift lever, preventing dirt from blocking the joint. The standard final drive ratio is 14:49, and an extra 12-tooth sprocket supplied in a separate enclosure is easily swapped in for riding in especially rough terrain. więcej

  Bodywork and graphics

  With in-mold graphics providing a rugged and lightweight solution for the latest design, the new KTM FREERIDE 250 F’s modern and ergonomical new bodywork provides lots of rider mobility with excellent contact patches, as well as narrow seat and spoiler lines. Integrating a more efficient front light, the new headlight mask hooks into a newly designed fender. Open handguards are now standard equipment. więcej

• 

  Seat

  The long, slender seat provides unrestricted freedom of movement and a very good level of seating comfort. Thanks to an integrated release mechanism, it can be tipped up easily to gain access to the fuel tank, air filter and electrics. Compared with a competition enduro, the seat height of only 915 millimetres is much more moderate. If you'd like it even lower, you can find a lowered seat (accessory) in the PowerParts range. więcej

• 

  DASHBOARD

  The KTM FREERIDE 250 F features an easy to use dashboard with a new digital speedometer from MAE and numerous features, including integrated warning and indicator lights. For model year 2018, the speedometer cable is well protected in the braided front brake hose tube, which now has an integrated channel. In addition, the bike features now an ignition lock on the right-hand side of the headlight mask next to the speedometer, guaranteeing easy access. więcej

• 

  Handlebar

  The new KTM FREERIDE 250 F is fitted with a tapered Neken handlebar made of high-strength aluminum. It has the same bend as the EXC handlebar and compared to the predecessor it is slightly wider for increased leverage. The throttle assembly features a rugged aluminum body with easy free play adjustment, allowing the throttle response to be modified using an alternative throttle cam. The throttle assembly is fitted with a vulcanized grip, while the left side of the handlebar carries a convenient and safe ODI lock-on grip. więcej

• 

  WHEELS

  The new KTM FREERIDE 250 F is equipped with lightweight wheels in 21 inches front and 18 inches on the rear, featuring CNC machined hubs and newly designed, high-end aluminum rims by Giant, anodized in black and carrying a FREERIDE logo. These wheels are practically unbeatable in terms of weight, combined with the highest levels of stability. więcej

• 

  TIRES

  The Maxxis Trialmaxx OEM tires have been developed specifically for the KTM FREERIDE range. While delivering plenty of traction, they leave much less of an impression in the ground than conventional Enduro competition tires thanks to their high land-to-sea ratio, which means they tear up the tracks less. Their high casings provide appreciably more comfort by supporting the action of the suspension. With their soft, grippy rubber compound, these tires are also great on demanding rocky terrain and when crossing roots. więcej

• 

  Brakes

  The latest Formula brake system features a radial 4-piston caliper up front and a radial 2-piston caliper in the rear, perfectly matched to their 260 and 210 mm Wave brake discs. New rear brake pads make for enhanced foot brake control while the new braided front brake hose routes the speedometer cable through an integrated channel for extra protection. więcej

• 

  Fuel tank

  Thanks to the more compact two-stroke engine compared with the four-stroke model, KTM engineers managed to design the lightweight, polyethylene fuel tank with a 7-litre capacity. It lies well protected between the upper frame profiles below the seat, which is tipped up for refuelling. Thanks to the transparent plastic, the rider can see the fuel level at a glance. więcej
