2025 KTM 350XCF vs Stark Varg: Gas vs Electric Back to Back on Woods Loop

Stark Varg vs 2025 KTM 350XCF Back to Back on a short woods loop. Gas vs Electric! Back to back rides are a great way to understand the characteristics of different bikes.

Stark Varg Laptime: 2:54.7
No clutch, no shifting, barely any noise, no heat, multiple maps from 10hp to 80hp...just throttle and brakes. The Stark Varg is very easy to ride and very easy to like! The chassis is firm and the KYB suspension has a lot of damping to keep the 260lb Varg under control. Cornering is impressive and the Varg changes direction so easily. Without a clutch still need at least 40~45hp setting to be able to easily lift the front wheel over obstacles with throttle only.

KTM 350XCF Laptime: 2:42.9
The '25 KTM 350XCF is such a great combination of Power/Weight/Handling. The engine makes strong linear power that is easy to ride and perhaps more importantly fun to ride. The updated '25 model year chassis is more compliant and a great combination of cornering and stability. The stock suspension is very adjustable and works great (especially the all new WP spring forks). However the WP Pro Components cone valve spring forks and TRAXX rear shock (tuned by Brad at RideWorx) take the 25 350XCF chassis to a new level of plushness, bump absorption, and control. This is a VERY fun bike to ride!

The 350XCF easily wins this back to back with a 11.8 sec advantage in lap time!!! Gas or electric...each a very different experience yet both very fun to ride! Which would you choose?
