Is the KTM 450 SX-F A new bike?
It isn’t every day that I get to write about a “new” bike that already has podium time, but KTM produced a bike for its upcoming lineup that has done just that. Introducing the KTM 450 SX-F; newly redesigned for 2016, and newly crowned Supercross king.
What kind of fork does a KTM 250 SX F use?
The KTM SX-F models feature the advanced WP 4CS four-chamber closed cartridge fork with an updated setting for 2016. The 4CS fork has been specifically designed and adapted for motocross racing in the USA. Top quality, CNC-machined triple clamps have been something of a KTM trademark for years.
How much does a Yamaha KTM SX-F weigh?
The KTM weighs in at 224.6 pounds, ready to race but unfueled, and the Yamaha claims 247 pounds wet. Given the fuel capacity on the SX-F of 1.6 gallons, I’d say KTM wins the weight category by a mile.
Is the twin air filter on a KTM 450 SX F?
The new Twin Air filter is easier and safer to mount and can be changed without tools in seconds – a standard and original KTM feature. As in the past, all new SX-F engines are fitted with the proven electric starter – a unique KTM feature and a major benefit at all levels of motocross racing.
