Even though 250cc two-stroke motocross bikes are losing the battle to 450cc four-strokes, not all manufacturers have given up on them. A prime example is KTM. The Austrian company's 250 SX two-stroke MXer is propelled by a wickedly powerful engine that's asked to push just 208 pounds of bike weight. The 250 sticks with a PDS linkless shock out back and a 48mm WP fork up front. Bodywork is updated to the same slim design as used on the four-strokes. It's easy to see, then, why the 250 SX remains a serious challenger for four-stroke motocross bikes that have an 80-percent displacement advantage.
