¡VAMOS! THE 2025 KTM 500 EXC-F SIX DAYS IS READY TO RACE IN SPAIN
The 2025 KTM EXC-F dual-sport range fires onto the scene with a fresh orange makeover highlighting a series of refinements and key touches for the new year, delivering race-bred performance to the trails, and the pavement sections found in between. Following 2024’s significant 95% overhaul, the 2025 range continues to use revolutionary closed-cartridge suspension, a refined frame and bodywork, and industry-leading componentry.
The most eye-catching change is fresh new looks, replacing the previous 1990s-inspired purple highlights with a timeless silver-gray graphic over predominantly orange bodywork, offset by a black frame. The seat remains orange, featuring a high-grip seat cover and textured grip strips, which can also be found on the frame protectors, tank shrouds, and bar pad. A 48 mm WP XACT Closed Cartridge spring fork handles suspension duties up front, while at the rear, handling is further refined thanks to new settings for the WP XPLOR PDS shock, resulting in an improved pressure balance and a lower risk of cavitation. The swingarm also gets an update, with a machined unit to improve the durability of the chain slider. Up front, a new fuel tank mount now secures the tank more firmly in place while keeping the frame protected against scrubbing. For more information go to ktm.com/en-us
