My brother just got a 14 xcf 250 with 3 hours on it! I'm hoping to get the 16 model for my birthday. The 17 is just too much. Both of us are not allowed to ride or see the bikes until our birthdays, which is October 30th!! The reason I know about the 14, is because I went with them to pick up the bike, we had to act quick because we got such a good deal on the bike!
My brother has a 2014 KTM 250 XC-F, i rode it and i love it! It has more than enough power, is so light and nimble, is amazing in technical trails and on the MX track. There is great power delivery all around, in the low, mid, and high rpms. Its so fun and smooth to ride, which is very confidence inspiring.
And at 13:16 you said that this bike doesn't work well in deep sand, but the mx track i rode it at, Gotham Mountain MX in Monticello, NY, is a track that is completely deep sand, but the bike worked great! And I'm not criticizing you, I'm just explaining my experience with the bike. Keep up the great videos!
Great review! Just picked up a 2017 KTM 250 XC-F. I would agree with just about everything you said. It is a LOT of fun. It has plenty of power for everything I've done on it so far. Handling is excellent. The new AER 48 fork is very very good right out of the box. I'm not sure I would agree they made them easier to work on but that's just my view on it. And I hated the rear hand hold position. It's way to high up and way to slippery. You can't get good leverage there. I put one of the bar style grips that mount to the muffler mounts and it's worlds easier to move the bike with that.Thanks Sam for your generosity in sharing your bike with Kyle and us.
I always say the gear does not make you a better rider but wait until you get your hands on a 2017 300. After just test riding one 2016 and one 2015 I was not fully convinced the switch from my 350 (2013) was going to be good. But I'm not joking -It made me faster, not as warn out and leaves a big smile on my face. No I have EXC so it has kick start as well...
Very smooth riding, congrats! Excellent and relevant back to back test, helped me make up my mind to buy a KTM 250 excf now, I was worried that it wouldn't have enough bottom end grunt but it obviously does.
For the plastics: a racing exhaust line (titanium is the best) and it won’t heat as much For the tire : it’s a really soft racing tire, they grip impressively well but are more prone to rupture
LOL fucken joke right??.."the bike feels good" ... wtf does that mean.. listen to "Keefer tested"...thats a real person who knows real shit... not these fucken squids
Hey Kyle! Great review on the 2016 KTM 250 xcf. Alright I happen to own the 2016 KTM 350 xcf, 2016 250 xcf, 2012 300xc and the 2011 250 xc (2 stroke-PDS suspension) They all great bikes.... Now lets talk a little about the 2016 KTM 250 xcf. I really love how well balance the 2016 bikes are and the 250 xcf is not exception. The motor and the chassis are great but the suspension not that great for my like. I life in TX and I ride very technical rocky trails. The one thing I notice right away the first day I rode the bike was the deflection on the front forks (4CS) (very unpredictable). Yes you can fix it a little setting the shock high speed from 1 1/2 turn (OEM) out to 2-2 1/2, sliding the forks down to the first line in the top and maybe softening the rear shock. All that will release pressure out the front forks and make the bike more predictable. You can send the forks (4CS) to any suspension tuner and the bike will be a little better but is not the solution. The solution will be to buy a set of "cone valve" forks but I cant afford $3,500 so the real solution for me was swap my 2012 KTM 300xc forks (Close Cartridge) made by Factory Connection and let me tell you guys is DAY AND NIGHT!!! Way more compliance and predictable. Very plush in the bottom with more progressive feel in the rest of the stroke. I used to race Yamaha for years and I always said that the perfect bike will be the KTM motor/chassis with the Yamaha suspension and I think I found the missing link here. The bike feels absolutely amazing everywhere.... Of course I have more goodies on the bike like: Flexx handlebars, Rekluse Clutch and FMF 4.1 full exhaust system, but that is my preferences on the bike. My advise is for you guys out there find a old Close Cartridge forks and re valve it to your riding skills and you will have a near PERFECT BIKE. I hope this information help and thank your great videos and information. Braapppp! Jerry 214
