Review

The 2016 KTM 125 EXC Six Days is a lightweight enduro motorcycle designed for off-road adventures. Building upon KTM's legacy in the off-road segment, this model represents a specific iteration tailored for challenging terrains. It competes directly with bikes like the Yamaha WR125R, offering a different take on the small-displacement enduro experience.

At the heart of the 125 EXC Six Days lies a 124.8 ccm (7.62 cubic inches) single-cylinder two-stroke engine, providing a responsive power delivery suitable for navigating technical trails. The motorcycle has a dry weight of 94.0 kg (207.2 pounds), contributing to its agility and maneuverability. The fuel tank holds 9.50 litres (2.51 US gallons), allowing for decent range during off-road excursions. The seat height sits at 960 mm (37.8 inches) in its lowest setting, which may pose a challenge for shorter riders but contributes to ample ground clearance.

The riding experience of the 125 EXC Six Days is focused on off-road control and responsiveness. Its lightweight nature makes it easy to flick through tight corners and navigate challenging obstacles. The relatively high seat height, at 960 mm, is common for enduro bikes, allowing riders to effectively use their legs for balance and control. While not designed for long-distance comfort, the focus is on providing the rider with the necessary feedback and responsiveness to tackle difficult terrain.

The KTM 125 EXC Six Days 2016 is aimed at experienced off-road riders and those looking to develop their skills in the enduro discipline. It's a specialized machine built for a specific purpose, and its strengths lie in its agility and responsiveness on challenging trails. While not a versatile all-rounder, its focused design makes it a capable and enjoyable choice for riders who prioritize off-road performance in a lightweight package.
