2026 KTM 450 SMR
ALL OUT APEX ASSAULTThe KTM 450 SMR represents the only real all-aspect form of motorcycle sport. Taking all the best bits from the championship-winning KTM 450 SX-F and adding more asphalt bias like racing slicks, big brakes, and top-notch suspension. Simply put, it's READY TO RACE in the very purest form.
Features may include:
At the startline- 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 control allows riders to adjust high- and low-speed settings in a matter of seconds. The forks on the front end are also easily adjusted thanks to hand-adjustable clickers on the bottom of the fork shoe and top cap.
Start Strong- More Usable Power
The KTM 450 SMR features one of the most exhilarating 4-stroke engines in the paddock, with its SOHC powerplant exemplifying cutting-edge engineering. The silencer offers exceptional response in combination with the mapping switch and provides a slightly quieter exhaust note. For those looking for more, a quick visit to the KTM PowerParts catalog will take things to the next level.
Compossed under pressureThe KTM 450 SMR frame is built for riders who demand sharp handling and full control. Its refined flex characteristics let you carve berms, launch jumps, and tackle technical terrain with confidence. A streamlined rear shock mount boosts stability and traction, while optimized engine mounts and wall thickness ensure a balanced, responsive feel from front to back.
Hit The Big Stuff- WP XACT Fork
Fast and consistent damping characteristics are guaranteed thanks to the mid-valve piston concept which optimizes the oil flow within the cartridge. The WP XACT Close Cartridge fork comes with 48mm of diameter while the total length is 925mm. As always, the fork is fully adjustable in rebound and compression. Hand-adjustable clickers on the bottom of the fork shoe and fork top cap allow riders to change settings on the fly without the need of tools.
Maintaining Momentum- Connectivity Unit Offroad
Available as a PowerPart on the KTM 450 SMR, 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. Welcome to the next level moto.
