Four stroke fans will be excited to hear KTM has
released two new 2020 models, the new 350
XCF-W and 500 XCF-W. Both models are based
off of the popular EXC-F 350 and 500.
The XCF-W's receive the same chassis upgrades
as the other models in the lineup including a
s ffer frame and a longer subframe. Along with
the EXC-F model lines most recent upgrades
such as lighter engine cases, forged Pankl trans-
mission gears, shorter exhaust system, and
selectable maps. Both models feature WP Xplor
48-mm front fork and rear shock suspension.
Brakes are provided by Brembo with wave discs.
The 350 XCF-W receives a redesigned cylinder head
and cranksha , as well as a shorter piston and
cylinder, decreasing weight along with an increase
in compression. The 500 XCF-W is fi ed with a
new König piston, a lighter cylinder and tanium
intake valves. New rocker arm, camsha , and clutch
covers are also included in the upgrades. These im-
provements are apparent when placed on the scale
with 350 XCF-W weighing in at 232 lbs. The 500
XCF-W could be considered a featherweight (for a
big bore) at 235 lb. Both XCF-W models have also
been remapped for slightly more aggressive power.
