Description
Click here for an CycleVIN Motorcycle History Report on this 2013 KTM 250 SX-F. Additional photos are available here for your perusal.
Since 2005, KTM has lead the charge in the 4-stroke dirtbike market, consistently advancing the segment by way of its distinctive design choices and revolutionary performance innovations.
In keeping with the trend, KTM’s 2013 250 SX-F was no different; it boasted many features that were otherwise not available for the 250 class. For instance, the Austrian brand updated their signature “Keihin engine management system.” In practice, this meant that the new 44mm throttle body port allowed for increased air flow, while the updated head’s twin overhead camshafts and DLC-coated cam followers bumped the rev range from 13,400/min up to 14,000/min.
What’s more, KTM looked to save weight with the 250 SX-F in whatever way possible. So, along with ditching the bulk of the kickstarter in favor of an electric-only start, they also manufactured the engine through a new die-casting process — rather than the usual sand-casting — allowing for significantly thinner (and thus lighter) casing walls.
In the words of Motocross Action Mag: “The 250SXF will hit any corner on a track. The bike sticks like glue, even on hardpack flat turns. It’s confidence inspiring.”
This example is VIN: VBKMXJ438DM191719. The seller is the 3rd owner, he reports that “both the first owner and myself barely used the bike. The second owner meticulously maintained this bike for trail riding with his son who has since gone away to college.”
Because there is no odometer, true mileage is unknown. The seller estimates that there are approximately 25-50 hours on the bike.
Maintenance:
The seller reports that he has replaced the battery, chain and sprockets, and the air filter.
Modifications:
Acerbis handguards.
Upgraded KTM levers.
Aftermarket rear sprocket.
Pro Moto Billet Fastway side stand.

Inside of the tank:
It is riding on Dunlop Geomax MX52 (rear) and Dunlop Geomax AT81 (front) tires with date codes of 4118 and 2621, respectively. The seller notes that the front tire has just two rides on it.
The sale includes a the owner’s binder and the stock rear link, as well as a Pro Circuit spark arrestor, an air filter, a set of spare handguards, a battery and some oil filters.
