Ktm Enduro 500 Exc

The Ktm Enduro 500 Exc has a top speed of 175 km/h (estimated; note: not optimized for top speed, gearing is off-road biased), produces 65 hp and weighs 108 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.8/10.

KTM 500 EXC는 배기량이 많은 오프로드 엔듀로 모터사이클로, KTM이 세련된 510cc (500으로 판매) SOHC 단일 실린더 엔진을 사용하여 현대식 4행정 패키지로 500cc 2행정 시대 컨셉을 부활시킨 후 2012년에 다시 출시되었습니다.강력하면서도 다루기 쉬운 엔진, 가벼운 섀시, 많은 시장에서 도로에서 사용할 수 있는 성능으로 인해 이 모델은 시장에서 가장 인기 있는 듀얼 스포츠 및 엔듀로 머신 중 하나로 빠르게 자리 잡았습니다.수년에 걸쳐 연료 분사 (EXC-F 500 라인), 개선된 서스펜션, 전자 장치 등 지속적인 업데이트를 받으며 오픈 클래스 엔듀로 부문의 벤치마크로 명성을 공고히 했습니다.

Strong Resale Value

The 500 EXC holds its value exceptionally well compared to competitors, often retaining 70-80% of its value after two years. Demand stays high due to its dual-sport versatility and loyal KTM fanbase.

⚠️

Watch the Valves

Valve clearance checks are critical on the 500 EXC and are often neglected by previous owners, leading to costly repairs. Always verify valve service history before buying used.

🏍️

Street-Legal Powerhouse

The 500 EXC is one of the most powerful street-legal single-cylinder motorcycles available, producing around 63 horsepower in a lightweight 105 kg package. This makes it uniquely capable for both road commuting and serious off-road riding.

최적 대상
Experienced dual-sport riders wanting genuine off-road performance

"An exceptional machine that punishes neglectful previous owners — and their buyers."

$6,500-$10,500 used

The 500 EXC is KTM's big-bore enduro weapon, and used examples are everywhere right now — which tells you something about how hard owners push them. That LC4-derived single thumps out serious torque and will genuinely embarrass trail bikes twice its price, but these engines drink oil and the WP suspension needs constant attention to stay dialed in. Buy one that's been serviced properly and it's brilliant. Buy a neglected example and you're funding someone else's rebuild. Checking used ones, look hard at the airbox and filter — dusty neglect kills these motors fast. The six-speed gearbox is slick when healthy but develops a notchy first-to-second shift when worn. Hour meters rarely tell the full story; focus on the PDS shock condition and whether the header pipe is heat-blued from lean running. Pre-2017 models had intermittent fuel mapping issues that proper tuning typically sorted. Run well, this is one of the most capable dual-sport machines money can buy. Run hard and ignored, it's an expensive lesson.
