Big power, unmatched agility, and truckloads of torque put this championship-winning enduro weapon at the sharp end of any battle. Boasting a lightweight frame, closed-cartridge suspension, and a weapons chest of smart electronics, the 2025 KTM 450 EXC-F CHAMPION EDITION is ready to crown a new winner.
Now available at Lings Powersports, the KTM 450 EXC‑F Champion Edition celebrates KTM’s competition heritage with premium features, race-level performance, and exclusive aesthetic appeal—while remaining a serious enduro tool.
Under its race-grade chassis lies a potent 450 cc liquid-cooled, fuel-injected four-stroke engine. Featuring ride-by-wire throttle, counter-balancer, and selectable engine maps (Standard/Soft), it delivers robust torque and mid-range punch. A six-speed transmission and DDS slipper clutch ensure precise shifting and control in technical terrain.
The bike rides on a lightweight chromoly steel mainframe with a reinforced aluminum subframe. Premium WP XACT long-travel suspension—48 mm closed-cartridge forks and a fully adjustable PDS rear shock—provides 300 mm of travel fore and aft. This setup offers top-tier damping and comfort for long trail days or intense off-road challenges.
Braking performance is ensured by Brembo hydraulic calipers on a 260 mm front disc and 220 mm rear disc, backed by switchable dual-channel ABS that includes a rear-only mode for unassisted trail braking. Rugged skid plate, aluminum handlebar, and handguards protect vital components on rough paths.
Styled with exclusive Champion Edition graphics, the bike features anodized clicker caps, adjustable footpegs, a factory-seat texture, and aluminum tank cap—along with a Champion Edition badge—giving it standout appeal beyond its race-capable performance.
Trail-ready ergonomics include an 875 mm seat, narrow shrouds for rider mobility, and upright handlebars tuned for standing comfort. High-strength plastics and LED lighting round out its durability and versatility for dawn-to-dusk adventure.
With a dry weight optimized for agility and responsive handling, the KTM 450 EXC‑F Champion Edition blends full-size four-stroke strength, rally-inspired refinement, and exclusive styling—built for those who demand elite capability and standout design.
