Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

KTM 125 SX 2017

KTM 125 SX 2017

It is the smallest and lightest (adult) KTM available. But there is much more to this little one than most would suspect.

Reasonable price

light weight

fun riding experience.

Engine characteristics need getting used to

unsteady chassis

not for those lazy about shifting gears

KTM 125 XC-W 2017

KTM 125 XC-W 2017

A "real" 125 EXC with road approval is no longer available. The EURO 4 hurdle and also the guidelines to prevent manipulation of the "A1" throttle were too strict. The 125 XC-W is now a cross-country machine without road approval. But it is still a real enduro and not an MX with a light mask. New 2017: E-starter upgrade option! "+" and "-" here are to be considered in relation to the other KTMs.

Inexpensive

easiest maintenance

pure enduro feeling

tough learning curve in the saddle

handling

easiest rideability on downhill sections

lightest bike

clearly superior material compared to other brands.

Suspension setup not suitable for heavy riders and engine power often insufficient

A lot of stress in the saddle

Demanding handling in low-traction conditions.
