12/12/2024 – CHASE DOWN UNCHARTED TERRITORY

CHASE DOWN UNCHARTED TERRORITY

WITH THE 2025 KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE R

Be it isolated ice-clad tundras, heavily wooded forests or dried-up riverbeds, the 2025 KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE R is ready to cross borders in search of new, uncharted ground.The KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE R sits at the top of the offroad Adventure food chain and obliterates all challengers, providing off-grid Adventure motorcyclists with the ideal platform to travel beyond the beaten track.

For 2025, the KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE R features an all-new bodywork design, LED lighting, a shorter, more offroad-focused windshield, and more storage binnacles. The 2025 KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE R sees an increase in frame stiffness, improving handling and track stability. A reworked crash bar – fitted as standard – has also been stiffened, with an additional arm towards the engine bracket providing increased protection.

Unlike the KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S and S EVO, the KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE R is fitted with a more traditional suspension set up better suited to hard offroad use, with a 48 mm WP XPLOR split cartridge fork up front and WP XPLOR Progressive Damping System (PDS) shock taking care of duties at the rear end.

Engine displacement is increased from 1,300 to 1,350 cc, producing a staggering 173 Ps at 9,500 rpm and 145 Nm at 8,000 rpm, with all-new CAMSHIFT™ technology providing improved rideability in the low rpm range. This makes for a smoother response when negotiating tight trails.

The innovative CAMSHIFT technology provides variable-valve timing with two individual cam profiles. At higher revs, the inlet cams shift sideways, opening the valves for longer to increase fuel flow into the cylinder head, drastically increasing performance. In the lower rev range, the inlet cams have a reduced valve timing and lift. This technology results in a noticeable increase in rideability at both slower speeds and high-performance use on faster, open roads.

The KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE R also receives KTM’s new premium electronics package, with an all-new eight inch vertical-mounted dashboard featuring inductive technology allowing easy operation – even when wearing thick winter or offroad gloves. The new dashboard also features an innovative Anti-reflex, anti-fingerprint and anti-glare coating which improves overall visibility, as well as giving riders access to new RIDE MODES, built-in Navigation and Connectivity features.

The new 2025 KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE R will be rolling off the Austrian production line in 2025. UK pricing to be confirmed.

10/12/2024 – RIDE LIKE A WINNER

RIDE LIKE A WINNER

WITH THE 2025 KTM 450 SX-F FACTORY EDITION

The 2025 KTM 450 SX-F FACTORY EDITION will soon be rolling into start gates nationwide, poised and ready to leave the competition in its roost. This latest version of KTM’s primed READY TO RACE machinery is the only pure competition-focused high-end option for riders who want and need to go that extra mile, at extra pace.

In true KTM FACTORY EDITION style, the 2025 KTM 450 SX-F FACTORY EDITION boasts the full Red Bull KTM Factory Racing trim in dedication to the two notable 450 riders that will front the team and company’s push in 2025 AMA Supercross and Motocross series: Chase Sexton and Aaron Plessinger.

The 2025 model carries the latest race look and graphics for the new season, with choices between #4 (Sexton) and #7 (Plessinger), making this FACTORY EDITION machine the closest riders and fans can come to the Pros, courtesy of a host of performance and practical upgrades.

The 2025 KTM 450 SX-F FACTORY EDITION is based on the technical platforms and READY TO RACE formula that has won world championships, a 450 MX Pro Motocross Championship, Grands Prix, Main Events and banked a host of podium trophies with a wide range of different athletes and riding styles. The 2025 creation will be the last KTM FACTORY EDITION of this current SX-F generation.

The 2025 machine features a light, compact and advanced single cylinder mass centralised engine. Cylinder, cylinder head, piston and crankshaft development ensure resistant, smooth, torquey and reliable power output with longer service intervals. The motor package includes an Akrapovic slip-on muffler, fully refined EMS and a 44 mm Keihin throttle body, as well as Pankl Racing 5-speed gearbox with quickshifter.

