KTM reveals 2026 motocross models

Just days after resuming production in Austria, KTM has revealed its 2026 motocross lineup spanning two-stroke and four-stroke models. 

But those expecting radical changes will have to wait at least another year as there are only minor updates across the range for 2026.  

The minibike models get the biggest refresh, with the KTM 50 SX and KTM 65 SX benefitting from a new WP XACT AER front fork with a “renewed air cartridge and sealing concept for better damping, control, and performance”.

Additionally, the triple clamps for the junior models now have the same 17mm wrench size and closed screw nut format as the full-size SX models. The 65 SX an overhauled clutch fixation system, while the 85 SX has been given a new rear brake lever with two adjustments options for length to the brake tip. 

The full-size bikes get a new look with a black powder-coated frame and matching black seat, while the SX two-stroke models benefit from some minor improvements for enhanced durability and ease-of-maintenance.

KTM Australia anticipates the new bikes will arrive in local dealerships by October 2025, with a separate announcement on SX-E electric models expected later in the year.
