2027 KTM 450 SX-F THE TOP OF THE FOODCHAIN Still the reference. AMA Supercross wins and titles. MXGP wins and titles and history. What's the next chapter? Write it. Beat the best and rule the rest with the only standard. Before The Gate LESS FOCUS ON THE TOOL, MORE FOCUS ON THE TRACK Serviceability The KTM SX and SX-F range is engineered and designed to provide riders with easy-to-access service parts, as well as suspension adjustability. This permits faster trackside and off-season maintenance, as well as simplifying motocross for novice riders without pit crews. For 2026, a new threaded radiator cap allows easier and faster opening with reduced force. CLICK INTO ACTION Easy Suspension Adjustment As always, the suspension boasts an easy tool-free setup at both ends, ensuring you chase down the podium in total control. On the rear, a hand-adjustable dual compression option allows riders to adjust high- and low-speed settings in a matter of seconds. The forks on the front end are also easily modified thanks to hand-adjustable clickers on the bottom of the fork shoe and top cap. BREATHE EASY Airbox Designed to provide maximum airflow, the air filter box is designed with precisely positioned inlet ducts aimed at preventing air deformation and maintaining filter protection. The Twin Air filter and air filter support design feature a simple fail-proof mounting system for safe and accurate filter installation, ensuring the air filter is easily accessed, without tools, by removing the left side panel, for easy track-side maintenance. A vented air filter box cover is also included for all SX and SX-F models in the by-pack. Start Strong TOTAL TRACTION Selectable Maps + TC The map select switch on the KTM KTM SX-F models features a simple design, allowing for easier functionality in switching between 2 engine maps. Map 1 provides a more linear power curve. while map 2 punches all-out with aggressive throttle and explosive power. Luckily, traction control is easy toggled to an on or off position from the same switch, ensuring maximum traction and a distinct advantage in wet or muddy conditions. UNMATCHED PERFORMANCE More Usable Power When the gate drops you need to be the first to off the line in a bid to rule (and make) the roost. The KTM 450 SX-F boasts one of the strongest and most versatile 4-stroke powerplants in the paddock, with its SOHC engine proving to be the perfect example of advanced engineering. With a peak power output, and an overall engine weight of only 59 lb (26.8 kg), you'll leave the competition with more than a little mud on the face. DROP THE CLUTCH Launch Control & Quickshifter Launch control, ENGAGED! Designed for the holeshot, the KTM SX-F range comes standard with launch control and Quickshifter function, allowing for fast upshifts without using the clutch. Launch control is easily engaged by pressing the traction control and Quickshifter buttons simultaneously and works by limiting the amount of power to the rear wheel, improving traction, and preventing loss of control under hard acceleration. Meanwhile, the Quickshifter function means you can bang through from 2nd to 5th gear with your focus solely on the first corner. Calm Under Fire UNMATCHED PERFORMANCE Performance The KTM SX-F engine is tilted 2° backward, this means greatly improved mass centralization and reduced overall weight, benefiting handling and anti-squat behavior. A silencer offers an improved response in combination with the mapping switch and provides a slightly quieter exhaust note. SLEEKER FOR YOU TO SCRUB CLEANER Absolute Control Get ready for a full-on berm assault. The KTM SX and SX-F machines feature revised frame updates developed with input from KTM Factory Racing. For starters, the area around the rear shock mount is streamlined, with optimized engine mounts and cut-outs for improved chassis flex. The front area of the frame features optimized wall thickness with updated engine mounts. FLUID RIDER MOTION Ergonomics Tank shrouds using bi-compound plastics channel air towards the radiators more efficiently, while a concise fuel tank roll, makes for a tighter, more secure fitment, reducing the chance of frame scrubbing and dramatically improving durability. All this works alongside the specially-developed rider triangle, to provide unmatched knee contact and gripping surfaces - especially when standing on the pegs. Hit The Big Stuff WELCOME TO NEXT LEVEL MOTO Connectivity Unit Offroad Available as a PowerPart on the KTM SX-F range, the Connectivity Unit Offroad - or CUO for short - offers a wide range of functionalities and adjustability options via the KTMconnect app. The CUO gives you a new insight into your riding, allows you to alter your engine behavior, and even provides you with optimized suspension settings based on individual preferences and riding conditions.
