Limited edition versions of MX1 & MX2 championship-winning bikes – KTM has released details on two limited edition versions of its 2012 250 & 350 SX-F motocross machines in celebration of once again winning the MX1 and MX2 world championships with Antonio ‘Tony’ Cairoli and Ken Roczen and the bikes will be available from January 2012.
Priced at £7595 and £7895, the ‘Cairoli’ and ‘Roczen’ replicas are built to honour the riders and take the 2012 350 and 250 SX-F machines to the very next level.
More than just a trick graphics set and an orange steel backbone frame, the additional cost over the base models gains an enviable spec list; including Factory triple clamps, black Excel rims and Renthal bars, SXS seat and front brake disc guard and handguards.
Both four-stroke powerplants are protected by a high-tensile aluminium engine guard, feature a CNC-machined clutch cover, have a lightweight Factory start system and an Akrapovic titanium silencer.
Increased performance for the Roczen 250 bike comes via the SXS Performance Kit.
In 2011, Tony Cairoli managed to defend his MX1 World Championship title on the 350 SX-F in his second season as a KTM factory rider.
In total, Cairoli has won no less than 23 heats in two years for KTM.
The 26-year old Italian’s weapon of choice is the revolutionary 350 SX-F, the brainchild of ten-times World Champion and current head of KTM’s MX2 factory team, Stefan Everts.
A fantastic MX bike whose versatility is hard to beat: it combines nearly the power of a 450 with the agility of a 250 – the winning combination in the big boys’ class!In the MX2 class, KTM rookie Ken Roczen picked up where his teammate, Marvin Musquin, left off in 2010.
Winning an impressive 19 heats on the 250 SX-F, the 17-year-old from Mattstedt, Germany, defended KTM’s no.
1 status in the MX2 World Championship to make it four consecutive titles for the Austrian manufacturer’s untouchable 250.
