Hey guys
i own an Husqvarna fc 250 2016 stock
and yesterday i rode an ktm sxf 250 2017 and its just way better
i mean the power felt little bit weaker then my hsuqvarna i think its because the 14/51 tooth
but the handling is just amazing and the suspension
how they made it? its really really feel so good and as begginer rider i really hitted the corners just way better
4cs are really bad
insane insane bike
i must buy it already

how much a set of wp aer fork should cost?
The Shop
much ty
The bike is very nimble and easy to ride, but I just can't agree with any of you that the forks are good. I have to admit I never rode the CV version, but compared to the SSS, they are no where close.
Engine is really powerful on top, but there is almost no bottom power and I'm a believer that you don't ride four strokes on top for various reasons (suspension works better, better traction and so on..).
The brakes and clutch are just perfect. I doubt any Japanese bike will have it like that in the coming years. What SSS is in the suspension department, that is what magura clutch and brakes are in their own segments. If KTM would make 250 with more bottom power and improve the suspension, I would buy it this second.
Also worth noting. I help from time to time my friend who has mx service shop. He already had to fix 3-4 AER forks due to broken seal inside the forks. What is causing that is unknown to us, but every 10-20 hours they need to be repaired. Whether or not this is isolated case I don't know, but that is what we found.
the sxf 250 2017 comes with 14/51 , and the riders dont know why they made it like that its big mistake
you should change to 13/50 or 13/51 and you will feel hows strong this bike and not just in top
and what is the sss suspenion? which bike come with them? or its an upgrade
because aer fork are stock suspension
Spectacular results!
Notice the Yamaha caps in the 4CS upper tubes.
Thanks a lot WP for putting .25mm shims in your new forks... "Your 4cs forks are harsh? maybe someone should tell WP to stop using shock shims in their base valves!"
I did Dal Saggio Inserts in my 16 KTM 350 and they kick the shit out of every pair of SSS forks I've owned... Even the AER forks we've compared them to don't stand a chance... So plush, firm and progressive with no bottoming and a ton of versatility...
