KTM's profilation of this bike |
The 450 EXC can justifiably claim to be the most widely ridden bike in enduro sport and a serial winner in the E2 World Championship. The top dog has been revamped and slimmed down in practically every aspect - from the frame to the electronic injection and the engine management system to the material selection. |
