The KTM 450 ATV and KTM 525 ATV models are the first in the US from KTM Sportmotorcycle AG, and a potent pair they are. Built to win from hole-shot to podium is how KTM describes their plans for these new models, I can’t wait to see them pull it off and don’t doubt that they will give it their worthy best.
