From a press release issued By KTM North America:

ON TRACK THIS FALL: THE 2022 KTM 450 SMR IS THE ULTIMATE SUPERMOTO RACER

KTM North America, Inc. is pleased to announce details for the 2022 KTM 450 SMR. Razor sharp on the asphalt and with newly-enhanced aesthetics to match, the KTM 450 SMR is the definitive Supermoto machine for hunting the checkered flag or shaving seconds off of your lap time… if you can catch it.

The 2022 KTM 450 SMR delivers KTM’s swift and powerful punch in the Supermoto world. A segment-benchmark for handling and power, this new machine gets even closer to the KTM racing family thanks to its special orange frame, blue seat and racing graphics.

The championship-winning engine from KTM’s motocross and supercross machines has been adjusted and modified for optimum Supermoto use. The motor weighs just 59.5 lbs (27 kg) but growls with torque and bites hard with on-demand horsepower. The power curve is fully exploited by the Pankl Racing System’s 5-speed gearbox that benefits from a sensor that permits specific engine maps for each gear. A 44 mm Keihin throttle body is key to the instantaneous, yet confidence-inspiring, throttle response coaxed from the KTM 450 SMR’s powerplant.

Unrivalled handling is delivered by the chromium molybdenum steel frame—fabricated by robotic laser-wielding for the utmost precision and quality—and the meld of perfect torsion and flex characteristics. The 16 mm offset geometry brings a natural and attack-ready character through the CNC-machined triple clamps with a three-way adjustable handlebar.

Supermoto is all about living on the limits of traction. To make the most of this thrilling ride, KTM has equipped the bike with a long list of premium parts. To that end, WP XACT suspension front and rear helps the 2022 KTM 450 SMR both stick and slide as the forces of physics drive through the Supermoto 16.5/17 ALPINA light, spoked tubeless wheels and Bridgestone racing slick tires. Ultimate braking performance is achieved with a premium Brembo 4-piston radial caliper and master cylinder setup with 310 mm disc on the front and a 220 mm disc on the rear.

For 2022, the KTM 450 SMR introduces a frame finished in racing orange coating, new blue seat cover and fresh colors in the graphics to further reinforce its close proximity to the race-winning machines of the Red Bull KTM Factory Racing stars.
