The 2026 KTM 450 Rally Replica is a customer version of KTM's factory Dakar rally bike, built directly on input from the brand's Dakar-winning riders. Its 449.3cc liquid-cooled single drives through a 6-speed gearbox with a hydraulically actuated clutch, backed by WP XACT PRO suspension front and rear and a triple fuel-tank setup (about 35 litres total) for genuine rally-distance range. KTM is building just 150 units for 2026, sold as a race-ready, off-road-only machine rather than a road-legal model.

Best for: Built for long-distance desert rally racing and endurance offroad adventure riding, with its huge 35-litre fuel range and rally navigation tower reflecting a Dakar-style mission.
Built for: It has the character of a purebred rally weapon: light, high-clearance, long-travel, and focused entirely on covering rough ground fast and self-sufficiently rather than on refinement or comfort.
Not ideal for: This is not for beginners, casual commuters, or anyone wanting a comfortable passenger-friendly road bike.

Your height

Inseam (optional)

Units

At 960mm, a rider of 68.9" with a 31" (estimated) inseam will not reach the ground comfortably on the 2026 KTM 450 Rally Replica, with a cramped knee angle of around 85 degrees and an upright riding position.

Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated. This is an approximation from category-typical geometry, not a measurement of this bike or of you - sit on one before you buy.
