KTM 50SX, 2012

 
 
KTM 50SX, 2012

Features and Benefits
New for 2012:
  •  New 35 mm USD front fork made by WP (205 mm travel)
  •  New triple clamps
  •  New front axle (15 instead of 12 mm)
  •  Larger radiators
  •  New handlebars made by Renthal
  •  New full-size throttle grip
  •  New 2-component handlebar grips
  •  New wheels with aluminum spoke nipples
  •  New graphics
 Frame and suspension components
The chassis on the 50 SX is equipped exclusively with high-quality components — from the sturdy chrome-molybdenum steel frame to the newly developed WP upside-down fork. The torsionally, extremely stiff 1.38 in telescopic fork with new, forged triple clamps and 7.28 in suspension travel provides perceptibly better ride stability and more comfortable suspension.

Brakes
High-quality, hydraulically actuated disc brakes, with wave type brake rotors at the front and rear.

Renthal handlebars
High-quality, aluminum alloy Renthal handlebars designed specifically for the 50 SX contribute to the ergonomic package for optimum control. Power is now even more controllable with the new Domino throttle grip. The new, dual-compound rubber grips on the handlebar provide a secure hold for the hands, with the cross bar bearing a crash pad should you need one.

Water cooling
The liquid-cooling system of the 50 SX, with two large radiators and additional cooling for the crankcase, prevents the engine from overheating, even under the most extreme loads. Besides that, the smallest KTM can still take a fair bit of punishment from bike-to-bike contact or contact with the ground.

Frame and suspension components
The chassis on the 50 SX is equipped exclusively with high-quality components — from the sturdy chrome-molybdenum steel frame to the torsionally stiff, multiple-adjustment WP upside-down telescopic fork with forged triple clamps, 1.38 in outer tubes and 7.28 in suspension travel.

Brakes
High-quality, hydraulically actuated disc brakes, with wave type brake rotors at the front and rear.
