2025 KTM 450 RALLY REPLICA
We can say it; the KTM 450 RALLY REPLICA is the most successful machine ever to line up at the Dakar Rally. Not only has it graced the top step at the hands of seasoned pros, but its victories in the hands of privateers are equally impressive. With 10 out of 19 Dakar wins for KTM, and 235 Stage victories, the 2025 KTM 450 RALLY REPLICA remains the closest bike to a factory racer available off a dealership floor.

This motorcycle is designed, developed and produced in Austria.
