MOTOR
Everything about the ES 350 motor is all new for 2024. Making the already awesome motor even better, our engineers have refined all major components to maximise power and torque. It even helps to improve handling as it's positioned inside the frame tilting backwards slightly, to help centralize mass. |
CYLINDER & PISTON
Engineered for performance, the cylinder and bridged-box-type CP piston combine to create impressive torque and peak power. And with both components professionally engineered from high strength aluminum, you can be assured that reliability is never in question. |
CYLINDER HEAD
For 2024, the ES 350 features a revised DOHC cylinder head with a layout that's meticulously engineered to deliver performance and reliability. Internally, the finger followers are treated with a Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating for minimal friction, which together with the redesigned camshaft, produces an incredibly broad spread of power. |
COUNTER BALANCER SHAFT
The ES 350 motor uses a compact, multifunctional counter balancer shaft to counteract the rotational force of the crankshaft. Reducing any unwanted vibrations, it also drives the water pump and timing chain. |
TRANSMISSION
A new, enduro-specific, 6-speed wide-ratio Pankl Racing Systems transmission is super durable and reliable, and allows you to take on both the slowest and fastest types of terrain in total confidence. The transmission is now even easier to shift thanks to a few refinements to the shifting mechanism while a new gear lever prevents dirt from building up. |
CRANKSHAFT
Buried deep inside the ES 350 motor, the crankshaft is key to driving the extremely high-speed moving parts inside the engine, which in turn unleash the motor's unrivalled power. Additionally, thanks to an oil feed that ensures enhanced engine durability, the ES 350 offers long, 135-hour crankshaft service intervals. |
CRANKCASE
Low in weight and super-strong, the crankcases have a thin-wall design, which is made possible by using a high-pressure die cast production process. Within the crankcases, all moving parts are positioned to centralize mass. This plays a big role in making this bike a blast to ride! |
DDS CLUTCH
Using a compact design to deliver better action and improved durability, the EC 500F uses a Dampened Diaphragm Steel (DDS) clutch, together with a hydraulic Braktec system. Ensuring riders have total control at all times, a single diaphragm steel pressure plate is used instead of traditional coil springs, which together with a damping system delivers better traction and durability. |
