KTM 450 SX-F FACTORY EDITION 2026 – READY TO RACE factory performance
The KTM 450 SX-F FACTORY EDITION 2026 is a limited-edition motorcycle designed to bring READY TO RACE performance to the highest level. With factory upgrades taken directly from the KTM Factory Racing team, this dirt bike redefines motocross standards, delivering precision, control and speed in every corner and over every jump.
The 2026 model features a WP XACT PRO 7548 front fork and WP XACT PRO 8950 rear shock, providing top-level, fully adjustable suspension with extremely precise response and exceptional stability. The closed-cartridge front fork optimizes damping and reduces friction, while the rear shock uses Supertrax technology for maximum traction and comfort on rough terrain.
The 449.9 cm³ SOHC single-cylinder 4-stroke engine delivers maximum power in a compact package of only 26.8 kg, offering rapid acceleration and full control on the track. The Akrapovič Slip-On titanium exhaust complies with the 109 dB noise limit and completes the high-performance design.
The KTM 450 SX-F FACTORY EDITION 2026 is equipped with an updated frame, bi-composite frame protectors and engine mounts with dedicated cut-outs for optimal flex and reduced weight. The bodywork efficiently channels air towards the radiators, while the fuel tank shape provides a comfortable and stable riding position, especially when standing on the pegs.
