2015 KTM SX-F FACTORY EDITIONS KTM has announced the release of the 2015 KTM 450SX-F and 250SX-F Factory Edition race motorcycles. This year marks the fourth year of a new 450SX-F Factory Edition motorcycle and the first year that KTM has released a 250SX-F Factory Edition. For the 2015 model, KTM has stepped up the game once more and developed a whole new generation SX model motorcycle. Both the 450SX-F and 250SX-F Factory Editions have been developed with the primary objectives of weight reduction and mass centralisation for improved performance. Both motors have been completely redesigned to be lighter and more compact while producing more power. The new engine cases on both models are redesigned to centralise the rotating mass of the crankshaft and clutch while reducing the overall length. Both models have a reworked Keihin Engine Management System with new 44mm throttle body and a new electronic launch control for efficient starts. New cylinder heads, revised valve trains, new combustion chamber geometries and optimised ports increase performance along with a new five-speed transmission on both models to provide precise and easy shifting. The chassis is completely reworked with a lighter chromoly steel frame that provides improved handling and energy absorption. A lighter subframe and swingarm match the new frame characteristics. The WP 4CS fork and brand new WP shock have been specifically designed for motocross and features revised damping settings optimised for the new chassis. The new upgrades result in roughly a three-kilogram weight-reduction on the 250 SX-F Factory Edition and over four kilograms on the 450. The Factory Edition models come with other add-on benefits including: Red Bull KTM limited-edition graphics, Selle Dalla Valle Factory Race Team seat, orange-anodised rubber mounted triple clamps, lightweight Galfer Wave rotors, CNC-machined hubs, high-end Excel rims fitted with Dunlop GEOMAX MX32 tires, KTM/ODI lock-on grips, KTM PowerParts fork mounted start device, engine map select switch and a KTM PowerParts hour meter. These bikes are available by pre-order only as stocks are limited. Get in fast to secure one of these pure race machines.
