RIDE REVIEW I 2024 KTM 350 SX-F
P78
There's a bit of a rift in the big-bike
market. Riding a 250 might not be
enough juice for a bigger or more
experienced pilot. If you still choose
to go that route, you might be riding it
too hard, which in turn leads to shorter
service intervals and the overall cost
of maintaining the machine. But riding
a 450 might feel like too much oomph
for a casual weekend warrior. After all,
60ish horsepower isn't something to
scoff at when the rider's age can be in
that same range, too.
Enter the 350 SX-F. At 224.65 pounds
without fuel, the 350 weighs in about
two pounds heavier than the 250 but
only one pound lighter than the larger
450. And according to KTM's power

350 SX-F is essentially
a '23 but with updated

on WP's Xact air fork.

come standard.
