The 2023 KTM 250 SX-F continues its assault on the highly-competitive 250 cc class. Featuring a truly user-friendly package engineered to satisfy all riders, from novice to pro, it continues the trend of being undisputedly READY TO RACE at any level. Delivering a knock-out power-punch, more stability in a straight line, and with more electronic upper cuts in the bag, the 2023 KTM 250 SX-F is ready to take on the 250 cc class and dominate it.
Features may include:
Get dialed in! The 2023 KTM SX range boasts totally tool-free suspension setup at both ends. Thanks to an all-new shock absorber design featuring hand-adjustable dual compression control, it allows riders to adjust high- and low-speed settings in a matter of seconds. On the front end, the forks are also easily adjusted thanks to a single air pressure preload valve, as well as through easy access click adjusters for compression and rebound. We'll even throw the air pump in as standard.
Weighing in at a lightweight 57.5 lb, this mid-weight powerhouse churns out a remarkable payload of explosive horsepower, making it the undisputed performance leader in the 250 cc 4-stroke class. The engine in the 2023 KTM 250 SX-F has also been carefully designed and tuned to best suit the performance and handling characteristics of the overall package, bumping up power in the mid-range and the top-end.
The 2023 KTM SX and SX-F range feature an entirely new and improved rider triangle, providing improved knee contact - especially when standing on the pegs - with improved gripping surfaces all around. New plastics work to expel mud buildup in wet, muddy conditions, with a new, flatter seat profile and high grip seat cover providing exceptional rider movement and control. The polyamide reinforced aluminum subframe further enhances rider feel and feedback.
Ready to rip your arms out of the sockets? Together with the benefits of mass centralization and an overall lighter feel, the anti-squat behavior of the chassis is significantly improved by changing the backbone of the steel frame concept. In layman's terms, the 2023 KTM 250 SX-F gets its power down perfectly when tearing out of corners.
Besides the expertly crafted, hydro-formed, laser-cut, and robot-welded frame being engineered to provide exceptional rider feedback and straight-line stability, it consists of specifically calculated parameters of longitudinal and torsional flex. This means the frame acts as a "shock absorber" of sorts, making for a less harsh ride, resulting in less rider fatigue over many hard laps.
