I know the 2016 KTM's will incorporate all the mods/upgrades that the 2015 1/2 Factory Editions now offer. Is there anyone here that knows if the same package for the 2016 350 SX-F will be offered in the U.S.?

As far as i know it gets all the chassis upgrades but will keep the same motor as 15. I believe I read that on mXA.

if its any indication, Cairoli is running an new motor that looks alot like the 250FE. Id put money on the 350 having a new motor and chassis based on the same premises as the 250 and 450 FEs (smaller gear box, smaller cases, raised clutch, ect)

I wonder what the reason for not having the Cairoli replica in the US is? I could see if it was a street legal thing with different emission standards between US and Euro, but on closed course bike, think there would be a good demand for a FE 350sxf

The 350 is NOT popular here in the states. If you wanted to buy a Cairoli replica, you can get them in Mexico. True story !!

The '16 350, Will NOT have the new motor, according to MXA and also others "in the know" ! Wink

Yeah I don't think that is correct I have seen several places that the 350 is the most popular bike. If you own one you know why too. It's the best bike ever. I would have a hard time not buying a 350FE.

Yep. Don't know how many they bring in, but I've read in several places it's a sell out every time.

Vets! Speaking as one who has one, it's a vet bike dream!

I agree. I loved that bike when I rode it. I talk about it any chance I get on here but I did a KTM ride day and absolutely loved the 350. I'm average sized 5'9 170 and it always seemed like 450s were too fast for me and the 350 fit just right. It will be my first major purchase when I'm done with school in May.

For all around riding 350s are the ticket but for MX a 300cc two stroke is my ultimate MX weapon choice.

The 350 is KTM's biggest seller.

I've been riding the Husky FE350S.

Truly a "Do-All" Dirt Bike.
