The track-only 2025 KTM 450 SMR, built on the platform of the KTM 450 SX-F, has been updated for 2025. The most significant update to the KTM 450 SMR is the frame, which now has visible cutouts and tube-wall-thickness changes around the front.

These upgrades shave a bit of weight off the bike, which weighs 240 lb without fuel, while also improving chassis flex characteristics and cornering behavior, according to KTM.

  1. Would be nice to include super scooters, 250 cc and above, for other riders. At 79 yrs I changed to a 400 cc Yamaha Majesty and was surprised how much I liked it after 18 years on VStroms.

    • We typically include (and test) larger scooters, but not many have been updated lately. This isn’t a comprehensive buyers guide; it just covers new/updated bikes.

  2. A agree with above comment about scooters.
    At no charge here’s a outline of a 1 edition month exclusive on scooters.
    1. Cover: Is a scooter a motorcycle
    2 Photo A Yamaha T-Max 560 (not sold in America). 47HP YES.
    3. Duh. History of scooters includes oldest (ICE) ever to newest notable Electrics, and
    then future predictions of scooters.
    4. Scooters from around the
    world. You do realize there are probably close to 1 Billion
    scooters In use worldwide mostly in Asia and developing country’s where cars are unaffordable for the masses.
    4. Covering the world of scooters.
    5. Segmented by cc review of scooters.
    40cc to 149cc
    150cc ro 250 etc.
    Racing scooters do they? I don’t know you guys fine out.

  3. I agree with Mr. Hayden, with a slight addition. For his proposed segmented reviews, please include an additional class for scooters over 250cc. Examples would include: Yamaha Xmax 292cc, Suzuki Burgman 400, Piaggio BV400, Vespa 300 (278cc), GTS Super (278cc), and GTV300 (listed as 300cc), and the Kymco AK550 liquid cooled twin. I would leave to your discretion: Piaggio MP3 and Kymco CV3 (my vote is “No”).

    The matter of larger cc scooters raises the question: State by state, at how many cc’s is the operator required to have a motorcycle license? Thanks! Jim Dieringer

    • It is government regulations that are driving the prices up. Pollution controls, ABS, Catalytic converters, traction control, liability insurance for sue happy lawyers. Just look at the God awful rear fenders and taillights the manufacturers have to put on their motorcycles.

  4. It seems to me that the governments around the world, want to price motorcycles, and a lot more out of business. I wish, we could just be left alone to enjoy our favorite means of transportation.

  5. let’s not forget the greedy dealers who mark things way up then add on freight,cost to build…pdi…the list goes on and on….I once worked for a dealer who would make $750 clear even if he sold the bike at dealer cost…like I said greedy

  6. I’d love to see the market research that steers so many manufacturers away from bringing small displacement, low cost bikes to the US.

    Surely, I’m not the only rider who wants something fun, cheap and stylish to bop around town on. Give me a 125-250cc that doesn’t look like it was designed by a 12 year old boy.

  7. Oi vey, all these scooter comments. I worked for San Francisco’s CITIBIKE for many years and road tested the Suzuki 650 Burgman – it was a great bike but for some reason Suzuki didn’t want it back. What happened? I ended up putting nearly 5,000 miles on it, touring the western United States. Capable? Yup. Enjoyable? Absolutely. Did people stare? You bet!

    I’d love to convince Triump to build a scooter around their monster, three cylinder motor and up the horsepower to over 200 (supercharge the darn thing). With 16 inch wheels and minimal brakes it would be truly a bike to overwhelm the VAST majority of riders.

    Scooters rule in MANY nations, just not so much here.

  8. SCOOTERS!? Where are they? I stop throwing a leg over at 70 plus years. I didn’t stop riding. AND the garage has no room for a CanAm or a Ryker or Harley trike which you’ve covered in the past.

    A buying guide with out SCOOTERS is like 1/2 the menu.

  9. I recently purchased a BMW C650GT Maxi Scooter (automatic). After riding motorcycles for the last fifty years, it is quite different. Besides always looking for the shifter and trying to pull in the non-existent clutch while stopping, it’s been a blast. I find that other motorcycle riders actually still wave when I pass by; in my head, I’m thinking, “Don’t judge me, Bro!”

    My only regret is that Honda doesn’t sell its ADV750 in the States. The ADV750 would sell well, and many older riders like myself would snap them up. Are you listening, Honda?
