KTM 450 RALLY REPLICA
The KTM 450 RALLY REPLICA is ready to cater for the racing demands of privateers. Upcoming or more experienced racers alike. To prove the point. We asked KTM 450 RALLY REPLICA rider, Mason Klein. Bradley Cox and Benjamin Melot to share their feedback.
The bike’s superiority comes from a series of state-of-the-art components that accentuate its racing spirit. Chief among those is the advanced WP XACT PRO suspension that provides the ideal mix of acute feel. Traction and consistent performance.
Weight is minimal. And the surge from the 450 cc SOHC single-cylinder engine is refined by the compact Akrapovič exhaust system that also assists the mass centralization.
The engine uses cutting-edge Keihin management, and the ECU maps have been adapted and optimized, allowing ideal power delivery. A Pankl transmission is of the same spec as the one used by Red Bull KTM Factory Racing. And the use of a compact chrome-moly steel frame also comes straight from the race team’s spec.
