Racer X Films: Dialed In: 2016 KTM 350 SX-F

In this new Racer X Online feature, David Pingree and the rest of the Racer X test crew will share their own setup tips after logging some time on new models, as well as manufacturer recommended starting points and suggestions. You've seen the introductions of your favorite new bike and hopefully picked one up ... Now let Racer X help you get it dialed in.

Great video, really helped me get my Husqvarna FC350 dialled, set the suspension up exactly as Ping said and it's spot on 👌

[@kevinbrown7556]

I put a ride engineering rear linkage on my 2016 and it made a huge difference in the bike feeling tall in the back...I immediately felt faster in corners and the bike just sat better. Definitely worth the $$$.

[@birdsoup777]

David Pingree is awesome. I just got a 2012 KTM 350 SFX with only 15 hours on it ,and its awesome. I don't know how much power you need ? I ride at milestone mx ,and i was on a 2005 yz 250. I have seen some pretty heavy guys ripping on two stroke 125's. You can have all the power in the world and it wont make you a better rider. It just takes practice, patience, and time to become experienced enough to ride any cc bike to its full potential. I think the most important thing is to make sure you have really good suspension that's set up for you. Good suspension lets you maximize the full capacity of your riding and the full power you can extract from the engine. Great video !

Dream bike.

[@jacobfennpt]

Cool video world be good to see one on the new yz450f 2016

[@ilovelamp61]

It's cool to see that Ping can still haul ass on a bike.

[@jonathanoxlade4252]

+Custos Libertatis i have a urge to pain it black lol it looks ugly as fuck the black frame would look great without the orange colour ewww

[@WMN99]

having issues with the bar raisers and the bar mounts twisting

[@alexnilson3192]

Do you have to turn the bike off in between changing the maps on the 2016?

[@ddel5240]

I know this is an old video, but if anyone is around who remembers, I'd love to know who did these number plate graphics; they are perfect and I want a set!

[@JockeWesterlundMX]

Why isn't it an adjustable triple clamp on the european edition ktm 350 16? I'm a taller guy and would like to have that on my bike stock as well. And I dont want to buy an expensive X-Trig clamp, anyone got an idea of where I can buy the stock adjustable clamp?

[@TheOlem5]

What is the intro music on this video?

[@seanaguinaga]

did you mess with the fork height?

[@xdirtrider31x]

Would you recommend this bike, or the 250 sxf?

[@jaycrowder3070]

another good'n dudes! Rode my buds '16 the other day and yes, the 48t on the back is absolutely the right call. This was on naty terrain but still was a mega improvement over stock.....p.s., KZbin needs to come up with some kind of douche commenter filter to weed out some of these fools....anyway, thanks again for these vids!

[@brianpearce8184]

Id thro some TLD graphics on it and we be dial

[@deandodd1040]

please someone do the math .. it weights 223 plus a tank of gas that weights 15lbs. that is 338..the honda crf 250r is 231lbs full tank. am I missing something?

[@Dsm152]

Hey, quick question for anyone that is willing to give me some advice on something.. I'm currently riding a 08 rm125 which i love and can use all of its power quite easily, however I am looking at getting a 4T now and am considering the new 250sxf or 350sxf. My main concern with the 350 is that its going to be too much power for me and I am going to struggle riding it fast, and also the fact that it is is about 35lbs heavier than my 125. Do you think I should be going towards the 250 or 350? bear in mind im not racing MX, mostly just riding out in the bush and the odd club day. Also i weigh about 140lbs. Thanks!

[@TRD_Nate]

250sxf

[@charliegibson7377]

250

[@NigelNaughton]

RacerX if you give me one I will tell you all about my settings and tips and tricks..Thank you in advance.

[@plumbit111]

Maybe KTM should make it a SX-F 375cc a little more torque but will still rev.!

[@thegoldenwithernikytgw4038]

Song ?

[@Sleepy.Time.]

i want a KTM Sprinter van :P

[@jeanniewright9298]

[@MXJEFF94]

[@austinjohnson4316]

[@tubeyou123863]

+Austin Johnson and what do you ride fuck head a suzuki ha ha alloy framed lump of shit has the gearbox exploded into a milloin peices yet,have you owned a ktm ---no, then shut your fuckin mouth -

[@motoxclay306]

+Austin Johnson been riding all your life but yet you talk shit on review videos.. go out and ride more rather than talking crap, just been on your channel, you need the practise.

[@austinjohnson4316]

I'm sorry.. I love you all

[@Remiiix88]

Yeah I got something to help ktm riders... Buy a honda

[@jakecostello3494]

How is buying a honda gonna help ktm riders? They will forget how to ride because the pieces of shit never start.

[@Remiiix88]

Good come back considering honda bikes have one of the most reliable engines

[@dirtvs.asphalt240]

***** Hondas are really reliable and been proven! 😃

[@jakecostello3494]

I would believe that the XR models are the most reliable but not crf

[@zachchamberlain9736]

jake costello correct. The honda XR are extremely reliable. There is an old '95 XR100 in my garage that hasn't ever had any major maintenance done to it and it still starts first kick. The CRF models on the other hand aren't as reliable. The KTM's are great bikes
