The 2026 lineup remains on top of the podium thanks to KTM's SX philosophy of agile handling and race-winning power. Every model is equipped with class-leading electronics, refined chassis dynamics, and explosive power delivery. Riders aiming for factory-level precision can unlock full adjustability with the optional Connectivity Unit Offroad. Paired with the KTMconnect app, it enables fine-tuning of engine behavior, traction control, and suspension settings.

The settings and configuration of the full-size KTM SXs and KTM SX-Fs come from the substantial success and learnings of competition in the AMA Supercross and Pro Motocross Championships, in addition to the FIM Motocross World Championship. The latest model lineup with a revitalized orange aesthetic and graphics now also embraces a shade of purple on the tank spoilers and fork guards. The frame is powder-coated black with a matching black seat for a new look that is easy to spot across the range.

KTM has tweaked the radiator closure to be more standardized and to reduce force for easier access on all KTM SX models. Where applicable, all fuel injection units have a new protector cap for the fuel link quick lock system that will beef up durability and assist with maintenance. The 2-stroke KTM SXs have an improved wiring harness routing, plus adjustments of the fixing points and organization represent another effort for resistance against the elements.

KTM’s commitment to providing the widest and highest quality platform of progression for young riders is steadfast for 2026. KTM Sportminicycles remain a cornerstone of development, giving young riders the tools to start their journey – from first laps on the electric KTM SX-E models to racing progression with the KTM 50 SX, KTM 65 SX, and KTM 85 SX.

Fun or first place? The 2026 KTM Sportminicycles will carry youth on their way. The KTM 50 SX and KTM 65 SX benefit from a new WP XACT AER front fork with a renewed air cartridge and sealing concept for better damping, control, and overall performance. The radiator closure has been updated to be more standardized and for easier access, in line with the bigger KTM SX models. The triple clamps for the KTM 50 SX, KTM 65 SX, and KTM 85 SX now have the same 17 mm wrench size and closed screw nut format as the full-size KTM SXs to add a further barrier against dirt and water intrusion. On the theme of resistance, the throttle cable assembly is less prone to kinking and deformation thanks to a new stabilization cap.

The 2026 KTM 65 SX features an overhauled clutch fixation system, pre-coating, and increased torque tightening for maximum durability. Running through these KTM SXs, a new laser-cut exhaust flange gasket promotes more reliability, and the exhaust valve ventilation emanating from the cylinder has been redesigned in Austria with the same mission in mind. The KTM 85 SX has been given a new rear brake lever with two adjustment options for length to the brake tip. This will help in terms of set-up for different sized kids who are making the transition from the KTM 65 SX to the KTM 85 SX.

To keep your racer at the front of the pack, the 2026 KTM 50 SX gearbox underwent several improvements with the target of adding more robustness and overall durability to the small 50 cc engine. Transmission shafts are new developments with wider dimensions and several components have been reinforced to enhance the overall engine build.

The KTM 50 SX FACTORY EDITION is for any young racer that is already fantasizing of checkered flags while watching their racing heroes. The READY TO RACE KTM PowerParts components and factory team replica livery will pull them closer to the dream and create a tight link to Red Bull KTM Factory Racing stars.

2026 KTM SX range highlights:

- Latest iterations of technical base that has won championships and races in competition across the globe, features for 2026 in-mold graphics and color scheme with greater orange emphasis, purple details, black seat and black frame color on full-size SX range.

- New threaded radiator closure allows easier and faster opening with reduced force for 50-450 cc models.

- KTM Sportminicycles: Upgrades to the triple clamps.

- KTM 50/65 SX: New WP XACT AER fork, as well as enhancements to the clutch and exhaust architecture.

- KTM 85 SX: New rear foot brake lever with two different length adjustment options of the brake tip.

- Full collection of KTM PowerParts and KTM PowerWear to complement each motorcycle from protection to customization, performance and aesthetics.

Manfred Edlinger, Head of Motocross Development: “We’re in the fourth year of the current generation for the KTM SX full-size models, third for the KTM 50 SX and 65 SX, and the second for the KTM 85 SX. The bikes keep moving from strength to strength as we find measures and changes to make sure we stay at the forefront of choice for all racers. The whole range has been restyled, but we’ve also found ways to bolster the KTM Sportminicycles because we know the components, the performance, and the technical base of these special KTMs will satisfy the hungriest little racer and their family. Embrace the ‘bar’ again, because we’re pumped to continue lifting it in motocross.”

