2023 KTM 125 XC Base

2023 KTM 125 XC

Nothing beats the topend scream of a 125 cc 2-stroke machine being ridden at the minit - and the 2023 KTM 125 XC is happy to oblige. Not only has the smallest caliber bullet in the XC range been given a fuel-injected revival, but the entire motorcycle also benefits from class-leading developments at every end. Boasting more torque, more tech and most importantly, more 'Braaaap!', the KTM 125 XC is the leader in 2-Stroke cross country innovation for the modern era.

Features may include:

• Engine

Designed to churn out more torque than any 125 cc 2-Stroke engine to ever come before it, the 2023 KTM 125 XC is set to continue its dominance in its class with unrelenting forward momentum. With an overall engine weight of only 39.37 lb and impressive horsepower figures, this lightweight powerplant retains its typical high-revving character, while laying down the grunt where it matters most.

• Wheels and Tyres

These don't only look the part - they play it too! High-strength, lightweight black alloy rims by GIANT are coupled to CNC machined hubs using lightweight spokes and silver anodised aluminium nipples. The spoke nipples incorporate a revised design reducing the frequency of spoke checks and maintenance. A Dunlop GEOMAX MX-33F takes care of business at the front, with a GEOMAX AT81 completing the package.

• Neken Handlebar

All KTM XC and XC-F models are equipped with a tapered handlebar made of high-strength aluminum by NEKEN. The proprietary KTM bend delivers optimal control and unintended rider impacts are absorbed by the newly designed KTM branded bar pad, which features the same design patterns as seen on the frame protectors and tank spoilers - now that's a touch of class.

• Fuel Tank

A new 2.24 gallon polythene fuel tank incorporates a threaded filler cap and an integrated fuel pump. The fuel pump features an external fuel line which is specifically positioned to make it less exposed and susceptible to damage, while ensuring a steady, uninterrupted flow of fuel.

• Map Select Switch

Once again slicing into the 125 cc class with the leading edge of technology, the 2023 KTM 125 XC features a map select switch as standard, allowing the racer to switch between 2 perceptible engine maps.