The robot-welded steel frame adheres to precise parameters of longitudinal and torsional flex for exceptional rider feedback, energy absorption, cornering confidence and straight-line stability for acceleration and braking. The structure is light and orientated around the anti-squat concept for a distinctive and effective handling sensation, thanks also to the light aluminum subframe. The chassis benefits from the latest specification fully adjustable WP XACT suspension (48 mm AER split air forks and 300 mm dual-compression control, tool-free rear shock with higher ground clearance to accommocate the linkage). A 7.2 litre fuel tank is incorporated into the carefully crafted rider triangle for ergonomics that permit precise control and grip of the bike in any condition.

26/11/2024 – KTM 890 ADVENTURE R

KTM 890 ADVENTURE R

RETAINS ITS MIDDLEWEIGHT CROWN FOR 2025

With stylish new graphics and Connectivity Unit now fitted as standard, the 2025 KTM 890 ADVENTURE R maintains its reign as the king of the middleweight adventurers.

The KTM 890 ADVENTURE R is a nameplate well-known – and for good reason. Offroad excellence and next-level capability have made it the go-to machine for hardcore Adventure riders.

Taking cues from the Dakar-winning KTM 450 RALLY, the WP suspension package on the 2025 KTM 890 ADVENTURE R features proven hardware at each end, with a WP XPLOR 48mm fork and a WP XPLOR PDS rear shock getting the job done with aplomb.

Also inspired aesthetically by the aforementioned RALLY machine, the KTM 890 ADVENTURE R sports a low-level windscreen, high front fender, rally-style bodywork and enhanced body protection. Rider comfort hasn’t been forgotten, with the offroad-focused single-piece seat simultaneously allowing movement around the bike whilst providing comfort and grip, with a fresh new graphic set stylishly completing the rally-inspired look.

For 2025, the Connectivity Unit is included as standard fitment, enabling connection between the KTMConnect app and the TFT – via Bluetooth – to access the Turn-by-Turn+ navigation, music and incoming call functions.

2025 KTM 890 ADVENTURE R – HIGHLIGHTS

  • Standard Connectivity Unit to enable KTMConnect 
  • KTM 450 RALLY-inspired bodywork with new graphics
  • Offroad-focused, lower windshield
  • Single-piece seat
  • Proven WP XPLOR suspension

  • DEMO MODE functionality

21/11/2024 – A WORLD OF ADVENTURE AWAITS

A WORLD OF ADVENTURE AWAITS

WITH THE NEW 2025 KTM 790 ADVENTURE

The 2025 KTM 790 ADVENTURE supersedes the KTM 890 ADVENTURE, taking its rightful place in the ADVENTURE lineup below the KTM 890 ADVENTURE R, as a more affordable but extremely capable stablemate – with new suspension setting the bar even higher.

Thanks to a slew of upgrades to the previous generation, in 2024, KTM made the KTM 790 ADVENTURE more stable. Reworked throttle bodies brought cleaner and more efficient fuelling, enhanced combustion, and a ‘knock control’ sensor improved capacity for lower octane fuel. The 2024 package included a reworked Power Assist Slipper Clutch with new friction plates and an airbox that ensures improved breathing.

For 2025, the KTM 790 ADVENTURE receives some welcome upgrades, consisting of adjustable 43 mm WP APEX open cartridge front forks and a WP APEX shock absorber taken directly from the KTM 890 ADVENTURE, along with two new dynamic and eye-catching colourways.

Up front, split function technology separates the compression and rebound damping between the two fork legs, with respective adjusters on the top cap of each fork leg. This allows for a more precise set up to suit a wider variety of riding scenarios, both on and offroad. Meanwhile, the adjustable WP APEX shock absorber provides 200 mm of travel and features a rebound damping adjuster, along with a hand adjuster for the spring preload to allow for easy alterations.

The 2025 KTM 790 ADVENTURE also benefits from a wide range of KTM PowerParts, offering protection, performance and personalisation add-ons.

