Frame
Specifically engineered for longitudinal rigidity, the 2025 KTM 300 XC-W FACTORY EDITION is engineered around a gloss-orange powder-coated frame providing exceptional rider feedback, energy absorption, and high-speed stability. This is achieved by repositioning the rotating masses in the frame along with a forged steering head connection. The footrest mounts also feature a slim design for less risk of hooking up. And when the ride comes to an end, a forged one-piece side stand ensures your enduro weapon stands proud. |
Subframe
An ultra-light lightweight subframe takes charge at the rear of the main frame, featuring a 2-part polyamide and reinforced aluminum construction. With the help of computational dynamics, a specific rigidity was engineered into the subframe, to deliver outstanding handling and rider feedback. This compact subframe design also boasts the the ability to bend and flex in the event of a crash, rather than break, with the subframe fully integrating electronic components, without any extra need for brackets, holders, or unnecessary fixtures. |
WP XPLOR PRO COMPONENTS Fork
The 48 mm XPLOR PRO 7548 fork fitted as standard exclusively on the KTM 300 XC-W FACTORY EDITION represents the pinnacle of enduro suspension, adding a new layer of comfort and adjustability. Tailor-made peak performance and compromise-free offroad dynamics come thanks to WP CONE VALVE technology, with the cone-shaped valve requiring no shim stacks to deliver unmatched damping control and direct response on any terrain. Full adjustability of both compression and rebound damping and spring pre-load is made easy with the provided adjustment tools. |
WP XPLOR Shock
Remaining a hallmark of KTM Enduro weaponry, an PDS rear shock concept improves the anti-squat behaviors of the chassis. This remains the most reliable and maintenance-friendly option for competitive enduro racing. Moreover, a lightweight WP XPLOR PDS rear shock takes charge at the rear. For 2025 the rear shock receives updated settings, resulting in improved pressure balance within the shock. With consistent damping, as well as full adjustability thanks to easy-to-use hand clickers for adjustments on the fly, it remains the setup to beat. |
Wheels and Tires
The KTM 300 XC-W FACTORY EDITION rolls on a full-factory wheel set made up of high-strength black D.I.D alloy wheels coupled to orange-anodized CNC-machined hubs, black spokes, and orange aluminum nipples. These are wrapped in a set of ultra-grippy Dunlop AT82 Enduro tires providing exceptional traction in all conditions. |
Brakes
Slowing the KTM 300 XC-W FACTORY EDITION comes courtesy of a floating front brake disc and solid brake disc on the rear, providing increased pad life and heat dissipation. The rear brake lever is also safety wired directly from the factory. Both ends also get brake protection as standard, with a composite front brake disc guard and orange anodized rear disc guard as standard. |
