A KTM has won the Dakar Rally’s motorcycle class thirteen consecutive times. Now privateers have the opportunity to emulate that success, as the Austrian firm has just introduced the 450 Rally Replica.
It’s a serious piece of kit that boasts many of the features found on the bike ridden to victory in this year’s Dakar by Marc Coma. For example, there are multiple fuel tanks which can be used selectively via a pump system to optimise weight distribution.
Illustrating the attention to detail, the carbon fibre ‘tower’ housing the instruments and navigation equipment has been made as slim as possible to ensure a good view of the front wheel and the terrain ahead. Power comes from a single-cylinder, fuel-injected, 450 cc engine that sits within a steel trellis frame.
Available in limited numbers, the 450 Rally Replica is priced at €24,000 plus VAT. KTM is also offering a competitors’ service and support package for an additional cost.