05/11/2024 – GO THE DISTANCE

GO THE DISTANCE

WITH THE NEW 2025 KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE GT

In receiving its boldest transformation yet, the 2025 KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE GT takes another significant leap forward and accelerates further ahead of the chasing pack. THE LONG DISTANCE BEAST just got even more radical, fulfilling its design brief to meet incredible dynamism, taking the Sports Tourer category to exceptional new heights.

Already the most extreme bike in its segment, it has adrenaline rush at its core, boasting class-leading technology, superior handling, and an engine package that is now more powerful and torque-rich than ever before. It’s a refined package that delivers more muscle and aggression than its predecessors.

Now boasting a displacement of 1350 cc and sharing the same LC8 V-twin engine as the 2024 KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE R EVO, performance is further optimised on the 2025 KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE GT, taking this new generation sports tourer to new heights. A centrally positioned ram air intake, a redesigned air box and a wider radiator are just a few enhancements that boost both power and efficiency, taking its capabilities to the next level.

Riders can take full advantage of revised gearing that makes fifth and sixth gears far more effective, resulting in better use of the rpm range – they’re no longer considered to be overdrive gears at moderate speeds, which makes for a more READY TO RACE motorcycle. The goal was clear: to create an exceptionally fast road bike with serious track ambitions, delivering peak performance in every scenario.

The Kiska design team has gone to town on every single angle, developing superior, more compact ergonomics that are beneficial to this machine’s soul purposes: enabling riders to spend long hours in the saddle, whilst being able to unleash its improved performance – whether on tour or on track. An all-new signature LED headlight and simplified brake light with integrated turn signals add to the bike’s bold styling, complete with a lower profile that emphasises its most up to date chassis.

The 2025 KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE GT receives the latest-generation chassis from THE BEAST, the 2024 KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE R EVO. This chassis provides increased torsional stiffness and a lower centre of gravity, offering optimal front tyre feedback for superior control. Stability, combined with agile, sporty handling, has been further refined through the addition of the latest generation WP APEX Semi Active Technology (SAT) suspension front and rear. Comfort Mode has also been heavily revised, improved for those longer days in the saddle. This was a major focus during the development phase and is where riders will notice the biggest difference from the previous generation model. This setup enhances sensitivity and responsiveness, offering greater customisation options for a more dynamic and adaptable riding experience.

Blistering performance requires equally strong stopping power, which is achieved by the proven Brembo systems. Up front, a set of four-piston Stylema monoblock calipers grip 320 mm floating discs, while the rear is equipped with a Brembo twin-piston floating caliper and a 240 mm disc for precise, controlled braking. A new MCS (multi-click-system) front brake lever enables increased adjustability, while Cornering ABS, Supermoto ABS, as well as the new Supermoto+ and Sport ABS modes provide riders with multiple options.

Fitted with lightweight Michelin Power 6 tyres that feature dual compound technology, straight line and cornering grip has been increased. Additionally, a new Tyre Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) with improved functionality allows riders to set a custom pressure for track riding.

A state-of-the-art electronics package has been developed, offering class leading rider aids and a new Ride Mode concept. Its revolutionary 8.8 inch TFT (H88) touchscreen dashboard benefits from a simplified menu structure, while the CCU3.0 also ensures seamless reconnection with your smartphone on every ignition cycle. Further functionality includes Offline Map Navigation, with relevant safety features integrated, operational at the press of a button on the all-new handlebar switch cubes. The full information on the new H88 dashboard can be found HERE.

This high-tech experience extends to the Ride Modes, which have been completely reworked. The standard modes now include Rain, Street, Sport, and an all-new Custom mode. Additionally, there are two optional Custom configurations and an optional Track Mode, enhancing personalisation capabilities. To keep tech levels at an all-time high, a Front Radar has been added, offering features such as Adaptive Cruise Control, Brake Assist, Distance Assist and Group Riding. Demo Mode is also available for the first 1,500 km, allowing customers to sample all the available tech and make an informed decision on which tech pack best suits their needs.

Representing a major step forward in improved street riding character that doesn’t compromise capabilities on the track, the opportunities are endless aboard the 2025 KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE GT. More of a BEAST than ever before, the 2025 KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE GT is poised and prepared to go the distance.

A full selection of KTM PowerParts and KTM PowerWear have also been developed for 2025 KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE GT riders, providing first-class personalisation options purposely crafted to elevate performance and protection, no matter how far or fast the journey.

31/10/2024 – PUNISH THE COMPETITION

PUNISH THE COMPETITION

WITH THE NEW 2025 990 DUKE R

More aggressive, bolder, and built to punish all before it. The 2025 KTM 990 DUKE R sets the new standard in the middleweight Naked bike segment, building upon the existing KTM 990 DUKE platform with added flare. Put simply, its sportier stance and READY TO RACE purpose places it way ahead of the chasing pack. THE PUNISHER is here as the most brutal of all.

KTM celebrated 30 YEARS OF DUKE in 2024 and the latest R model in the line-up arrives with maximum fight at its core. Situated at the pinnacle of its class, increased power, and a more focused intent make the KTM 990 DUKE R the most aggressive middleweight, that guarantees riders the edge on both road and track.

Its white colour trim and graphic, complete with matt black and white accents and an electronic orange gloss powder coated frame, draws inspiration from various heritage models in the previous KTM 990 SUPER DUKE R range – in particular, the second-generation model produced between 2011 and 2013. The ‘R’ on the tank immediately signals its next-level DUKE DNA without compromise.

The premium new generation tech features offer unprecedented electronic functionality. The new 8.88-inch landscape-mounted touchscreen TFT dashboard includes inductive technology and a split-screen mode, enhancing readability and optimising information display. For more in-depth information on the all-new TFT dash, click HERE.

KTM 990 DUKE R riders also benefit from a fresh new switch cube layout, connectivity unit, map navigation system and customisable ride modes, along with the introduction of SPORT ABS and SUPERMOTO+ ABS, for riders who demand limits to be smashed.

In comparison to the KTM 990 DUKE introduced last year, the R version’s 947 cc engine now boasts an additional 7 PS – up from 123 PS to 130 PS – while maintaining 103 Nm of torque and with a 10,500 RPM limit. Its elevated power output is courtesy of improved mapping that truly unleashes the fire-breathing might of the LC8c motor.

Weight has remained the same for a total READY TO RACE weight of 190 kg, complementing the updated ergonomics that result in a slightly higher centre of gravity. Both the seat height and ground clearance are 15 mm higher, which is a result of longer suspension travel and a steeper swingarm angle that allows around three degrees more lean angle when on the attack. The frame and swingarm have also been updated due to the suspension linkage construction at the rear, allowing the rider more mechanical grip for harder riding.

Fully adjustable WP APEX Suspension components are equipped front and rear, boasting the new Open Cartridge fork with 143 mm of travel. With a diameter of 48 mm – increased from 43 mm on the KTM 990 DUKE – it is 34 per cent stiffer, with upgraded settings developed to offer a sportier feel. The bike becomes more planted with better control, without sacrificing agility.

Additionally, the new WP APEX rear shock incorporates upgrades in line with the linkage system, with travel reduced to 140 mm – a ten mm reduction to compensate for the introduction of the linkage. It too has been developed for maximum performance, fitted with a new linear spring keeping things in check for all day attacks on the street or track.

High-performance braking systems, including Brembo Stylema monoblock calipers and a Brembo MCS master cylinder, are utilised at both ends. They feature 320 mm discs (compared to 300 mm on the KTM 990 DUKE), lighter components, and a more precise feel under braking, ensuring dominant performance in all circumstances.

The 2025 KTM 990 DUKE R features Michelin Power Cup 2 tyres that wrap around adapted orange rims carried over from the KTM 1390 SUPER DUKE R model. Its refined technical enhancements make it a formidable mid-capacity naked bike, ready to take on any road or track with a pure READY TO RACE attitude. THE PUNISHER is taking no prisoners in the mid-range battlefield!

