KTM has earned a reputation for building some of the capable off-road bikes on the planet. While their early racing efforts were focused more on motocross and enduro, KTM flat track bikes have become a regular sight at dirt ovals around the world. In fact, the winningest racer in American Flat Track (AFT) Singles is Pennsylvania’s Shayna Texter, who rides a factory KTM.
Not only have the orange machines become potent flat trackers, but custom builders have begun building KTM street trackers inspired by their racing counterparts. It’s hard to imagine more fun on two wheels than a high-powered single-cylinder KTM with twin 19-inch wheels and a license plate… Below, check out some of the KTM flat and street trackers we’ve featured on Bikebound.com.
