2026 KTM 350 XC-F Factory Edition

01. Before The Flag

• CLICK INTO ACTION - EASY SUSPENSION ADJUSTMENT: The KTM XC-F has taken its already awesome suspension package and turned it up to 11. The WP XACT Closed Cartridge spring forks and WP XACT rear shock feature settings to improve weight distribution and increase overall response. As always, the suspension boasts easy, tool-free setup at both ends, ensuring you chase down the podium with total control. On the rear, a hand-adjustable dual compression control allows riders to adjust high- and low-speed settings in a matter of seconds. The forks on the front end are also easily adjusted thanks to hand-adjustable clickers on the bottom of the fork shoe and top cap.
• BREATHE EASY - AIRBOX: Utilizing a robust one-piece construction, the airbox on the KTM XC range features a one-piece air inlet sleeve and snorkel design, which prevents deformation and enhances airflow. But don't fret, easy filter access is retained, with an intuitive filter mounting system and protection against dirt intrusion.
• RACE-READY RUBBER - TIRES: Just like the KTM 350 XC-F FACTORY EDITION has been developed over many decades of hard racing, so too has the DUNLOP AT82 rubber fitted as standard. Boasting a bi-directional rear tread pattern with Progressive Cornering Block Technology, these tires provide unmatched levels of grip, consistency, and bump absorption - not to mention high-speed stability and overall durability. These are, of course, wrapped around a set of EXCEL Factory Wheels.
• FULL-FACTORY FEEL - CTG: A gloss-orange frame, orange Factory seat with the GUTS logo, and the unmistakable Red Bull FMF KTM Factory Racing colors can only mean one thing - READY TO RACE!

02. Start Strong

• UNMATCHED PERFORMANCE - MORE USABLE POWER: Perfectly filling the gap between the KTM 250 XC-F and the powerhouse KTM 450 XC-F, the lightweight KTM 350 XC-F powerplant rules the roost in a class of its own. Mated to a 6-speed gearbox by Pankl Racing Systems with an optimized XC transmission ratio, it is engineered and tuned to provide the best performance and handling characteristics possible. The DOHC engine delivers endless mid-range and top-end power together with the benefits of mass centralization and ideal anti-squat behavior. With 450-rivalling performance and an overall engine weight of only 60.6 lb, you'll leave the competition with more than a little mud on the face.
• EXHAUST: Complimenting the KTM 350 XC-F FACTORY EDITION hard-hitting power and torque is a titanium, FMF Factory 4.1 RCT Silencer. Not only does this provide a FACTORY RACING soundtrack, but it also shaves more weight from the overall package.
• DROP THE CLUTCH - LAUNCH CONTROL & QUICKSHIFTER: Launch control, ENGAGED! Designed for the holeshot, the KTM 350 XC-F FACTORY EDITION comes standard with launch control and a Quickshifter function, allowing for fast upshifts without using the clutch. Launch control is easily engaged by pressing the traction control and Quickshifter buttons simultaneously and works by limiting the amount of power to the rear wheel, improving traction, and preventing loss of control under hard acceleration. Meanwhile, the Quickshifter function means you can bang through from 2nd to 6th gear with your focus solely on the first corner.
• TOTAL TRACTION - SELECTABLE MAPS + TC: The map select switch on the KTM 350 XC-F FACTORY EDITION features an intuitive design, allowing for easy functionality in switching between 2 engine maps. Map 1 provides a more linear power curve, while Map 2 punches all-out with aggressive throttle and explosive power. Luckily, Traction control is easily toggled to an on or off position from the same switch, ensuring maximum traction and a distinct advantage in wet or muddy conditions.

