2024 KTM 450 SX-F

We aren't ones to brag, but with a trophy cabinet ready to rip at the seams, the KTM 450 SX-F is the epitome of a podium hunter. With 5 AMA 450 supercross titles in the last 7 seasons, the KTM 450 SX-F rolls into the pit already armed with the learnings of past championships. It's time to extend the trophy room.

Features may include:

• Easy Suspension Adjustment

Get dialed in! The KTM SX range boasts totally tool-free suspension setup at both ends. Thanks to the shock absorber design featuring hand-adjustable dual compression control, it allows riders to adjust high- and low-speed settings in a matter of seconds. On the front end, the forks are also easily adjusted thanks to a single air pressure preload valve, as well as through easy access click adjusters for compression and rebound. We'll even throw the air pump in as standard.

• More Usable Power

When the war drums sound and the gate drops, you need to be the first off the line in a bid to rule the roost. The KTM 450 SX-F boasts one of the most powerful 4-stroke powerplants in the pits, with its SOHC engine proving to be the perfect example of advanced engineering. With with massive power in a light package, you'll leave the competition with more than a little mud on the face.

• Absolute Control

No matter how gnarly the track is, you'll find complete confidence thanks to the frame design that has not only been engineered for longitudinal rigidity but also repositions rotating mass closer to the center of gravity. The shock mounting also provides improved anti-squat behavior for better traction out of corners, while the footpeg mounting position has moved inwards for less risk of hooking up in deep ruts or when scrubbing jumps.

• Mass Centralization

Ready to rip your arms out of the sockets? Together with the benefits of mass centralization and overall reduced weight, the anti-squat behavior of the chassis is significantly improved by changing the backbone of the steel frame concept. In layman's terms, the KTM 450 SX-F gets its power down perfectly when tearing out of corners.

• Consistency

A WP XACT shock absorber provides unmatched consistency lap after lap, thanks to low-friction SKF linkage seals and advanced damping characteristics for unsurpassed traction and energy absorption.