Sweet video. I will say, 250s definitely eat valves and timing chains much faster than 450s. Not sure if it's always beating on it or just the high revving nature. My fiance has a 250 and she's not very aggressive by any means. But still shimming and changing timings chains quite often.
Don't worry so much about that backup kick starter. I do almost no maintenance on my battery in my 2016 250xcf or 2013 350xcf, and have never once had a problem. Weight is key, and as such KTM will never put that on any of the XC or SX models. We've done multiple long distance rides 600-800+ miles and never once ran into a battery or starter issue (on the four strokes that is). All of my bikes get treated to a Rekluse Core EXP as well, so bump starter requires more work, but never had to use that option. Good review! p.s. If you don't have enough power to run 6th, you're going too slow ;)
I think you're power is enough idea is great for the average lighter weight rider, many of us are over 200lbs and like steep nasty hills and the 250s I've ridden didn't have it.
Hi Kyle,I am getting ready to get another dirt bike, I was set on a 20, or21 yz250fx, then I seen one of these (2018 KTM XC-f 250), I’m 60 yrs old and still ride aggressive, I’m more into trails than tracks, but do enjoy both, In your opinion, which do you think would be better, I’m 5’ 9” @190 lbs.
A good comparison yet to do would be the 250 XCF VS the 350 XCF. Similar weights and so forth, but motor character will be totally different. I would be VERY interested to know your opinion thus far between them, since the 250F has gotten so much better.
4 years too late but I’m regards to the battery,not really sure why you’d have an issue with a battery if you keep it on a tender,I desert ride my 19kx450 and haven’t had one issue with a battery,so was the bike being ridden a lot without being charged? There are even weeks at a time I wouldn’t charge my 19 kx450 and I’d take it out and it never failed to start. Just curious about that battery issue because I found a 2020 ktm 250xcf I was thinking of picking up just for mellow ride days when I don’t wanna get worn out from the 450 power,but this battery issue scares me now from buying one lol 😂
I really enjoy your videos. I am in the market for a dirt bike and am leaning toward KTM. The XC-F is what I looking for. For a guy that is 6, 2” and 225bs. Would you recommend the 250 or a larger bike. Thanks!
I was wondering, you say that if you could get 250 hours on this bike you would choose this one.. specifically, pertaining to amount of hours.. does that mean 250 hours before a major maintenance is required? I am unfamiliar with Ktms and I am wondering about reliabity.. what is the timeline for required maintenance... valve replacement .. engine rebuild... I am interested in knowing what major bike manufacturer, ktm, yamaha, Honda.. is offering the best bike pertaining to the longer duration before major maintenance is suggested or required.. thank you.
Lol long live the 2 strokes, really not a 4 stroke bike guy, I just got a 2015 KTM 250xc and I love it going off a 200xcw... Well never ridden a KTM 4 stroke ever tho
The kick start is a huge issue for me. I ride by myself alot and generally miles from anywhere. Not the safest thing in the world but it is what it is. lol Having to carry an extra battery around would be a pain in the rear and hopefully we will see the kick start on next year's model. Great video Kyle and Sam!
I agree, we ride pretty far out with some steep hills and if you're stuck at the bottom w no kickstart you're hosed. It's not just the battery either, I've had the relay go out on the 1st day of a 4 day trip, called every KTM shop in a 100 miles no one carried it...
Now with the XCF being the off-road model, are they tuned down like the WR250fs or are they still cranked up. And how much maintenance do you how to do on the bike?
Hey guys, I'm about to replace my 661 pressure suit and I don't know what to look at. I'm considering leatt, poc, 661. Do I get air fit or soft shell, or stay with hard shell? I live in Vegas and ride technical rocks and high speed desert. Thank you.
