2012 KTM XC Enduro Line Review
MTI is the largest and most versatile enduro line-up of the sector, and can be further strengthened in 2012. XCF four-stroke models are available in 250, 350, 450 and 500cc versions, while the KTM is still hard, two-time fans of 150, 200, 250 and 300cc XC models. And most of the engines have the ability to be combined with a wide gear ratio, to identify the logo "W".
KTM Enduro introduced in the 2012 AMA National Enduro Inyan Kara Upton, Wyoming. And when we had the opportunity to make a quick assessment of the various models we have chosen our favorite KTM enduro race in the next day. Fun? Certainly!
KTM Enduro introduced in the 2012 AMA National Enduro Inyan Kara Upton, Wyoming. And when we had the opportunity to make a quick assessment of the various models we have chosen our favorite KTM enduro race in the next day. Fun? Certainly!
All bikes have new body and hand guards stronger, a new air box design with the back of contributions promise to be more stringent than previous models. Excel used tires, wrapped in Dunlop tires. WP forks get new seals to reduce stiction and improve the performance of small impacts.
The 250cc and 300cc two-stroke XCS get a new frame and swingarm with a link non-PDS shock news. The two birds also have a redesigned intake valve to increase torque and smooth power band. The 300 will also get a new cylinder, and two bikes share a new fuel tank 2.7 liters and more reliable electric start system.
The XCFs four times received the lions share of 2012 updates, starting with a new frame, swingarm and shock linkage non-PDS with a revised interest rate. New triple clamps cast iron with 22 mm offset to improve handling properties and flexibility of the new framework. All four strokes cases new engine that is more flexible than previous offers, which means they will give a bit of influence rather than crack. The cooling system has been enhanced with integrated routing in the chassis and the new connector. The 450 and 500 also comes with electric fans.
Injection offers the most advanced 42 mm Keihin throttle body has an automatic temperature and altitude compensation.
The 250XCF receives a new engine specially adapted for traceability. The generator is now more powerful, and a new muffler and spark arrester keep the bike quiet and legally. The 350XCF get an engine Enduro and adjusted, with lower compression (13.5:1 vs. 12.3) than the version on the motocross smooth power band. He will also receive a brand new new clutch diaphragm spring with adjustable spring preload, which is shared
with the 450 and 500
Like the 250, was an improvement of 196 watts of power and fuel tank system of 2.5 liters. The new engine is supposed to weigh only 62.8 pounds 350F, including electric start, kick and exhaust flange! With improvements in the butt, the size of 350 to the revolution with the rev limiter set at 12,000 rpm. The six-speed transmission is "semi-close relationship" with no major holes to enable the seamless delivery of power. The valve train features new cam chain guide and a simple spring ratchet chain tensioner system.
The new 500XCF are large, with a new SOHC engine, crankcase casting, multi-function balance shaft, piston rod Pankl light. The engine 500 was designed to be reliable and easy to maintain, at the lowest possible weight and size.
All four-stroke engine XCF-W models are green sticker legal in California, and have forged a special equipment emissions. Closed-course racing, an authorized KTM dealers can make tuning changes.
It is the first fruits of high technology. But what are they like to ride? Before going too far, I should mention that Im 165 pounds with the horse and the area we did our preliminary tests was a combination of soils with gravel roads pretty tight and high-speed two-way. Some things were consistent across the line and excellent ergonomics, the best on the brakes and solid business, a strong impression. All bikes have tranquil escape despite the beatings of two do not come with a spark arrester and sold as "closed system" of the machines.
The two-time 250XC-W feels unusually bright and welcoming, especially if you have got used to mount a four-stroke. Gearshift and clutch worked very well, and therefore the fork. The rear suspension is decent, and the new framework was in 2012 a little better stability than previous KTM. It was fun to ride, and the power strip snappy two-time made us feel fast and reminded us how cool it is to mount a smoker.
But the feeling quickly and fast, are too different things, and at the same time, 250XC-W was pulled fast and hard, yet he did it in a much shorter interval than the four-stroke engine. You are always aware of the fat in a two-stroke expansion chamber stick to begging the wind to get drunk. But thats life in a two-stroke. A narrow path with a strong pilot flies 250XC-W, and it feels so light you just want to hop skip and search logs. But to get sloppy and youll soon be tired and watching the lazy four-stroke riders envy.
300XC-W is the most popular line of KTM Canada, and for good reason. Nothing makes an instant bottom-end torque is 300 - not even a four-stroke engine. Pull hard, too, and even power class is short compared with the drummer, relationships, feeling of lightness and 300 makes this race a very powerful bike. And perhaps the most powerful and versatile two-stroke ever built. Both two-stroke KTM prosper "repartee" in situations where their strong braking power, agility and quick bursts of acceleration out of turns to really pay off. One thing is certain, KTM two-strokes, the stone ax reliably loyal following.
The 250XCF-W was a mix for us. It feels lighter, handles better the speed of two shots, and even the suspension feels more solid and controlled. This can be attributed to a range of power and silky, which allows the entire chassis, rather than relax skitter around like a two stroke. He shoots well, but not as hard as motocross KTM 250F or 250F MXer any recently installed.
