I'm on the market for a new bike and I wanna go white. Was originally thinking of going with the FC350 but having second thoughts. Who ever on here has one maybe try to convince me to buy one haha

Go orange sx250!! KTM has a better airbox (not plastic) and have many friends that have been having problems getting parts for the husky dealers as many are on backorder. Due to this they are back on Team Orange!!

I'm getting one... The tranny issues make me nervous, but I'm all in.

This should be the only convincing you need.

As of 2016 there's been some problems. The older models have good transmissions.

Both are high revving big bore (closer to 450 class) bikes. The 250 is likely a shade lighter and is much cheaper to maintain and rebuild when the time comes.

If I wasn't keeping my 125, I'd probably go 250 too, but the 350 is a great all arounder for your 4 stroke fix.

Has anyone been on a 17 KTM/Husqvarna yet? How does it compare to the previous models? With the new counter balance and air forks....is it worth the difference in price?
