When the road ends, Offroad Mode transforms the riding experience, allowing controlled rear-wheel slip for tackling tricky conditions. Paired with Offroad ABS, riders can confidently lock up the rear wheel to slide into corners and navigate technical sections with ease. The best part? Offroad settings remain active even after stalling or switching the bike off, so you’re always ready to ride.

A new gearbox and optimised cylinder head refine power delivery, while a 14-litre fuel tank offers impressive range, making it easy to venture deep into the wilderness without worrying about refuelling.

Every new KTM* comes with a standard manufacturer’s warranty, but the Premium Manufacturer’s Warranty takes things further, offering hassle-free extended coverage—completely free—on eligible models. Covering all new 2023, 2024, and 2025 KTM Street and Travel motorcycles with LC8 or LC8c engines, this warranty applies to bikes ranging from the KTM 790 Duke to the powerhouse KTM 1390 Super Duke R EVO.

This means whether you’re tearing through city streets, carving mountain passes or tackling epic long-haul adventures, KTM has you covered.

Worldwide Coverage, No Strings Attached

The Premium Manufacturer’s Warranty is a global policy, meaning KTM owners can roam far and wide with full confidence. Even better, the warranty is attached to the motorcycle, not the rider.

The only requirement? Stick to KTM’s service schedule by booking your regular servicing with an authorised KTM dealer. Keep your bike in top condition, and your warranty stays valid—up to four years of complete coverage.

Rider-Focused, Hassle-Free Protection

KTM understands that riders want to spend more time on the road and less time dealing with paperwork. That’s why the Premium Manufacturer’s Warranty is designed to be as simple as possible. Just service your bike as scheduled at an authorised KTM dealer, and KTM takes care of the rest.

“Every KTM motorcycle that leaves our factory comes with the promise of quality and excitement for both new and regular customers,” says Spela Kovacic, VP Global Customer Service. “To offer extra protection against any-and-all eventualities, we’ve added a Premium Manufacturer’s Warranty, ramping up the value for our customers. This warranty is designed to be hassle-free, with all paperwork handled by us. We believe riders will appreciate the benefits of this scheme and continue to enjoy their KTM experience on the road.”

KTM has raised the bar once again with the launch of the 2025 KTM SX-F Factory Edition models. These bikes bring the spirit of professional racing straight to the track, delivering a premium experience inspired by the Red Bull KTM Factory Racing team and their star riders Chase Sexton (#4), Aaron Plessinger (#7), and Tom Vialle (#1). Whether you’re chasing your own podium or looking to dominate your local track, these Factory Editions offer the ultimate edge.

Closest to the Pros

The 2025 KTM 450 SX-F Factory Edition and 250 SX-F Factory Edition are based on the same technical platform that has powered KTM to countless world championships, AMA Supercross titles, and Grand Prix victories. Designed with precision and packed with upgrades, these bikes are as close as it gets to the machines raced by KTM’s pros.

Each model features a brand-new race trim and graphics package for the 2025 AMA Supercross and Motocross season, allowing fans to select their favourite rider’s number. Whether you’re drawn to Sexton’s precision, Plessinger’s grit, or Vialle’s flair, you’ll ride like a champion.

Performance Without Limits

At the heart of both Factory Editions are lightweight, mass-centralised single-cylinder engines. The advanced design of the cylinder, head, piston, and crankshaft delivers smooth, reliable power, while extended service intervals ensure you spend more time riding and less time maintaining. The engines are paired with Pankl Racing 5-speed gearboxes, featuring a quickshifter for seamless upshifts.

The Akrapovič slip-on muffler enhances performance and gives the bikes a signature factory sound. With an optimised 44 mm Keihin throttle body, refined EMS, and engine mapping options (including traction control and launch control), you’ll have the tools to take on any competition.

Precision Handling

The hydro-formed, laser-cut, and robot-welded steel frame offers a perfect balance of torsional and longitudinal flex for unmatched cornering feedback and stability. KTM’s anti-squat chassis concept ensures precise handling under acceleration and braking. Paired with a lightweight aluminium subframe, the bikes are both agile and durable, ready to handle the toughest tracks.

