Vehicle Information
KTM 500 EXC Motorcycle - Dual-Sport (1990-2016)
The KTM 500 EXC is a renowned street-legal enduro motorcycle, though it's important to note that the specific 500 EXC model, featuring its 510.4 cc engine, was introduced in 2012, succeeding the 530 EXC-R. This powerful single-cylinder, liquid-cooled, SOHC, 4-valve, 4-stroke engine, paired with Keihin electronic fuel injection, defined the model from its inception in 2012 through 2016. The 2012 model year marked a significant overhaul, introducing a completely redesigned, lighter engine and transmission, a new chassis, and updated WP suspension. This initial release set the foundation for the subsequent years. From 2013 to 2016, KTM focused on refinements, including tweaks to engine mapping, suspension settings, and aesthetic updates like new plastics and frame colors (e.g., the orange frame in 2015). A notable trim, the 500 EXC Six Days Edition, was offered in years like 2016, featuring premium performance parts. FAQ:
