Surprised the 2-stroke XC's are getting the updated frame packages. That was a 2 year run for them!

Looks like TPI only for the W's.

interesting, interesting....

5- speed transmission for the 350 xcf.
Hour-meter is included and mounted to the triple clamps? Neat.
Not sure if I like the plastic color scheme yet. I'll need to see it with a rider. Seems like a mostly white bike that turns orange just at the front.

My 17 has the hour meter mounted to the triple clamp. I am excited for the 19s!

Seemed odd that it said the 350 had only 5 gears and then pointed out that no gear ratios were changed. Typo?

My guess is a typo.
Funny how stoked they seem on their Keihin EFI 4T system [and rightfully so ], but on the XC 250/300 there is no mention of Mikuni carb, only says 38mm flat slide :lol:
The 125/150W will be carb only. Also heard a while back 250/300W would be offered in carb and TPI in NA.