The 2026 KTM SX range will be available at Authorized KTM dealers from September 2025 onward. The 2026 SX-E model line-up will be communicated separately at a later stage this summer. For more information, visit ktm.com.

LIMITS REDEFINED: 2026 KTM ENDURO LINEUP LAUNCHED

Enduro trails have lacked some fresh orange in 2025, so now is the time to peel away both the covers and the limits for the rest of the year and beyond with the 2026 KTM XC-W range. We’ve redefined our conquering Enduro collection and also the limits thanks to key updates and refinements to the principal four models, and with more special editions to come.

Tracks, obstacles, stages, Hard Enduro, all-weather, all-competition: the 2026 KTM Enduro roster has the pedigree and the focus to satisfy any level, any ability, any contest. The only real question is whether riders can make the most of the engineering?

The 2026 KTM Enduro portfolio consists of (news of the 2026 KTM 350 EXC-F and KTM 500 EXC-F dual-sports coming in the following weeks):

2-Stroke:

KTM 150 XC-W

KTM 250 XC-W

KTM 300 XC-W

4-Stroke:

KTM 450 XCF-W

KTM riders - past and current - know that modifications are crucial to maintain a competitive edge, while newcomers to the XC-W family will be wondering how those orange bikes fly along so fast. The present KTM Enduro platform has been chiseled to an exceptionally high standard for engine technology (powerful, compact, reliable, light and advanced motors, with the TBI electronic fuel injection system for 2-strokes) and the world class hydro-formed, laser-cut and robot-welded chassis (including the aluminum swingarms and hybrid subframes) with calculated longitude and torsional flex for a prime riding sensation. The bikes are race-ready refined. Example? How about the forged triple clamps, Neken bars, Brembo brakes and hydraulic clutch, Keihin throttle body, and ODI lock-on grips. Then other attributes like the Offroad Control Unit, GIANT high-strength alloy rims, potent LED headlight, and in-mold plastics.

The 2026 range then brings significant suspension upgrades with the tried-and-tested 48 mm WP XACT Closed Cartridge spring fork receiving new damping settings and new, lighter, shorter springs, as well as a reworked pressure reservoir that has been adapted with revised geometry of the spring support. A new one-piece hydro stop rounds out the front fork overhaul which also results in an overall weight-saving of 200 grams. Less weight, more performance equals more feel, more confidence.

KTM signature shock technology with the WP XPLOR PDS also benefits from the same attention to setup and optimization as the fork with new settings for the new year. Maintenance is a breeze with no external moving parts to worry about. The constant strive for better traction and stability continues and takes another roll forward.

A new protection cap has been added to the CPC fuel connector for all bikes. This not only provides an added layer against damage but is also another seal to prevent the intrusion of dirt and water. The cooling system on 2026 KTM Enduro models has undergone a revision with a new radiator cap. A standard thread allows for easier and faster opening. On a related subject, a radiator fan is attached on the KTM 450 XCF-W as standard.

Another notable difference comes through the fresh 2026 styling and in-mold graphics package for the bi-composite plastics. The effect introduces a more vivid orange to the scene but also flashes of red on the forkguards and re-modeled tank spoilers where redistributed airflow will help with cooling. The high-grip seat cover is now black with similar textured material for the frame protectors, bar pads and tank spoilers. Last but not least, Dunlop has provided new Geomax AT82 tires for superb offroad mastery.

The 2026 KTM XC-W range is the culmination of many years of R&D fighting at the sharp end of Enduro competition worldwide, bringing dynamic race-bred performance, focused ergonomics, and leading technology to the start line. Ready for the next lap?

As always, a dedicated spread of KTM PowerWear and KTM PowerParts is designed to provide the highest levels of customization (both practical and aesthetic) with vast collections ready to meet the wishes of hobby riders and pro racers alike.

2026 KTM XC-W and XCF-W bikes will be available at authorized KTM dealers from September onward. For more information, visit ktm.com.
