So that's how the next season Red Bull KTM team bike looks like! KTM has unveiled the new 450 SX-F machine for 2013, a bike which will be manufactured in a limited run of 555 models, each with a number sticker attached.
As the last year's Factory Edition model received many praises from the customers and those who have gotten to ride it, it was only natural to see the next bike being offered just before the debut of the AMA Supercross Championship in Anaheim, California, January 5 2013.

The 2013 450 SX-F Factory Edition is still based on the 450cc injected single-cylinder engine which received numerous tweaks to make it more competitive and compliant with the rigors of motocross racing.

However, a lot of chassis-related upgrades are present in the 2013 version: a bright orange powder-coating on the frame, orange radiator and engine protectors and a Salle de Valle custom seat, anodized triple clamps and rear sprocket, both in orange, a Regina racing chain and Akrapovic titanium factory exhaust. Finally, an engine mapping switch to easily and conveniently adjust the ignition settings. Stay tuned for availability and pricing.
