TESTED: 2023 KTM MX RANGE

4 years ago | Words: Andy Wigan | Photos: Cade Media / Flightcraft

In terms or character, feel and performance, how do KTM’s 2023 MX bikes compare with their 2022-model counterparts? What’s this new “anti-squat chassis” KTM keeps talking about? How well does the all-new fuel-injection work on the 2023 two-strokes? Does the all-new, fire-breathing 300SX two-stroke live up to all the hype? And what’s the most improved bike in the six-model range, and why?

To bring you the answers to all these questions and more, we teamed up with former Pro racer and test pilot, Mike Sleeter. Who better to offer credible feedback on these landmark new models than the guy who developed KTM’s production bikes for 15 years in the USA before recently moving to Oz?!
