The concept revolves around pure riding. No distractions, no extras, no frivolity. RIDE KTM, and the handy online booking tool, is not a playground for the select few. Anyone and everyone can find their home with the throttle. RIDE KTM exists in four areas, all with their own characteristics and appeal.
TOURS: Enduro, Adventure, exploration. Every month there are special gatherings to roam some of the majestic untouched regions of the world. From the Americas to Africa to the kinks of Europe, RIDE KTM Tours promises stunning ride-outs on the best bikes, camaraderie and cool hosts and guides like Alfie Cox, Dennis Schroeter and Gilles Salvador. Different places, different price points, logistics and a wealth of options; all easy to see and book through the webpage.
TRAINING: Good riders can always try to be great. Sometimes that extra familiarity or confidence pays back when it comes to the satisfaction in the saddle or increased safety on the road. Street courses and Offroad tuition help motorcyclists hone their sensitivity or work on those habits. The programs are conducted with skilled instructors and in controlled environments to make the sessions as pleasurable as they are practical.
RACE TRACK: KTM’s ‘backyard’. There cannot be many of us who haven’t fantasized about going fast at a race track. The new KTM RC R Cup opens the horizon to speed and some of the sportier models of the KTM portfolio. Events take place at premier circuits and venues and there are still a few spots available for the 2026 calendar!
RENTAL: Lined up outside the KTM Motohall in Mattighofen, the KTM rental fleet is ready to hit the road. From April through October, riders can choose from a selection of KTM motorcycles available for rent—whether for a four-hour ride combined with a KTM Museum visit or for a multi-day adventure. Protective riding gear is also available, making it easy to enjoy a spontaneous KTM experience. For more information, visit www.ktm-motohall.com.
RIDE KTM has been creating memories for almost four decades. There have been many personal, individual and group highlights along the way. In 2026 and the coming editions, the TOURS are really hitting new heights with the Brazil Jungle Enduro in Belo Horizonte, Kini´s American Dream in Salt Lake City, the South Africa Botswana Safari Experience and the South Africa Alfie Cox Tour. Kini’s Chile-Argentina La Araucanía tour is the latest tantalising addition.
