2015 KTM 350 EXC-F, 2015 KTM 350 EXC-F BEST IN CLASS Die 350 EXC-F is the ultimate enduro when it comes to optimum rideability and maximum enduro performance. Thanks to its compact, powerful DOHC engine, its low weight and perfectly tuned chassis, this machine overcomes all problems presented by the terrain with incredible ease. And thanks to its playful handling, it is always at an advantage when the going gets really tough. Whether professional or beginner, this benefits the rider all the more, the longer the track is. Maximum fun factor guaranteed! Features May Include: TRANSMISSION The 6-speed transmission is designed specifically for the engine characteristics of the 350cc engine and for every type of enduro use. It excels with precise and easy shifting. CYLINDER HEAD Together with very small, lightweight (only 8 g) cam followers with DLC coating, the DOHC cylinder head is equipped with four ultra-light titanium valves (intake 36.3 mm, exhaust 29.1 mm), allowing extremely high engine speeds of up to 12,000 rpm. The valve timings of the camshafts are designed perfectly for performance in the enduro-specific lower rev range. CRANKSHAFT Compared with the 350 SX-F, the 350 EXC-F is equipped with a heavier crankshaft to generate more gyrating mass for more uniform power development and better traction. As on all 4-stroke EXC models, it has a plain bearing in the lower conrod eye. This design enhances the durability of the engine, thereby enabling long service intervals for the crankshaft. ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (EMS) The engine management system (EMS) from Keihin, with electronic fuel injection and 42 mm throttle body, ensures spontaneous responsiveness and maximum engine performance. Various engine characteristics can be selected via the EMS, with a map-select switch available as a PowerPart. Furthermore, a user-setting tool (also available as an option) allows data to be read from the bike by laptop and the mapping, ignition and fuel injection to be modified in a matter of a few mouse clicks. BALANCER SHAFT To counterbalance the inertia forces, the 350 EXC-F engine is equipped with a balancer shaft on the right-hand side, which acts simultaneously as a water-pump drive and a drive wheel for the timing chain. This solution makes a major contribution to the extremely compact design of the engine. SUSPENSION/DAMPING TThe KTM 350 EXC-F has its own individual suspension setting, optimally tuned to weight and engine. The high-quality WP suspension components have been specially designed for enduro use. They ensure maximum traction and plenty of comfort. At the rear, a PDS shock absorber from WP Suspension works with a direct linkage to the upper side of the swingarm. The wide range of setting options for rebound damping and high- and low-speed compression damping are st
