Consider how you use your 350 now - as in, do you rev it to the stratosphere as can be done on the 350, that brings it to being competitive with 450s? If so, std capacity is what you want, as, big bore kits tend to limit revs. But if you don't rev it to the moon, a big bore might just be the 'thing' for you. I have to say, the vast majority of 350 riders I've observed, ( I'd be one of them, as I'm used to a 500 2t that peaks at around 6k- and I rarely...

Rekluse Radius CX. Best mod I've done to my 18 350SXF so far. Ride 95% Moto.

I have an 2017 Sxf 270 that I absolutely love. Had a 2017 350 prior to it and the power is similar, but the 270 is definitely easier to handle. In my case I have the bigger jug, RnD throttle body, Vortex and the head was massaged just a little, but all set up to run on pump gas. Big jump in Hp, 52 and change peak on the dyno and it pretty much maintained the same power curve, albeit with a small jump in torque. As far as rebuilds go, I put a new top end in at 52...

I love the 270 kit. Harris did the mapping on my KTM 270 kit (and he made the kit). I did no other mods, great engine. It retains all of the good 250F traits and adds a lot of rideability. I've seen no difference in reliability either. If you can go 270 (not constrained due to racing/class issues), it is the best mod as far as bang for the buck.

Never trust a high hour 4 stroke race bike. Obviously TTRs and KLXs are different. I've bought a lot of used bikes and it is impossible to tell the condition of the internals. At least with two strokes it's cheap and easy to rebuild the whole thing.

I see lots of bikes standing on their own after doing a burnout in a muddy field, buried up to the axle.

Kind of agree with this honestly. Unless you can trust who did the work. Very few and far between but some sellers will freshen up a used bike before sale so they know the buyer is getting a solid machine.

Unless on a limited budget I would look for one under 25 hours. It’s amazing the number of people that have bikes that don’t use them and then sell with low hours. If you’re not in a hurry they are out there. Saying that, the KTM 350s and 450s regularly go over 100 hours on stock top end if they have been maintained properly (oil and air filter changes). When looking at used bikes look how they maintain other items besides the bike for sale. Clean/organized garage, clean vehicles, maintained yard USUALLY equates to someone that takes care of their...

This. You can usually just tell from how the photographed the bike/ what’s in the backgrounds of the photos. not breaking any news here but a list of red flags add as you see fit photo at sand dunes Leaning up against a tree dirty wet from just being washed being ridden (bonus points if jumping in dead sailor position)

Having owned the old generation 21 and 22 FC350, and 23 MC350 and now the new generation 25 FC350 the new gen bike in my opinion is much better. Feels lighter on the track although the scale says otherwise. Better power delivery. Providing condition, maintenance records, hours, cost are all similar go 24 ktm. The MC 350 is a great bike but the ktm will have Brembo, map switch, etc. the gg doesn’t (unless its been modded)

" Perhaps Eli should have gone to Husqvarna considering KTM's current issues ?" They're under the KTM umbrella.

Marketing 101. It gets eyeballs and people talking about the brand. You can say what you want about the boots, but they've already won and the announcement hasn't even dropped.

This and FXR are the nicest looking gear now.
