About the 450 SMR

The championship-winning engine from KTM’s motocross and supercross machines has been adjusted and modified for optimum Supermoto use. The motor weighs just 27 kg but growls with torque and bites hard with 63 hp. 

The power curve is explored and exploited by the Pankl Racing Systems 5-speed gearbox. That benefits from a sensor that permits specific engine maps for each gear. 

A 44 mm Keihin throttle is key to the sensitive and confidence-inspiring way to summon most of the KTM 450 SMR powerplant.

 The 16 mm offset geometry brings a natural. And attackable sensation through the CNC-machined triple clamps with a three-way amendable handlebar.

Supermoto is about living on the limits of adhesion. KTM has equipped the bike with a long list of premium quality parts to make the most of this thrilling vibe.
