Overview

Introducing the 2012 KTM 350 SX-F, a formidable contender in the highly competitive enduro-offroad segment. Renowned for its lightweight agility and robust performance, the 350 SX-F is designed for riders who crave the perfect blend of power and precision. As part of KTM's acclaimed SX lineup, this model strikes an exceptional balance between the nimbleness of a 250cc bike and the brawny muscle of a 450cc machine, making it a favorite among both amateur and professional riders alike. With its striking orange, black, and white color scheme, this motorcycle not only looks the part but also lives up to its race-ready aesthetic. At the heart of the 350 SX-F lies a potent 349.70cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that delivers exhilarating performance on a range of terrains. With a high compression ratio of 13.5:1 and a refined bore and stroke of 88.0 x 57.5 mm, this engine offers a responsive throttle and impressive acceleration. Riders will appreciate the smooth power delivery and torque that makes tackling steep climbs and muddy tracks a breeze. The 5-speed gearbox, paired with a hydraulically operated wet multi-disk clutch, ensures seamless gear transitions, allowing you to harness the engine's power effectively while navigating through challenging off-road conditions. KTM has equipped the 350 SX-F with advanced technology and features that enhance both comfort and performance. The motorcycle boasts a robust central tubular frame constructed from chrome molybdenum steel, providing exceptional durability while keeping the weight down to just 105.4 kg (232.4 pounds). The WP suspension system, featuring 300 mm of front travel and 330 mm of rear travel, absorbs bumps and obstacles with ease, ensuring a smooth ride over rugged trails. Additionally, the electric starter adds convenience, letting riders fire up the engine effortlessly. With a generous ground clearance of 375 mm (14.8 inches), the 350 SX-F is built to conquer any terrain with confidence. **
