KTM 50 SX FACTORY EDITION 2022

KTM’s FACTORY EDITIONs are the result of years of developing Factory Race machines for some of the fastest riders on the planet competing on some of its most challenging terrain. Junior riders and racers that climb on the KTM 50 SX FACTORY EDITION can do so in the knowledge that they are experiencing class-leading performance with state-of-the-art WP Suspension, high-end brakes and minimal weight. The 2021 KTM 50 SX FACTORY EDITION boasts several upgrades with reworked jetting, a smaller rear sprocket and a revised clutch springs configuration for easier operation. A new aesthetic means a FACTORY EDITION graphics package, orange/black chain guard, CNC machined clutch and ignition covers, grey grips and a blue seat to enhance that ‘works’ bike appeal. An FMF exhaust system also denotes the bike’s status as an unmissable front-runner on the track.

The high performance 2-stroke engine is extremely compact and powerful, setting the standard in the highly competitive 50 cc class. Its 3-shaft design positions the crankshaft very close to the center of gravity, offering exceptional handling. This design provides a flow-optimized intake angle into the reed valve, which results in impressive performance across the rpm range. Orange anodized CNC machined aluminum clutch and ignition covers provide excellent heat dissipation, durability and, of course, highlight this machine’s racing DNA. The multidisc automatic clutch developed by KTM provides controllable acceleration and makes riding this motorcycle as easy as twisting the throttle. The KTM 50 SX FACTORY EDITION features a special clutch configuration for enhanced power delivery, combining extremely agile handling with maximum performance. The clutch can also be easily adjusted to the rider’s personal needs or the specific requirements of each individual track within minutes and with no special tools required. A reworked carburetor setting in conjunction with the new engine set up works together with a smaller rear sprocket which makes the bike even faster.

The modern frame is made of lightweight, high strength chromium molybdenum steel sections. It combines maximum longitudinal stiffness and optimized torsional rigidity. It offers superb handling and precise cornering, in addition to outstanding stability.

The KTM 50 SX FACTORY EDITION uses a perfectly shaped tapered handlebar made from a high-quality aluminum alloy. It provides a great feeling of control and comfort while little shredders are performing all out. Additionally, the bike comes with new grey ODI lock-on grips , which include a vulcanized grip on the right side and a lock-on grip on the left that does not require glue or wire for mounting. The grips diameter is 5 smaller than before fitting perfectly the smaller hands of the young racers.

The 2021 KTM 50 SX FACTORY EDITION features special in-mold graphics that clearly emulate the full-sized Factory Race machines. It has a fast, aggressive style that screams READY TO RACE, leaving no doubt as to the bike’s high-performance intentions. The blue gripper seat perfectly matches the blue touches in the graphics and adds another Factory touch.

All SX-F models feature a capable, super lightweight 2 Ah Lithium-Ion starter battery, ensuring quick and effective starting of the engine, especially in cold weather conditions. The voltage regulator and condenser, as well as all the electrical components are packaged in a common area below the seat, making the entire system compact and reliable.