A full range of KTM PowerParts and KTM PowerWear has also been developed specifically to suit the KTM Street range, further maximising the potential for riders to customise their bikes.

24/10/2024 – BRING MORE ADVENTURE TO THE STREET

BRING MORE ADVENTURE TO THE STREET

WITH THE NEW 2025 KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S

The 2025 KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S is the most insane Adventure Sports bike available and is made for riders who want more speed, more tech and more punch than ever before.

The ‘S’ has always denoted a street orientation in KTM’s ADVENTURE range. For 2025, this is no different, with the KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S providing Adventure motorcyclists with a flurry of all-new technological and mechanical advancements.

Compared to the range-topping KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S EVO, the S model proudly boasts a traditional clutch and manual gearbox aimed at riders looking for a more “hands-on” approach, with the fifth generation Front Radar available as an optional extra.

For 2025, styling and ergonomics are updated with all-new bodywork design, all-new LED headlight, windshield, and an increased storage compartment. The 2025 KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S frame sees an increase in stiffness, improving handling and track stability, with eight mm lower and 10 mm wider footpeg positioning to improve rider comfort.

Like the KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S EVO, the KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S is fitted with WP’s latest Semi-Active Technology. Tuned to be more precise with consistent damping behaviour at higher frequencies, the SAT uses new PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) sensors and a new through-rod fork construction to achieve refined handling dynamics.

Engine displacement is increased from 1,300 to 1,350 cc, producing 173 PS at 9,500 rpm and 145 Nm at 8,000 rpm, with reworked engine components and all-new CAMSHIFT technology, providing improved rideability in low rpm range, higher peak performance, low emissions and fuel consumption.

The innovative CAMSHIFT technology provides variable-valve timing with two individual cam profiles. At higher revs, the inlet cams shift sideways, opening the valves longer and higher for more gas flow into the cylinder for higher performance, while in the lower rev range, the inlet cams have a reduced valve timing and lift.

NEXT LEVEL CRAZY!

MORE IS MORE – INTRODUCING THE 2025 KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S EVO

Taking the accolade of being the most technologically advanced Adventure machine in the KTM wheelhouse, the 2025 KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S EVO doesn’t only move the goalpost – it simply obliterates the playing field.

The KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S EVO sits at the top of the KTM SUPER ADVENTURE line-up, bringing all-new technological and mechanical advancements to the adventure-motorcycling realm.

Starting at the chassis, the KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S EVO boasts reworked frame stiffness, improving handling and track stability, with eight mm lower and 10 mm wider footpeg positioning to improve rider comfort with a greater knee angle.

The KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S EVO is fitted with the latest generation WP Semi-Active Technology. Compared to the previous generation, the SAT has been tuned to be more precise with consistent damping behaviour at higher frequencies. This was achieved using new PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) sensors and a new through-rod fork construction that combines design borrowed from Open Cartridge and Closed Cartridge suspension elements.

Styling and ergonomics have also been updated for 2025, with new bodywork and seat design, all-new LED headlight, new windshields and storage compartment, to mention a few. However, the mechanical elements under the new skin provide the biggest updates over the previous generation, with the change in engine capacity being the most immediate highlight.

The KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S EVO boasts an increased engine displacement from 1,300 to 1,350 cc, producing 173 PS @ 9,500 rpm and 145 Nm @ 8,000 rpm. This comes courtesy of reworked engine components and all-new CAMSHIFT technology, which provides improved rideability in low rpm range, higher peak performance, low emissions and fuel consumption. At higher revs, the inlet cams shift sideways, opening the valves longer and higher to flood the cylinder with gas, unleashing maximum performance. In the lower rev range, the inlet cams dial back the valve timing and lift, optimising rideability. This dual approach delivers a powerful boost in performance, whether you’re navigating city streets or tearing up faster roads.

This is mated to an all-new Automated Manual Transmission (AMT) – a first for KTM and exclusive to the KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S EVO. First seen as a prototype in the hands of Johnny Aubert on the formidable Iron Road Prologue at the Red Bull Erzbergrodeo, the AMT is one of the most innovative engine developments made by KTM in recent years.

