I remember when i was 145 lbs, riding the earlier 250Fs, my mechanic didn’t like doing my suspension. They always had to do custom valving, internal preload and always had to go down a spring rate. I was a C knocking on B level rider at my best.
Keefer great you answered me question about the engine mounts!can the smaller linkage bolts be fitted 23/24 frames also I’m trying to add comfort to my 23 350 husky I already have cone valves and cut down my stock bars but the thing is a work out to push on I’m relatively small and light for modern mx size goes. I’m kinda stuck as I love 350 motors i love using the torque to jump vs 250s Have they fixed chain binding issue?
As a smaller guy myself, on my 21 250sxf. I have issues with comfort on the bike. It’s just so rough. The harder I push, the worse the bike reacts. The stock shock is wayyyyy too busy.
I am confused. Many reviewers say the alu frames (japanese bikes) are stiffer than steel frames (austrian bikes). Keefers say the alu frames are more compliant than steel. Can anyone clarify?
My dream bike right there. Do they usually apply the factory edition changes to standard 350 model the following year as well? I'm a light weight vet and keep flip flopping between getting another 250 or moving up to the 350 platform.
KTM is the KING of offroad. They have won the most supercross & motocross championships out of any manufacturer in the last 20 years. and have dominated enduro 25 years in a row.

@@HarryVines-zw2tmhaving owned multiples of both. The KTMs are generally better in every way, though I do love the yammys. KTM is a lot more refined imo.
@@genefuzer4287 ive owned 1 yamaha and 2 ktms and the yamaha is better in every way better suspension power build quality reliability better technology the only thing ktm has over yamaha is hp on the dyno which doesnt matter because watch just about any shootout they will say the yamaha is far more powerful
@@HarryVines-zw2tm 🤷🏻♂️ rider preference then I guess. I currently have a YZ 125 and like it, had 2 YZ 250’s, a yzf250 and ridden a few of the latest models of my mates and at the track, and I’ve owned a few SX’s, CR’s, CRF 250 2018, and have a 2020 sxf 250 factory, and I can say for me it’s hands down the best bike I’ve ridden and owned. I think the ergos on the KTM are far better, power delivery all over and smoothness of power is much much more refined and better than any YZ/YZF I’ve rode or owned, I also seem to fatigue far easier on a YZF. Guess it’s all rider preference but I prefer the KTMs in every way, I’d swap nothing on it for a Yamaha aside maybe the tuning app but an equally as good one is coming on the 2024.5/2025’s so I’ll see how that is.
@@OGLD youre kidding yourself. Clutch master cylinder 800 miles, and again at 2,000 miles. Starter bendix sheared in half and 8 hours. The list goes on. Ktm tears. Nice that theyve stopped aftermarket companies from making plastics. That should be fun.
Listen to Keefer's podcast with engine builder and owner of xpr from last week, says Austrian bikes are the most reliable. Yamahas are the least currently
Love my factory edition!

Have they fixed chain binding issue?
I'm curious about this question as well about the linkage Bolt

Chain on 23+ don't bind at 65-70mms of slack as Keefer has a video on here himself. I've tested myself aswell

Does the shock off of a 2024 Ktm 125 fit on the new (2025) Ktm 250

Bike seems compliant
Keeeeeeeeferrrrrrrr

Hyperaktive: to much sugar!

Hmm 🤔 this Video will not be up to date in probably twoish months.
Kawasaki used to be bottom to mid, KTM was a mid and up.
KT MS would be the most reliable bike on the market if it weren't for Yamaha Honda Suzuki and Kawasaki.
I’ve had 4 KTMs and never had an issue with reliability
