VOL. 55 ISSUE 22 JUNE 5, 2018 P49 The 2019 KTM 450 SX-F is, as expected, essentially the "old" (2018 ½) Factory Edition with different graphics. That means the 2019 450 SX-F gets a new cylinder head, updated chassis and new bodywork straight from the current Factory Edition. The 2019 450 SX-F is also lighter than the previous model. Compared to the standard 2018 450 SX-F, the 2019 450 SX-F features an all-new airbox, a newly shaped seat, more rear-axle adjustability, new engine mounts, a lighter sub- frame, new fuel tank, updated exhaust and throttle body, revised launch control and traction control settings, improved spoke nipples, revised suspension settings and a redesigned upper triple clamp, among other things. The 250 and 350 SX-F get similar treatment. KTM claims the 250 has increased low-end power. 2019 KTM 350 SX-F
