Built around KTM's enduro - offroad motorcycle platform, the 2015 KTM 450 EXC features a 449.3 cc (27.4 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 95.0 x 63.4 mm (3.7 x 2.5 inches).
On the scales, the 450 EXC measures 111 kg (245 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 970 mm (38.2 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,482 mm (58.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 9-liter (2.4 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