The WP XACT Suspension system takes performance to the next level. The fully adjustable 48 mm AER split air forks and 300 mm rear shock deliver comfort, control, and higher ground clearance. Adjustments are quick and easy thanks to tool-free integrated clickers, allowing you to tailor the suspension to your style and conditions.

Built to Compete

The Factory Editions are loaded with premium components designed to give you an edge on the track. These include:

• Brembo brakes and clutch for ultimate stopping power and control
• Dunlop GeoMax MX34 tyres for maximum traction across varied terrain

At the rear, the WP APEX shock absorber offers 200 mm of suspension travel, a rebound damping adjuster, and a convenient hand adjuster for spring preload. These features make adapting to different loads or trail conditions quick and effortless, ensuring you stay comfortable and in control on every adventure.

KTM has once again pushed the boundaries of motorcycle innovation with the introduction of its Automated Manual Transmission (AMT). Blending the precision of manual control with the convenience of automation, AMT is set to redefine the riding experience, delivering KTM’s trademark READY TO RACE performance alongside unparalleled usability.

The Best of Both Worlds

At its core, the AMT system gives riders the flexibility to switch between Manual Mode (M) and Automatic Mode (A). In M Mode, riders can shift gears manually using either the traditional gear lever on the left side of the engine or the paddle shifter on the handlebar switch cube. This ensures the sporty, engaged riding feel KTM fans love, with the precision and agility to conquer any terrain or track.

For those who prefer a more relaxed ride or are navigating challenging conditions, A Mode takes over with a fully automated transmission. Once 1st gear is engaged, the centrifugal clutch seamlessly initiates forward motion, eliminating the need for clutch control. This makes pulling away on a slope, slow-speed manoeuvring, and stopping smoother than ever before. It also means you’ll never have to worry about stalling the engine – a massive advantage for riders of all experience levels.

A Smarter Gearbox

The AMT gearbox takes innovation to the next level with its P – N – 1 – 2 – 3 – 4 – 5 – 6 gear sequence, introducing PARK (P) to prevent unwanted rolling on inclines. Both PARK and NEUTRAL (N) can only be engaged using the paddle shifter, ensuring complete control at all times. To shift into 1st gear, the system requires either the front or rear brake to be applied, adding an extra layer of safety.

Gear shifts are lightning-fast, taking just 50 milliseconds, thanks to an electronically controlled system powered by KTM’s ECU and Transmission Control Unit. An electromechanical shift actuator turns the shift drum with precision, delivering performance on par with traditional setups equipped with Quickshifter+.

Precision Meets Versatility

The AMT is not just about convenience – it’s about adaptability. The system allows riders to configure SHIFTING modes in tandem with KTM’s RIDE modes, creating tailored setups for every riding style and environment. Whether you’re tackling tight city streets, carving through mountain roads, or powering through rugged offroad trails, the AMT delivers seamless performance.

A Game-Changer for All Riders

KTM has engineered the AMT gearbox to retain the proportions and weight of traditional setups, ensuring no compromises in handling or performance. Riders can enjoy the sporty feel KTM is known for, alongside the added benefits of easier starts, smoother low-speed handling, and reduced rider fatigue on long journeys.

A Glimpse into the Future

The AMT system debuted at the Red Bull Erzbergrodeo, where Johnny Aubert piloted a prototype through the demanding Iron Road Prologue, demonstrating its capability in extreme conditions. KTM’s vision for AMT extends beyond this showcase, with the system set to feature on selected upcoming models, with more options planned for the future.

Ready to Shift Gears?

The Automated Manual Transmission represents a new chapter in KTM’s mission to innovate and elevate the riding experience. Combining sport and comfort like never before, AMT ensures that every rider, from seasoned racers to weekend adventurers, can get the most out of their motorcycle.

Stay tuned for updates on KTM’s AMT-equipped models and prepare to experience the future of motorcycling. Contact us today to learn more!
