Speaking about the new bike, Ian Harrison, Team Manager, Red Bull KTM Factory Racing Team, said, “The KTM 450 SX-F Factory Edition is a World Championship-proven machine and the clear weapon of choice for the Team. This model truly embraces KTM’s ‘Ready to Race’ philosophy and the company continues to prove its commitment through R&D and feedback from the racers themselves.”