The AMT allows the rider to choose between traditional manual shifting, by way of the foot lever or bar-mounted paddles, or a completely twist-and-go automated transmission, while retaining a full READY TO RACE attitude. To learn more about KTM’S all-new AMT technology, click HERE.

The KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S EVO also receives KTM’s new premium, portrait-mounted, touchscreen V80 TFT dashboard. This brings an entirely new generation of premium electronic and electric architecture and rider usability to the fore.

The eight inch Touchscreen features inductive technology, allowing easy operation even when wearing thick winter gloves, while an innovative anti-reflex, anti-fingerprint and anti-glare coating improves overall readability. Click HERE to read more on the new V80 TFT Dashboard.

Here, riders have access to all new RIDE MODES and Connectivity features, and KTM’s latest Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) which adds Brake Assistance, Collision Warning and Distance Warning to its arsenal. The new ACC system, combined with AMT, features ACC Stop & Go. When activated, this system will bring the motorcycle to a complete stop if the vehicle ahead comes to a hold. Once the vehicle moves, the motorcycle will automatically resume its motion.

All the above comes courtesy of a more compact, fifth-generation front radar sensor made by Bosch and fitted as standard on the KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S EVO. This features performance optimisation, improved truck detection, a higher maximum speed, and updated cancellation thresholds, with Dynamic, Street and Group Ride functionality.

The 2025 KTM 1390 SUPER ADVENTURE S EVO is a powerhouse in both performance and technological advancements, pushing the boundaries of Adventure motorcycling even further.

17/10/2024 – FRESHLY CHARGED FOR 2025

FRESHLY CHARGED FOR 2025

KTM FREERIDE E BRINGS NEW ENERGY TO KTM OFFROAD E-MOBILITY

Ten years after KTM first introduced the electric FREERIDE concept to market, the completely refreshed 2025 KTM FREERIDE E represents the company's next step in its approach to the liberty, practicality and vast potential of offroad e-mobility.
The 2025 KTM FREERIDE E – ridden by hardenduro star Manuel Lettenbichler – marks a significant milestone for KTM, a full decade after the electric KTM FREERIDE E concept was introduced. Lettenbichler’s endorsement of the bike showcases its capability in challenging off-road environments, validating its performance at the highest level of the sport.

KTM treasures the virtues of the platform: the KTM FREERIDE E tackles not only some of the environmental issues with offroading (low emissions, near silent noise, which means it can be ridden almost anywhere) but also the benefits of low maintenance. The all-new KTM FREERIDE E is also the perfect choice for riders seeking trial-like capabilities without the limitations of a traditional trials bike, such as the lack of a seat, short gear ratios and excessive noise. The bike provides the thrill of instant torque and power, and a set-up with both brakes mounted on the handlebars will allow experienced users to work more on their technique and positioning, while being the easiest possible introduction to the awesomeness of riding for newcomers.

Back in 2014, KTM unveiled the KTM FREERIDE E in both Enduro and Motocross forms, followed by a street homologated version for urban commuting and ‘play riding’. A decade later, technology has advanced, hardware is better and lighter, and software has become cleverer. Into this setting comes the latest expression of the KTM FREERIDE E, showing that KTM rigorously believes in the future and possibilities of battery power. The 2025 KTM FREERIDE E is a natural progression from the superb roster of new KTM SX-E minicycles, which form the ideal learning stage for future bikers.

So, what’s new?

KTM’s R&D department has been busy bringing the most exciting interpretation of electric drivetrain technology to the KTM FREERIDE E platform. Boasting 11 kW of nominal output, 19.2 kW peak power, more than 37 Nm of torque, and a top speed of 95 km/h, the engine is a much quieter, cooler, safer unit that is water and dustproof, and fully integrated into the overall character and feel of the motorcycle. Three ride modes (ECO, NORMAL, and SPORT) and three energy recuperation settings (OFF, MID, and HIGH) can be synced to ensure flexibility with the range and power package of the KTM FREERIDE E. Traction control can also be pegged to a certain level to limit or increase wheelspin. More safety considerations come from the ‘rollover sensor’ that cuts the power in the event of a crash.

