2018 KTM 250 SX

The KTM 250 SX has one of the best power-to-weight ratios in the world of dirt, forming the ultimate punch against more complex 4-stroke rivals. With the grunt to devour all sorts of tracks and terrains, and a lightweight chassis keen to skim the surface, this masterpiece of KTM’s R&D and Motorsport departments is born to lead the next pack of winners that prefer premix.

• ENGINE & EXHAUST

The engine of the KTM 250 SX has been known and respected for being the most powerful 2-stroke engine in its class. 2-strokes really do have a future at KTM. Their outstanding power-to-weight ratio, low cost and simplicity see to that. The KTM 250 SX engine has been optimized for mass centralization, comes with a twin-valve controlled power valve, a balancer shaft for less engine vibrations, a 5-speed transmission and a hydraulically operated DDS clutch. This compact firecracker truly outshines the competition with its ripping performance and is the right choice for lovers of low purchasing and maintenance costs. Oh, and of course don’t forget that belly tingling 2-stroke snarl when you’re on the pipe.

• CHASSIS

KTM engineers just love dropping weight year after year. The result: the 2018 KTM SX models are the slimmest, lightest dirt bikes out there.

• ERGONOMICS & COMFORT

READY TO RACE ergonomics give you the edge on the track, ride harder for longer.

• BODYWORK & GRAPHICS

KTM R&D, KISKA Design and all our factory riders had their say in shaping the plastics with one goal: complete harmony between rider and bike. Perfect ergonomics and contact points provide maximum comfort in movement on the SX. The I-beam structures of the front and rear fenders guarantee maximum stability and a low weight thanks to well thought-out construction and mounting. They also stay cleaner for longer.
