While the spotlight has been on Ducati’s triple crown (and residual successes in recent sales), the Austrians have been quietly working on improving their bangin’ rep – and, right in line with the brand’s future goals to crush the competition, a key bike has been refreshed just in time for 2023.

World, meet the all-new, 2023 KTM 450 SX-F.

She’s lighter, she ranks way higher on mass centralization, and she handles like a dream – so let’s dive into the docket of tweaks.

Naturally, KTM’s done their best to get a production beauty as close to competition performance as possible; part of this is the magic that is the 450’s new engine that weighs less than 27kg while still delivering a fantastic 68hp.

Launch control is, of course, a key addition, along with “Quickshifter, two maps, a redesigned airbox, an exhaust system, and a series of other modifications” – all to complement the altered ‘anti-squat’ ergonomics and tweaked engine position.

Adjustable WP suspension, refined from the brand’s successes on the track, ties in the whole package for a cutting-edge Katoomer – perfect for down-and-daring citizens looking to lock in on a medal or three (the Red Bull KTM Factory Racing graphics don’t hurt).