KTM prioritised nimble and light handling, and developed a new chassis. The geometry has been altered and the wheelbase widened for more stability and comfort. The chassis can remain featherweight and slim by hinging the chrome-molybdenum steel frame on the load-bearing engine and battery architecture. Expect the final ride-ready weight to be less than 112 kg, and the aluminum and glass-fibre reinforced nylon subframe helps in this respect. The KTM FREERIDE E’s seat height is 910 mm.

The 29 kg MX50 Lithium-Ion battery has been tested and proven in the most extreme conditions. It has been constructed in a way that means it is interchangeable, allowing the use of a second pack while the charging process takes place or to increase travel use. The capacity is 5.5 kWh, an improvement of 1.5 kWh compared to the previous KTM FREERIDE E, and 20% more riding time or distance. Battery life can withstand over 1,000 charge cycles before dipping to 80% effectiveness. Typical Enduro riding time is estimated to be between two and three hours.

The KTM FREERIDE E comes with a 660 W charger and will complete a full charge in eight hours with a normal household supply. 20-80% rate can be reached between four and five hours.

Robust and dependable handling is achieved with the latest generation of WP Suspension. The front end is reactive but planted when required, thanks to light 43 mm WP XACT split design fork, with the air capsule in the left unit and the oil damping system in the right. Adjustment is easily made with the single air pressure valve and supplied air pump, for preload, with clickers offering compression and rebound adjustment. The brand-new design of the WP XPLOR PDS system provides 250 mm of travel on the rear. Oil flow has been optimised for a more consistent damping feeling from the 374 mm shock. New bearing seals have enlarged service intervals. The WP XPLOR PDS comes with adjustable clickers for tool-less alterations on the fly.

Other features include black aluminum wheels – fitted with versatile Michelin Enduro Medium tyres for EU models, BRAKETEC braking systems featuring 260/240 mm front and rear discs, a new Switchcube selection unit for the handlebars, and in-mould graphics and aesthetics that perfectly complement the look of the KTM SX and KTM EXC lines.

The 2025 KTM FREERIDE E is a versatile electric dirt bike with both off-road prowess and road-legal capabilities, given its road homologation. This feature allows riders to tackle untouched trails and then legally transition to public roads, making it perfect all round FREERIDE.

2025 KTM FREERIDE E Technical highlights:

  • New 2025 model from the ground up, new in-house KTM drivetrain
  • 11 kW nominal power, 19.2 kW peak power, 37 Nm of torque, and a top speed of 95 km/h
  • 20% more battery potential. 8h charging time with 660 W unit, 1.5h with 3.3 kW power charger (0-100% capacity) & 5.5 kWh battery capacity for 2-3 hours of Enduro riding time
  • 21”/18” aluminum wheels
  • Adjustable and light WP XACT and XPLOR suspension technology redesigned chromoly steel frame purpose-built for the platform and 112 kg total weight
  • Removable battery in less than ten minutes

The new 2025 KTM FREERIDE E will be rolling off the Austrian production line this winter and will be available from February 2025.

Are KTM Motorcycles Reliable? An In-Depth Look

KTM has earned a reputation for producing some of the most exciting, high-performance motorcycles on the market. From their cutting-edge street bikes to their dominant off-road machines, KTM consistently pushes the boundaries of motorcycle design and engineering. But for many riders, there’s one question that’s just as important as performance: are KTM motorcycles reliable?

In this article, we’ll take an in-depth look at KTM’s reliability and examine the factors that contribute to their dependability. We’ll explore KTM’s manufacturing processes, the quality of their components, and what riders can do to keep their KTMs running strong for years to come.