In difficult conditions, slippery 250XC-Ws would be ideal, but much faster than it has to work hard to maintain their momentum. The clutch and gearbox is excellent, which is good, because to maintain speed in the open sections, you have to drive this bike very aggressively. We loved it and would be an excellent choice for single track is slippery, but fast tracks and loose with our test area in Wyoming, which only made us work very hard.
The W-450XCF surprised us with a sense almost as agile as the W-250XCF. Its good, smooth power, it never feels heavy or intimidation, and refers to loss or called out. It was to inspire confidence in the unit, but the rear suspension feels a bit under damped compared to the lighter, slower 250XCF-W. Like the rest of the KTM 2012, the WP fork is excellent. We really liked this bike, and was the favorite bike until the time of day.
The 500XCF-W was a big improvement from the 530 old. It feels smaller and lighter than its predecessor, with a strong partner that makes it easy to get on the open sections or in the forest. This bike would play murderer! But not as a race bike that feels a bit bulky in the forest, and the rear suspension feels too soft for the speeds that this bike is capable. We love walking all day, but the race? Perhaps if there had been six inches taller and gained 40 pounds. 500XCF-W The bike was just too much for this little old writer.
We were able to drive all the cross-country running a "W" wide-ratio transmission models with the exception 150XC and 200XC-W, the impression that will have to wait until late.
This leaves us with ...
KTM 350XCF-W. We read all 350 We have heard people say it was a slow, 450, 250F, or a charlatan. Well, its sort of both things. And physically lighter than 450 pounds, just a few. We rode a little trick 250F motocross bike, you can escape. The suspension is an excellent front and rear on average. It just does not sound like a winning combination, but trust us, that is the real world.
All new KTM drove to Wyoming, 350 is the one that we wanted our garage. It has become the benchmark for all other KTM at our disposal, and we ended up begging for the KTM race, gives us the next day. But thats another story, so stay tuned for the entire 2012-W KTM 350XCF test run!

KTM PRESS RELEASE
PERFECTLY POSITIONED: THE KTM OFFROAD MODEL YEAR 2011
KTM’s Mattighofen factory in Austria has invested a huge amount of effort in developing the latest Offroad motorcycles for the 2010 season with the clear aim of improving the advantage on loose ground even more. Star of the KTM model range is the revolutionary MX1 innovation, the 350 SX-F.
The current motorsport season is well underway and the KTM factory riders have already claimed a slew of podiums on the latest “Made in Austria“ Offroaders. Now the sports brand from Austria presents the line-up of brand new motorcycles for the Model Year 2011.
With three high quality and competitive Minicycle variants for the youngest offroad enthusiasts, a total of six uncompromising Motocross motorcycles especially designed for winning races as well as eight versions of Sport Enduros, the Austrian manufacturer presents the perfect line-up for the coming season. In doing so, KTM once again underlines its leading role in the world of Offroad sports activity.
The huge amount of depth of development in the new Offroad model range extends all the way from the 50 cc two-stroke (50 SX) right up to the powerful displacement of the Enduro 530 EXC-R. In between there is a whole range of tailor-made sports machines for every type of offroad riding and for every rider profile, all absolutely true to the KTM “Ready to Race” philosophy. KTM has just the right machine, regardless of whether it’s for the ambitious hobby rider or the ruling world champion.
As well as the huge development effort that the KTM technicians have applied to the entire model range, these new motorcycles still include some very special innovations. This especially applies to the 350 SX-F, which was first exhibited last autumn. This, the first ever 350 cc bike deployed in the MX1 World Championship, has already been mastered by factory riders Antonio “Tony” Cairoli and his Red Bull KTM teammate Rui Goncalves. Cairoli not only won the premiere race for the 350 machine; after his GP victories, he is also leading the championship standings.
In addition to the unique engine concept, the MX lineup for the 2011 also includes a newly developed frame and chassis components.
The Enduro models, which have been similarly decorated with world championship titles all also profit from the massive amount of experience gathered by not less than 176 World Championship titles. This can be seen both in the feather light two-stroke versions as well as the highly modern and performance powerful four-stroke models. With significant improvements in a while range of areas as well as the extensive series equipment, these machines are prepared in the best possible way for the new racing season.
The new Motocross, Enduro and Minicycle models will be delivered to KTM dealers from June of this year.

2013 KTM 1290 Super Duke R Review
KTM promises to "provide a vital and attractive to the exciting future of the Super Duke." If that means moving his villainous streetfighting 1290 Holiday Duke R into production, the future KTM is interesting indeed.After much speculation, is now finally confirmed that KTM is in the process of making 1290 Holiday Duke R at EICMA show in Milan. And while fans of the marque Austria are craving a detailed spec sheet highest powered KTM Duke Holiday to date, facts about naked bike is still ambiguous at best.
What is known is that Duke R 1290 Holiday will be powered by a bored-out version of the V-Twin is installed on RC8R Superbike, the latest 1195cc liquid-cooled, eight-valve V-Twin.
