KTM’s 2022 450 SMR supermoto shares the same platform as its motocross cousin. The SMR is powered by the same motor, which weighs 59.5 pounds, that powers the 450 SX-F but, as before, “has been adjusted and modified for optimum supermoto use,” says KTM.
Gear shifting is handled by a Pankl Racing Systems five-speed gearbox with a Suter anti-hopper clutch. Brakes are made up of a Brembo four-piston radial caliper 310mm disc up front and a 220mm disc in the back.
Suspension features a WP Xact AER 48mm fork and a WP Xact rear shock.
The SMR is fitted with supermoto 16.5/17-inch Alpina wheels and Bridgestone racing slick tires.
Claimed dry weight is 224.8 pounds.
The 2022 KTM 450 SMR will be available at KTM dealers in October. CN
