Overview

Introducing the 2024 KTM 300 EXC Six Days, a motorcycle that stands at the pinnacle of enduro-offroad performance. Designed for the serious off-road enthusiast, this bike pays homage to KTM's rich heritage in competitive racing, specifically the renowned Six Days Enduro events. Combining cutting-edge technology with rugged durability, the 300 EXC Six Days offers an exhilarating riding experience, whether tackling gnarly trails or conquering challenging terrains. With its lightweight yet robust build and advanced suspension setup, this machine is engineered for those who demand the highest level of performance from their ride. At the heart of the 2024 KTM 300 EXC Six Days is its potent 300cc two-stroke engine, featuring a bore and stroke of 72.0 x 72.0 mm. The fuel injection system, managed by Vitesco Technologies EMS, ensures optimal performance and precision in fuel delivery, resulting in smooth power delivery across the rev range. Coupled with a six-speed gearbox and a wet, multi-disc clutch with Brembo hydraulics, this bike provides a responsive and engaging riding experience. Riders can expect impressive fuel efficiency of 2.79 liters per 100 km, allowing for extended adventures without frequent stops at the pump, making it the ideal companion for long, exhilarating rides. KTM has equipped the 300 EXC Six Days with a robust chassis made from central double-cradle 25CrMo4 steel, providing incredible stability and handling. The WP XACT-USD front suspension with 300 mm of travel and WP Xplor PDS rear shock with 310 mm of travel work in harmony to absorb the toughest obstacles, ensuring the rider remains comfortable and in control. The braking system, featuring Brembo components, is designed for precision and reliability, with a 260 mm front disc and a 220 mm rear disc that instill confidence in any riding condition. With a generous ground clearance of 347 mm, this bike can easily navigate rocky terrains. Additional features such as an electric starter and a visually striking color palette of orange, white, blue, and purple further elevate the riding experience. **

  • Powerful and Efficient Engine: The 300cc engine delivers strong performance with impressive fuel efficiency, making it suitable for long rides.
