KTM 350 F EXC Factory
Key specifications
Overview
Introducing the 2011 KTM 350 F EXC Factory, a standout in the enduro-offroad category that perfectly blends lightweight agility with fierce performance. Known for its race-ready heritage, the 350 F EXC Factory was designed for riders who demand both versatility and power, making it a formidable contender on the trails and in competitive environments. With KTM's signature orange and blue color scheme, this machine is as visually striking as it is mechanically capable, appealing to both hardcore enthusiasts and casual riders alike. At the heart of the 350 F EXC Factory lies a potent single-cylinder, four-stroke engine with a displacement of 349.70 ccm. This powerhouse is engineered for maximum performance, boasting a compression ratio of 13.5:1, which translates to impressive torque and responsive throttle. The bike's Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) system ensures optimal fuel delivery for seamless power throughout the rev range, while the liquid cooling system keeps temperatures in check, even during the most demanding rides. The 5-speed gearbox, paired with a wet multi-disk clutch, allows for smooth gear transitions, enhancing the overall riding experience. With a weight of just 103 kg (227.1 lbs), the bike's nimble frame combined with its 185 mm of front and rear suspension travel provides exceptional handling over rough terrain, making it a joy to navigate challenging trails. KTM has packed the 350 F EXC Factory with key features that elevate its performance and rider experience. The central double-cradle frame made from 25CrMo4 steel ensures durability while keeping the weight low, and the aluminum subframe adds to the bike's agility. The WP Upside-down fork at the front and WP-Monoshock with linkage at the rear deliver precise suspension response, allowing riders to tackle obstacles with confidence. The bike's ground clearance of 375 mm (14.8 inches) ensures it can handle rocky trails, while the adjustable seat height of 992 mm (39.1 inches) accommodates riders of various sizes. Safety is paramount, and with single disc brakes measuring 260 mm at the front and 220 mm at the rear, stopping power is both reliable and effective. **
