Overview

Introducing the 2012 KTM 350 SX-F Cairoli Edition, a limited-edition masterpiece crafted to honor one of the most successful motocross racers in history, Antonio Cairoli. This agile enduro-offroad bike is designed for competitive riders who demand both performance and precision. With only 500 units produced, the Cairoli Edition stands out not just for its striking orange, black, and white livery, but also for its exceptional engineering that combines lightweight construction with powerful performance. Whether you’re tearing through rough terrains or competing in high-stakes races, this motorcycle is built to deliver an exhilarating ride and unmatched handling. At the heart of the KTM 350 SX-F is its robust 349.70 cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine, which produces a thrilling balance of power and torque. With a high compression ratio of 13.5:1 and a finely tuned electronic ignition system, this engine is designed to provide instant throttle response and seamless acceleration. Riders will appreciate the smooth operation of the 5-speed gearbox, allowing for swift gear changes that enhance the riding experience. Weighing in at just 105.4 kg (232.4 lbs), the bike's lightweight construction combined with exceptional suspension travel—300 mm at the front and 330 mm at the rear—ensures superior agility and control, making it perfect for navigating the most challenging off-road conditions. The 2012 KTM 350 SX-F Cairoli Edition comes equipped with a host of innovative features that enhance both performance and rider comfort. The central tubular frame, crafted from chrome molybdenum steel, offers exceptional rigidity and stability, while the WP Suspension components provide outstanding shock absorption and handling characteristics. The hydraulic wet multi-disk clutch allows for smooth engagement under power, making it easier to tackle steep inclines and tricky obstacles. With a generous fuel capacity of 7.50 liters, riders can enjoy extended rides without frequent refueling. Additionally, the electric starter ensures quick and reliable ignition, so you're always ready to hit the trails. **

Pros

  • Lightweight and Agile: At just 105.4 kg, the bike offers excellent maneuverability, making it easy to handle in tight situations.
  • Powerful Engine: The 349.70 cc engine provides a thrilling performance with quick throttle response, perfect for competitive racing.
