2024 KTM 350 EXC-F

2024 KTM 350 EXC-F

Widely known for its 250-like agility and 450-like power, the KTM 350 EXC-F has built a reputation for versatility. But, that doesn't mean it's compromised. Gaining instant recognition on its arrival in 2012, it has become a class-leading model due to its sheer rideability and competitive power output. For 2024 it brings an all-new attitude to the fray, charging toward the limit with next-level ability.

PREPERATION MAKES PERFECT

• Adjustability

Getting READY TO RACE has never been easier. Thanks in part to its all-new suspension, the 2024 KTM EXC-F range boasts totally tool-free suspension setup at both ends. At the rear, our legendary, race-winning PDS technology features an all-new shock absorber design with hand-adjustable dual compression controls. This allows riders to adjust high- and low-speed settings in a matter of seconds. On the front, the forks are also easily adjusted thanks to hand-adjustable clickers on the bottom of the fork shoe and on the fork top cap, making changing settings on the fly as easy as twisting the throttle.

• Air filter box

Maximum airflow with minimal water intrusion, a new air filter box is designed with precisely positioned inlet ducts aimed at preventing air deformation and maintaining filter protection. An enduro-specific splash protector under the airbox prevents water or dirt from splashing up from the rear wheel, while the Twin Air filter and air filter support design feature a simple fail-proof mounting system for safe and accurate filter installation, ensuring the air filter is easily accessed, without tools, for fast track-side maintenance.

BENCHMARK LAP

• Engine

Light, compact, and weighing only 28,8 kg, the KTM 350 EXC-F engine is an outstanding bit of engineering. For 2024, the engine is tilted 2° backward with a repositioned sprocket for an improved center of gravity, while its high-revving, 51 horsepower punch, and intelligent low friction design, provide the goods at every twist of the throttle.

• Quickshifter

Clutchless upshifts are the name of the game with the all-new optional Quickshifter. The function works by interrupting the ignition for a fraction of a second. This allows upshifting without the use of the clutch lever, while the throttle is fully opened. On the technical side, a sensor on the shift drum notices the force on the shift lever, sending the signal to the ECU and interrupting the ignition timing to slot the next gear in. The Quickshifter can also be deactivated via the new map select switch and is only active from 2nd to 6th gear.

ON THE CHARGE

• Frame

Specifically engineered for longitudinal rigidity, the 2024 KTM EXC-F range is engineered around an all-new black powder-coated frame providing exceptional rider feedback, energy absorption, and high-speed stability. This has been achieved by repositioning the rotating masses in the frame and the inclusion of a forged steering head connection. The footrest mounts have also been moved inwards, slimming things down for less risk of hooking up. And when the ride comes to an end, a completely redesigned forged one-piece side stand ensures your enduro weapon stands proud.
