Features may include:

• EASY SUSPENSION ADJUSTMENT

As always, the suspension boasts an easy tool-free setup at both ends, ensuring you chase down the podium in total control. On the rear, a hand-adjustable dual compression option allows riders to adjust high- and low-speed settings in a matter of seconds. The forks on the front end are also easily modified thanks to hand-adjustable clickers on the bottom of the fork shoe and top cap.

• AIRBOX

Designed to provide maximum airflow, the air filter box is designed with precisely positioned inlet ducts aimed at preventing air deformation and maintaining filter protection. The Twin Air filter and air filter support design feature a simple fail-proof mounting system for safe and accurate filter installation, ensuring the air filter is easily accessed, without tools, by removing the left side panel, for easy track-side maintenance. A vented air filter box cover is also included for all SX and SX-F models in the by-pack.

• SERVICEABILITY

The KTM SX and SX-F range is engineered and designed to provide riders with easy-to-access service parts, as well as suspension adjustability. This permits faster trackside and off-season maintenance, as well as simplifying motocross for novice riders without pit crews. For 2026, a new threaded radiator cap allows easier and faster opening with reduced force.

• PERFORMANCE

The KTM SX-F engine is tilted 2° backward, this means greatly improved mass centralization and reduced overall weight, benefiting handling and anti-squat behavior. A silencer offers an improved response in combination with the mapping switch and provides a slightly quieter exhaust note.

• ABSOLUTE CONTROL

Get ready for a full-on berm assault. The KTM SX and SX-F machines feature revised frame updates developed with input from KTM Factory Racing. For starters, the area around the rear shock mount is streamlined, with optimized engine mounts and cut-outs for improved chassis flex. The front area of the frame features optimized wall thickness with updated engine mounts.
