KTM 250 EXC 2012

powerful engine

smooth running

neutral handling

Strong rebound of the fork

High performance in combination with lively handling

simple design - thus hardest to handle under extreme loads

lower vibrations due to new motor with balancer shaft

Compared to the four-stroke, still more strenuous to ride on long stages

engine response "good", but not as clean as with the four-stroke

compared to the 300, especially for less experienced pilots, too little torque in the rev range.

Improved design

convincing gearbox

optimal gears

acceptable performance.

Chassis could be made a little more sophisticated.
