Vehicle Information
KTM 500 EXC F Motorcycle - Dual-Sport (2017-2026)
The KTM 500 EXC F, a high-performance enduro motorcycle, was produced from 2017 to 2026. It is renowned for its power and handling, powered by a liquid-cooled, SOHC single-cylinder four-stroke engine with a displacement of 510 to 511 cc. This model has undergone several significant evolutions during this period. In 2017, the bike was completely redesigned to be lighter, stronger, and faster, featuring an engine optimized for mass centralization and a new Keihin management system. 2020 marked a major generation change, introducing a redesigned chassis and a more compact engine, a Pankl 6-speed transmission, and significant fuel injection updates. For 2024 and 2025, major suspension revisions were implemented with new WP XACT and XPLOR components. The 2026 model continues this trend with further engine and suspension improvements, including a TBI injection system. Special editions like the Six Days and the Champion Edition (2025) were also offered. FAQ:
