Title: MXA: KTM Developing FI (250SX test)

Notes: KTM has a fuel-injected two-stroke engine in the works, but surprisingly they claim that they will release it as an offroad model before putting it on the motocross models. Because of environmental regulations, the enduro line must run cleaner than closed-course motocross machines, which is why KTM fuel-injected the 2012 450EXC, but not the 450SXF.

Some one is selling a fuel injected Ossa TR280 on the U.S. Ebay site.

Every MXA test rider raved about how accurate it was in the corners. Test riders could go wherever they wanted�??and places they could never get to on a four-stroke.
