Race-Ready Drivetrain

The KTM XC‑W drivetrain is engineered for durability and efficient power transfer in extreme conditions, ensuring consistent drive and traction during clutch-heavy, low-speed riding where maintaining momentum is critical. On the KTM 300 XC-W HARDENDURO, this is complemented by a Supersprox stealth rear sprocket and additional HARDENDURO-specific components such as an orange oil plug and clutch slave cylinder protection, ensuring durability and reliability in the harshest environments.

HARDENDURO Protection Package

Designed for extreme terrain, the KTM 300 XC-W HARDENDURO adds a comprehensive protection setup including a radiator fan, skid plate, frame protection set, and front and rear brake disc guards.
