True to KTM’s motto of building a “ready to race” bike for each specific racing genre, the EXC is ready for the toughest enduro races you can throw at it the moment you bring it home from the dealer. Utilizing the same basic components as the SX and XC, the EXC has some key features specific to Enduro racing that set it apart from the other two models. Lights are required for public road use in most countries around the world, and with a core component of enduro races being a short section of on-road travel, KTM installed a high output lighting coil with a headlight and taillight on most of the EXC models.
Enduro racing is hard on both the bike and the rider. To maximize performance and comfort, KTM equipped the EXCs with softer suspension that a full blown motocrosser, gave it fatter tires for additional traction in multi-surface terrain, installed a larger gas tank for extended length races, and gave it electric start. They didn’t stop there however, and in true KTM passion, installed from the factory all sorts of incredible performance parts some of which are Magura Hydraulic Clutches, Brembo Brakes, FMF, Pro Circuit, or Akrapovic Exhausts, WP Suspension, Excel Wheels, Pro Taper or Renthal bars, and much more.
Offered in both 2-stroke, (EXC) and 4-stroke, (EXC-F), there is an EXC model to suit the needs of every enduro rider. There is even a specific desert racing model, the MXC which has different gearing and a higher output lighting coil than the basic EXC.
