KTM 500 EXC-F был представлен в 2012 году как флагманский автомобиль для эндуро, возродивший класс четырехтактных двигателей объемом 500 куб. см для соревнований по бездорожью после долгого отсутствия. Созданный на базе высокопроизводительного одноцилиндрового двигателя, заимствованного из родословной KTM для мотокросса, он быстро завоевал репутацию одного из самых мощных эндуро-байков, доступных для использования на улицах. Он постоянно совершенствуется, обновляя системы впрыска топлива (выпущенные в 2017 году), усовершенствуя шасси и электронику, что укрепило его репутацию любимого автомобиля для любителей активного эндуро и экстремального бездорожья по всему миру.

Что следует знать покупателям
Electric Start Advantage
The 500 EXC-F features a reliable electric start system that sets it apart from most dirt bikes in its class. This makes it far more practical for trail riding where a stalled engine mid-hill is a real concern.
Watch the Valves
Valve clearance checks are critical on this high-performance single-cylinder engine and are often neglected by previous owners. Always verify service history and budget for a valve inspection if records are missing.
Strong Resale Value
KTM 500 EXC-F models hold their value exceptionally well due to high demand and limited supply, often selling for 80-90% of retail even after several years. Buying used still commands a premium compared to competing brands.

Отзыв покупателя б/у
"The ultimate dual-sport weapon for experienced, mechanically committed riders only."
$7,500-$11,500 usedThe 500 EXC-F is basically a race bike with a licence plate bolted on, and you need to walk into a used purchase knowing exactly that. The WP suspension is exceptional but demands proper setup for your weight — previous owners rarely bother, so budget for a respring and revalve immediately. Check the hours on the engine religiously; these motors are bulletproof when maintained but turn fragile fast when neglected. Look for service records, fresh coolant, and a valve clearance history. Riding one hard-enduro style or on single-track is an absolute revelation — nothing at this weight moves this well. But the power delivery is savage enough that newer off-road riders will get bucked regularly. Street-legal doesn't mean street-comfortable; the seat is punishment after 30 minutes of tarmac. Consumables burn through fast — rear tyres, chains, sprockets. This is a high-maintenance relationship that rewards obsessive owners with genuinely incredible capability.
