Overview

Introducing the 2021 KTM 250 EXC-F Six Days, a motorcycle that embodies the perfect blend of performance, agility, and durability, tailored for serious enduro enthusiasts and off-road adventurers. As a part of KTM's renowned Six Days series, this model celebrates the brand's legacy in off-road competition, offering riders an exceptional machine ready to tackle the toughest terrains. With its lightweight build and advanced engineering, the 250 EXC-F is designed for those who crave both thrill and precision, whether you're navigating through tight trails or racing against the clock. At the heart of this exceptional bike lies a robust 249.9cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine, engineered for optimal performance and responsiveness. With a bore and stroke of 78.0 x 52.3 mm, this powerplant delivers impressive torque and acceleration, making it easy to conquer steep climbs and rugged terrains. The advanced fuel injection system, combined with a Keihin EMS ignition, ensures that the engine runs smoothly and efficiently, while the six-speed gearbox provides seamless gear transitions for an exhilarating ride. Riders will appreciate the liquid cooling system that maintains optimal temperatures even during the most demanding rides, allowing for extended sessions in the saddle without overheating. KTM has packed the 250 EXC-F with cutting-edge features that enhance both performance and comfort. The frame, crafted from high-grade 25CrMo4 steel, provides exceptional rigidity and stability, while the WP-USD Xplor 48 front suspension offers an impressive 300 mm of travel, absorbing shocks from rough terrain with ease. The rear WP Xplor PDS shock absorber complements this setup with 310 mm of travel, ensuring a smooth ride over obstacles. With a dry weight of just 103.5 kg (228.2 pounds) and a ground clearance of 355 mm (14.0 inches), this bike allows for nimble maneuverability and easy handling. Additional features such as electric start and Brembo hydraulic braking system provide reliability and control, making the 250 EXC-F a versatile choice for any off-road adventure. **