03. Calm Under Fire

• CORNER ON RAILS - ABSOLUTE CONTROL: No matter how gnarly the terrain, you'll stay in complete control thanks to a rider-focused frame design - finished here in high-gloss orange - that has not only been engineered for longitudinal rigidity but also repositions rotating mass closer to the center of gravity. Thick frame walls improve reliability, and flex characteristics, while providing an unmatched rider feel. The shock mounting also provides the perfect amount of anti-squat for better traction out of corners, while the footpeg mounting position is positioned in such a way as to reduce the risk of hooking up on roots or rocks. Additionally, forged brackets on the lower frame rails allow for easy installation of the carbon-reinforced Factory Skid Plate.
• UNMATCHED PERFORMANCE - ULTIMATE STOPPING POWER: Don't worry about stopping power with the KTM 350 XC-F FACTORY EDITION. Both front and rear brake systems have been upgraded with a semi-floating front brake disc on the front, and a solid wave rear brake disc at the rear. An ultra-light, carbon-reinforced Factory Racing Front Brake Disc Cover helps with fast tire changes and brake servicing while keeping excess mud and grime off the stoppers.
• FLUID RIDER MOTION - ERGONOMICS: The KTM 350 XC-F FACTORY EDITION features bi-compound plastics, which work alongside a specially-developed rider triangle, to provide unmatched knee contact and gripping surfaces - especially when standing on the pegs. While the plastics work to expel mud buildup in wet, muddy conditions, the flat seat profile and high-grip orange seat cover give exceptional rider movement and control. A handy grip pocket under the seat, just above the airbox, makes gripping the bike and lifting it much easier. Additionally, the KTM 350 XC-F FACTORY EDITION also boasts a CUO-compatible front fender for the standard-fitment CUO.
• UNMATCHED PERFORMANCE - GO THE DISTANCE: You call it a fuel tank. We call it a 2.24-gallon race bucket. This transparent polythene fuel tank features a fuel tank roll, which not only secures the tank more firmly in place, it also protects the frame from unwanted scrubbing and race rash.

04. Hit The Big Stuff

• HARNESSING GRAVITY - MASS CENTRALIZATION: Ready to force the opposition into submission? Together with the benefits of mass centralization and the anti-squat behavior of the chassis, the KTM 350 XC-F FACTORY EDITION gets its power down perfectly when tearing out of corners. Riders will feel the extra precision and alignment from the striking, orange-anodized, and CNC-milled aluminum FACTORY RACING TRIPLE CLAMPS. Optimally tuned steering stem stiffness and geometry bring gains in handling and stability, among other advantages.
• UNFLAPPABLE FRONT END - WP XACT FORK: Ready to rip into the top soil of any GNCC stage or your favorite technical trail, the WP XACT Closed Cartridge spring forks on the KTM 350 XC-F FACTORY EDITION ensure stellar performance, with full adjustability and proper READY TO RACE credentials.
• ALL-OUT TRACTION - WP XACT SHOCK: As with the front end, the WP XACT rear shock is perfectly set up for stiffness and weight-saving. This, along with full adjustability, 300 mm of travel, and unmatched out-of-the-box ability, makes this the ideal setup for cross-country domination.

05. Maintaining Momentum

• UNOBTRUSIVE IMPACT - ULTIMATE RIGIDITY: The chain guide and chain guard fitted to the KTM 350 XC-F FACTORY EDITION are designed to maximize durability and minimize the chances of hooking on external objects - especially in extremely muddy conditions. They also help to reduce dirt build-up around the swingarm and chain guard. A hollow, die-cast aluminum swingarm also optimizes stiffness and reliability at the lowest possible weight. Now that's a Win-Win.
• WELCOME TO NEXT LEVEL MOTO - CONNECTIVITY UNIT OFFROAD: Fitted as standard on the KTM 350 XC-F FACTORY EDITION, the Connectivity Unit Offroad offers a wide range of functionalities and adjustability options via the KTMconnect app. The CUO gives racers a new insight into their riding, allowing for easy alterations in engine behavior, and even provides optimized suspension settings based on individual preferences and riding conditions. Riders - meet your new secret weapon.
• FLAT OUT TO THE FINISH - CONSISTENCY: The compact and lightweight DOHC cylinder features a short profile with the camshaft located as close to the center of gravity as possible. Lightweight valves are actuated via DLC-coated finger followers with optimized timing, specifically designed to deliver precise levels of torque and throttle response. The diameter of the intake valves is 36.3 mm, while that of the exhaust is 29.1 mm. The intake ports also allow higher flow coefficients, resulting in a more efficient and powerful engine, with the valve cover reducing the number of mounting screws, and a single oil spray jet guarantees efficient cooling while keeping the weight low. A HINSON OUTER CLUTCH COVER boosts the protective capabilities of the KTM 350 XC-F FACTORY EDITION and is also weight-optimized
