Engineered by KTM for the enduro - offroad motorcycle segment, the 2014 KTM 250 XCF-W pairs a 249.9 cc (15.3 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 78.0 x 52.3 mm (3.1 x 2.1 inches).
On the scales, the 250 XCF-W measures 105.5 kg (233 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 970 mm (38.2 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,482 mm (58.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 10-liter (2.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