Now that you've ridden both '17's the 250 XCF and 300 xc how would you say they stack up. Im looking into a new bike and I'm stuck between the two 250 versions. I love my current 250xc, but the thought of not premixing gas, better mileage and never F-ing jetting again makes me smile.
I prefer the 2 stroke version and it's not even a close call. They 250XC-F is a really fun bike, it it's not as capable in my opinion as an "all around" bike if you know what I mean.
Dirt Bike Channel right on, I can deffinatly see pros and cons to both but you just affirmed what I was already thinking. all I'm really doing is racing Harscrambles and Enduros, I'm still pretty torn here.
Great review as usual guys. Kyle I've been running the 250FX for last year and really like it. However the weight and top heaviness gets to me at times. I have only road the 14' 250XCF with the old chassis and prefer the FX to that. The 16' does interest me a lot for a future bike. Was the slow speeding cornering and overall flickability that much better than the FX? Could you notice the lower weight quite a bit? and finally did it lug as well in the low R's. I tend to ride a gear tall so Im curious about that.
Hey Kyle, I was wondering what tire size do you run on your 300? I was thinking about going to the wider 120/100-18 rear tire with the desert it. I have the 110/100-18 on there now. I have a 2007 KTM 300xcw. Thanks again.
I have run both sizes you mentioned there. I didn't notice much of a difference between the two. Some tires last longer than others, but I haven't really tried any that I hate.
IK its alot to ask and probably not very realistic cause obviously money dosent grow on trees. but i think it would be cool if you talked about the new ktm - husky 150 2 stroke enduro bikes, if you get the chance.
I'm getting this bike soon, I can't seem to find any known issues that aren't personal preference or issues caused by the customer. I would like to know if you know anything I don't, thanks!
I know this is an old video, but I just had to comment. I could not agree more about the desire for a kick starter. I don't know what it is with people who like electric start, but if you have ever been stranded with a dead battery then you know how valuable a kick starter is. I absolutely HATE electric start in ever single situation. Yes my leg gets tired after long rides, but at least I have no fear of being screwed miles away from the truck. Electric start should go away.
I must say I really like your reviews, however i don't get one thing. Do you really need closed-course XC-f for amateur riding and longer trips? Linkage, No headlight, no kickstarter, starting problems. I have great news for You guys. KTM already has the solution. All You are asking for is 250 exc-f (especially the previous version with build in kick). Way better for slower, technical stuff as well. Fast enought for all of us. Mike
They stopped making the 4 stroke EXCs (XC-Ws in the USA) after 2016 models. These are all you can get going forward. I prefer the gearing on the XCs anyway for my riding style.
Man Kyle, I wish I could meet up with you and have you take my Beta for a spin. (Im only a half hour away from you.) I'd really like to hear what you'd think of it. Alot of things the KTM seems to fall short on the Beta has but your opinion would be interesting to hear. Great reviews on so the bikes you've tested. Thanks for the video.
Another $500 wireless mic and another $300 console to get 2 inputs into the camera at the same time. Then a rig to hold that console on the tripod and the camera at the time time. All this to compliment the $10K+ in video equipment I use here for a video that barely pays me a thing :(
Sam brings such a great dynamic to the video's. You should have him on more often if possible!
Thank your for watching!
My 250 xcf is running on 240hrs. Still going strong 🙌🏽
How many top ends and valvetrain bits have you gone through?
geeeez
Cole Stevens nothing. Needs one relatively soon tho
What?! Seriously? That is amazing.
My brother just got a 14 xcf 250 with 3 hours on it! I'm hoping to get the 16 model for my birthday. The 17 is just too much.

