BUILT FOR ADVENTURE
The KTM 250 Adventure is a compact, powerful, and agile all-rounder which will keep you going long after the paved roads have ended. The machine draws on KTM’s rally experience to ensure it is capable when the terrain gets a little rougher.
Inspired by the race proven frame of the Dakar Racer – the KTM 450 RALLY, the KTM 250 Adventure features an ultra-lightweight, yet extremely stable trellis frame with a bolt on sub-frame which exceeds all requirements for stability and controllability and is the backbone of this nimble adventurer.
A whopping ground clearance of 200mm along with segment leading suspension travel of 170mm on the front and 177mm on the rear makes the KTM 250 Adventure willing to take on any terrain, no holds barred.
The forgiving balance of flex and stiffness, combined with a wheelbase of 1430 (+/-15.5 mm) and a 26.5o steering rake angle, clearly suggest an off-road oriented layout. It is also the basis of the KTM 250 ADVENTURE’s outstanding straight-line stability and precise and agile steering behavior.
With many years of development on the toughest terrain, the KTM 250 Adventure draws on the WP APEX suspension in the front and rear. They work together perfectly with the chassis to provide the clearance, control, and confidence to venture down more challenging terrain where the roads end.
The rider seat is narrow in the front making it easier to reach the ground while providing tested mix of grip and easy movement. The high-end, tapered steel handlebar provides maximum control while ensuring a comfortable riding position. The KTM 250 Adventure’s windshield is an efficient deflector which can be mounted in a lower or higher position to suit the rider’s size or needs. The wide and robust foot pegs come directly from the off-road models.
CLASS LEADING PERFORMANCE:
The KTM 250 Adventure features a powerful, 248 cc state-of-the-art DOHC four-valve single cylinder liquid cooled engine. The power delivery is smooth and confidence-inspiring throughout the powerband which is also sprightly and fun when pushed more. The BOSCH electronic fuel injection in conjunction with a DELL’ORTO 38 mm throttle body system guarantees perfect throttle response while delivering 30 PS (22 kW) power and 24 Nm torque. The technologically advanced Power Assist Slipper Clutch (PASC) combined with the 6-speed gearbox allows for smooth and jerk free shifting by controlling engine braking and rear wheel chatter. The KTM 250 Adventure can be ridden hard or caressed to speed over long distances.
