last 68mm of stroke that "helps
keep maximum compression in

940mm (37 in), while the stroke
has increased from 292mm

which includes rebound and
compression hand adjustability.
A newly developed, optional
Map Select Switch finds its way
onto both the two-stroke and
450 XCF-W and is designed
for quick, easy operation. On
the two-stroke XC-W range, the
Map Select Switch allows riders
to select between two engine
maps, while on the 450 XCF-W,
it has multi-functionality, being
used to toggle between engine
maps, Traction Control and
Quickshifter options.
The new KTM 250
and 300 XC-W
two-strokes now
have TBI fuel
injection.
Welcome the 350 and
500 XW-Fs. These
bikes are 50-state
emissions compliant
(joining Honda's
CRF450X) and come
with spark arrestors.