Cole Rides But its all about comparison. When u compare it to a 15 yr old bike, its of course very good

I looked at that 250 exc-f today at the dealership. My dream bike 👌🏽

just got this bike today , and I'm more than impressed with it !

For the tire : it’s a really soft racing tire, they grip impressively well but are more prone to rupture
Just got this bike, and it is a rocket ship! Loved the vid guys.
You guys do an excellent job with your channel! Really big fan of what you're doing! Keep up the great work and I'll be sure to watch them.
Thanks brother.
world class vids you deserve over a million subs
Not sure about that, but I do appreciate your thought!
+Dirt Bike Channel you really do. Great quality videos
You deserve at least 750 k subs. Too bad the dirt bike youtube community isn't that big. :(
LOL fucken joke right??.."the bike feels good" ... wtf does that mean.. listen to "Keefer tested"...thats a real person who knows real shit... not these fucken squids
Im from slovenia and i like your videos

This is a bike very high on the "Next Bike List", along with the 350exc.
Very good review from dirt bike channel as always.
Thanks Walter.

p.s. If you don't have enough power to run 6th, you're going too slow ;)
We were going at top speed. There isn't enough power at this altitude to pull 6th on this bike.
I think you're power is enough idea is great for the average lighter weight rider, many of us are over 200lbs and like steep nasty hills and the 250s I've ridden didn't have it.
Awsome review lads, a review on the ktm exc range would be interesting coming from an xc and sx lover
Hi Kyle,I am getting ready to get another dirt bike, I was set on a 20, or21 yz250fx, then I seen one of these (2018 KTM XC-f 250), I’m 60 yrs old and still ride aggressive, I’m more into trails than tracks, but do enjoy both, In your opinion, which do you think would be better, I’m 5’ 9” @190 lbs.
i so agree with you when uyou say that you feel at home on this bike ... their awesome .
Mate i always wants to ride my ktm after your videos!
Thank you this and greetings frome Hungary! :)
Thanks for watching David!
Amazing video and review. Always underbuilt statements etc

Kyle, ever consider organizing group trips for those of us not blessed with such awesome riding ?????
I really enjoy your videos. I am in the market for a dirt bike and am leaning toward KTM. The XC-F is what I looking for. For a guy that is 6, 2” and 225bs. Would you recommend the 250 or a larger bike. Thanks!
Larger
I can't wait to see what you think about the new 2017 ktm 300xc
I hope to get my hands on one soon.
+Dirt Bike Channel awesome looking forward to that love your vids

Really like Sam's fox gear.
He has about worn it out. He's due for some new stuff.
The kick start is a huge issue for me. I ride by myself alot and generally miles from anywhere. Not the safest thing in the world but it is what it is. lol
Having to carry an extra battery around would be a pain in the rear and hopefully we will see the kick start on next year's model. Great video Kyle and Sam!

Hey Bryan 😑
+nick bryant hey man. Nice to see a neighbor(T.N.) around here! Keep up the good work at HSF!
Bryan Roberts you can get a kickstarter kit to put on it
Now with the XCF being the off-road model, are they tuned down like the WR250fs or are they still cranked up. And how much maintenance do you how to do on the bike?

Kyle, what elevation are your riding at? Doesn't the altitude kill the power on these little 250s?
hallo here in europe we haven't xcf what change from sxf engine? iknow 18 rear gas tank and then?
Great review as usual guys. Kyle I've been running the 250FX for last year and really like it. However the weight and top heaviness gets to me at times. I have only road the 14' 250XCF with the old chassis and prefer the FX to that. The 16' does interest me a lot for a future bike.

I tend to ride a gear tall so Im curious about that.
This bike made the 250FX feel heavy, to be honest. I'm working on a video where we talk about that.
Look forward to that. And thanks for the reply.
Hey Kyle, I was wondering what tire size do you run on your 300? I was thinking about going to the wider 120/100-18 rear tire with the desert it. I have the 110/100-18 on there now. I have a 2007 KTM 300xcw. Thanks again.