Understanding KTM’s Approach to Quality

KTM’s commitment to building reliable motorcycles starts at the very beginning of the design process. KTM’s engineers focus on creating bikes that aren’t just fast and powerful, but also durable and dependable. This approach is evident in every aspect of their motorcycles, from the choice of materials to the precise manufacturing techniques used.

One key factor in KTM’s reliability is their use of high-quality components. KTM sources parts from leading suppliers known for their durability and performance. For example, many KTM models feature suspension components from WP Performance Systems, a subsidiary of KTM that specialises in advanced suspension technology. By using top-tier components, KTM ensures that their bikes can withstand the rigours of high-performance riding.

KTM also invests heavily in state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities and quality control processes. Their main production plant in Mattighofen, Austria is one of the most advanced motorcycle factories in the world, utilising cutting-edge technology and automation to ensure consistent quality. Every KTM motorcycle undergoes rigorous testing and inspection before leaving the factory, so riders can be confident that their bike meets the highest standards.

The Proof Is in the Performance

Of course, the true test of a motorcycle’s reliability is how it performs in the real world. And this is where KTM really shines. KTM motorcycles have a well-earned reputation for being incredibly reliable, even in the most demanding conditions.

Take KTM’s off-road bikes, for example. These machines are built to withstand the punishing terrain and extreme conditions of off-road riding, from rocky trails to muddy motocross tracks. KTM’s enduro and motocross bikes are renowned for their durability, with many riders reporting that their KTMs have held up to years of hard use without major issues.

The same is true of KTM’s street bikes. Models like the 1290 Super Duke R and the 790 Duke are designed for high-performance riding, with powerful engines and advanced electronics. Yet despite their impressive capabilities, these bikes are also remarkably reliable. Many KTM owners report logging tens of thousands of miles without any significant problems.

One reason for this reliability is KTM’s focus on simplicity and ease of maintenance. KTM designs their bikes to be worked on, with easy access to key components and clear, concise service manuals. This makes it easier for riders to keep their KTMs in top condition, whether they’re doing the work themselves or taking it to a dealer.

Keeping Your KTM in Top Shape

While KTM motorcycles are engineered for reliability, there are still steps that riders can take to ensure their bike stays in peak condition. Regular maintenance is key to prolonging the life of any motorcycle, and KTMs are no exception.

One of the most important aspects of maintaining a KTM is following the recommended service intervals. KTM provides clear guidelines for when to perform tasks like oil changes, valve adjustments, and brake fluid replacement. By sticking to this schedule, riders can prevent wear and tear and catch potential issues before they turn into major problems.

It’s also important to use high-quality parts and fluids when servicing a KTM. Using inferior components or the wrong type of oil can lead to premature wear or even damage to the engine or other systems. KTM recommends using genuine KTM parts and approved fluids to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

Another factor in reliability is how the motorcycle is ridden. While KTMs are designed for high-performance riding, constantly pushing a bike to its limits can take a toll over time. Riders who practice smooth, controlled techniques and avoid abusing their machine will generally experience fewer issues in the long run.

The KTM Community

One of the things that sets KTM apart is the passionate community of riders who swear by the brand. KTM owners are known for their enthusiasm and loyalty, and this is in large part due to the reliability and performance of their motorcycles.

Many KTM riders report that their bikes have been incredibly dependable, even after years of hard use. There are countless stories of KTMs that have logged over 100,000 miles without major issues, or that have been passed down through multiple owners and are still going strong.

This reputation for reliability has helped KTM build a strong following among serious riders. Whether it’s off-road racers, adventure riders, or sport bike enthusiasts, KTM has earned the trust and respect of motorcyclists who demand the very best from their machines.

The Verdict on KTM Reliability

So, are KTM motorcycles reliable? Based on the evidence, the answer is a resounding yes. KTM’s commitment to quality engineering, advanced manufacturing, and the use of premium components results in bikes that are built to last. Combined with proper maintenance and responsible riding, a KTM motorcycle can provide years of dependable performance.

Of course, no motorcycle is completely immune to issues, and individual experiences can vary. However, the overwhelming consensus among KTM owners is that these bikes are among the most reliable on the market.
