VOL. 51 ISSUE 23 JUNE 10, 2014 P55 A ll of the 2015 KTM SX-F mo- tocrossers took on many changes but the most nota- ble is the swap to WP 4CS forks for all SX-F and SX big-bike mod- els. All of the four-stroke SX-Fs also got a new machined cross- tube on the frame, new linkage geometry with an improved rising rate that KTM says provides bet- ter control, stability and balance. There's also a smaller diameter axle, a 2mm reduced off-set, new fork protectors, updated triple clamps, a new shock with new settings, new black-colored Excel rims and softer two-com- pound grips. The 250 and 350 SX-F gets the same changes, except the 350 gets a lighter swingarm and both the 350 and 250 get a lighter sprocket. Both the 250 and 350 SX-Fs now have a lighter clutch basket, and all three feature a new O-ring on the oil pump suction screen for increased durability. All of the four-stokes come fit- ted with Dunlop Geomax MX52 tires. < 2015 KTM 450 SX-F
