KTM‰ЫЄs very limited edition 450SX-F Factory Edition is heading to Australian with just 55 units slated to set down in Australia in March.
This is the bike that KTM homologated specifically for Ryan Dungey and now Ken Roczen to compete in the AMA SX and MX championship series, and the dynamic duo has definitely used it to good effect, with three podiums including a first-round win.
‰ЫПIt‰ЫЄs almost a 2014.5 bike,‰Ыќ said KTM‰ЫЄs National Marketing Manager Greg Chambers. ‰ЫПThe factory has created the best possible package to compete on, and the price of $12,995 plus dealer delivery is a $1,500 premium over the standard 2014 model, but that‰ЫЄs nothing compared to the price of the parts fitted.‰Ыќ
"Only 350 units will be made for sale worldwide, but just 55 will be arriving down under in March. They are not expected to last, so if you want to secure yours, pre-order at your local dealer now," Chambers added.
While the limited edition bike will arrive next month KTM Dealers around the country are taking orders Now