What an awesome bike
Yes, it's really a fun bike to ride. I was very impressed.
besides the obvious differences like the big tank and 18" rear wheel, what is different between the ktm 250 xcf and sxf?
Garrett Cibak Gearing, suspension and a few other little things.
IK its alot to ask and probably not very realistic cause obviously money dosent grow on trees. but i think it would be cool if you talked about the new ktm - husky 150 2 stroke enduro bikes, if you get the chance.
Great review.
Congrats.
Thanks Brother
Great video, much appreciated
Does ktm make a kit to put a kick start on it
Going to review the latest 2023?
I am 5'2 89 lbs and want to get a dirt bike so what dirt bike should I get
85 or a 150f
+Nathan Bearden thanks I was looking at a Honda crf150r
Any chance you guys will do a somewhat long term update on the 16 250xcf?
The 250 XCF was sold months ago after the review on it.
Sold Dirt Bike Channel, going to the dealership today to lay down a deposit on a 2018 KTM 250XCF
I'm getting this bike soon, I can't seem to find any known issues that aren't personal preference or issues caused by the customer. I would like to know if you know anything I don't, thanks!
Don't know of any personally. Just mad that it doesn't have a back up kickstarter
Dirtbike Channel Sam good to hear, I can deal with that since I race more than I trail ride but thanks for the heads up as far as batteries go!
I know this is an old video, but I just had to comment. I could not agree more about the desire for a kick starter. I don't know what it is with people who like electric start, but if you have ever been stranded with a dead battery then you know how valuable a kick starter is. I absolutely HATE electric start in ever single situation. Yes my leg gets tired after long rides, but at least I have no fear of being screwed miles away from the truck. Electric start should go away.
does this bike available in south east asia?
Damn I'm kinda regretting buying a 250fx over this although there were no used 16 ktms when I was looking
The 250FX is still a very great bike. Don't fret too much!
My 2012 xcf has a backup kickstarter but the 2016 doesnt😂
The new starters and lithium batteries are far more reliable
If you ride in a harsh area.....don't run tubes.
I must say I really like your reviews, however i don't get one thing. Do you really need closed-course XC-f for amateur riding and longer trips? Linkage, No headlight, no kickstarter, starting problems. I have great news for You guys. KTM already has the solution.

Have you done a YZ250f review, if so tell me the video name. If you haven't then you should
I did the review on the YZ250FX recently, but not the F version.
i think we have a major ktm fanboy :) i think yamaha is the next best thing compared to the ktm (price:quality wise) what do alll of you think?
What would you recommend between the KTM 250 XC-F or the Yamaha YZ250X? Thanks!
This really depends on the rider.
We can't answer that yet. Hopefully soon.
Thanks for the reply :)
What is the max speed of this bike?
I have GPS-ed mine 2017 xcf on roads and I hit a GPS 90 MPH! At like 13 pounds air in tires to boot.
Man Kyle, I wish I could meet up with you and have you take my Beta for a spin. (Im only a half hour away from you.) I'd really like to hear what you'd think of it. Alot of things the KTM seems to fall short on the Beta has but your opinion would be interesting to hear.
Great reviews on so the bikes you've tested. Thanks for the video.
I'll get around to riding a beta soon. I'm going to be picking up a YZ250X next, but I have beta on my radar for sure.
What about the 350?
I'll get around to talking about that one more too as we go along.
When Sam want to sell, have him gimme a call !! I’ll even drive out from NY and take him out to a nice steak dinner. How “bout that?
Is this bike fuel injected?
yes.
where is the kick start?
ops commented before watching the whole video
I was also wondering that
haha. lol
Great
250 4 stroke why. 2 stroke is better in my opinion
2 JOKER.4 SMOKER
I knew deep down you were a 4 stroke guy.
I have ridden 4 stroke machines my entire life. I'm only recent 2 stroke convert!
I run my bike at 5 pound of air
I'm guessing you ride sandy conditions only?
2x🦑
Your garments are showing
these guys ride "single trail" because they are slow on the Moto x track ;) LOL
get another mic, jeez..
Another $500 wireless mic and another $300 console to get 2 inputs into the camera at the same time. Then a rig to hold that console on the tripod and the camera at the time time. All this to compliment the $10K+ in video equipment I use here for a video that barely pays me a thing :(
haha they aren't cheap
Lol i love how KTM wont even put their stickers on that lawnmower
