First look at the 2026 full-fat KTM 350 XC-F Factory Edition, the Grand National Cross Country (GNCC) winning replica off-road machine for the North American market.

With development directly from the FMF KTM Factory Racing GNCC programme, the KTM 350 XC-F Factory Edition is the latest in a line of factory replicas and special edition models.

For 2026, the KTM 350 XC-F Factory Edition primarily for the North American market features the same updates as the 2026 standard XC-F models but with a heap of meaningful extras for cross-country and off-road riders.

This factory edition carries the FMF KTM Factory Racing-inspired graphics and FMF muffler for the look and sound of the bikes Johnny Girroir and Ben Kelley put on top of the GNCC podiums.

Highlights on this 350cc, six-speed off-road model include the WP XACT Closed Cartridge spring forks and a WP XACT rear shock, KTM’s Connectivity Unit Offroad (CUO) fitted as standard which lets you use the KTMconnect app for tuning and data functionality.

Adjustable triple clamps are an exclusive addition as is the integrated GPS sensor mounted on the upper right fork leg between the lower and upper triple clamp and for more advanced customisation and adjustment.
