- Last night, the 2022.5 KTM Factory Edition 250 and 450 SX-F motocross bikes were unveiled to the press at the Austrian manufacturer's American headquarters in Murietta, California. As part of the festivities, the media was given a guided tour of the Red Bull KTM race shop by John Hinz, President of KTM North America, Roger DeCoster popped in for parts of the tour as well, which was fascinating and interesting. Enjoy!

You have to be 60 to realize how great Roger was and he has possibly contributed more to motocross over the years than anyone else.
He did and does. He's a goldmine of motocross knowledge. That's why KTM is on top.
Thats amazing information about KTM: czcams.com/video/rwxZWaP-yGw/video.html
No doubt! How many other supercross team managers would you find late at night dreaming up and machining on a lathe or mill a potential new part or part improvement…even if it’s only a part improvement to keep the factory awning straighter??? Roger DeCoster is the class of class in the moto world. You could probably put the next 3 race team managers together and they still wouldn’t come close to the depth of knowledge, understanding and insight that Roger possesses!
I’m 55 in July and totally remember.
I loved that comment from Roger referring to Magoo being a rider that stood out from the group.
My lord, how sophisticated is KTM. I remember seeing a Honda factory team in 1978 at Englishtown, NJ. I think it was run out of a small truck. What a transformation in motocross.
I love how KTM does this I remember, seeing an inside look at the factory in Austria, cool stuff👍👍
Very transparent and straight forward . One hell of a company. Invest now. WINNER, WINNER, WINNER!
Amazing. Thanks for the tour. ROGER/IAN you guys are the best. Thankyou
Very impressive! Having Roger on the team is a huge benefit to the Factory racing effort.
As a avid motorcycle enthusiast and spectator I had the privilege to see Roger ride for Suzuki back in the late 60s. I’ve been a fan of his ever since . He truly is a legend 👍👍
So many absolute legends working at KTM. The Man, Ian, Kelly Lumgair. No surprise that they've been so dominant since they hired Dunge. At least until this year anyway.
Roger de Coster is "the man" for no insignificant reason, such a great in our sport.
Man, that engine wall. Insanely cool
I am sure their next step is more open shops, comfortable for the mechanics, sun light, being able to look through a window, more organic ... but what a dream to work with does guys, and Yes Roger is a legend.
I have a huge amount of respect and admiration for a company like KTM, and the legend of Roger D (I'm nearly 60 yo so I know the history), that have done so much for MX motorsports and the incredible KTM brand. Keep improving guys !!
Looks amazing what a dream it would be to work there!
Cool peek inside the process. 👍🔥
Almost everything Roger touches turns to gold.
Yet he couldn't be more humble.
Good video of the inside technical service of KTM factory. I always broke down my engine for maintenance each season, being a former non pro class rider. Its always good to ride what you know your riding on. Your life is basically in your own hands.
Fantastic! I just switched from Yamaha to KTM i just bought the 23 sxf450 factory edition model and love it!!!!!! So much better than my YZ.
Sharing all info with every ktm team around the world i wonder if any of the other bike company does this
Appreciate ya SM crew 👊 Old G
That was awesome!
Very cool. Keep up the good work KTM.
Excellent tour by John, he is an outstanding learned face for the organization. As for Professor Emeritus, Mr. Roger DeCoster, call him "The Man", "Dirty Harry", whichever. He's cooler than the other side of the pillow, has been for over 50 years.
I could probably make a valid, winning argument that he's been as important to motocross & supercross as the knobby tire.
Cool vid. Amazing
That wall of engines 😍
the shout out to magoo...... truer words have never been spoken. no one was like magoo.
This is brilliant so professional.
Thank you Don.
The man roger!!!
Nice, thank you. see ya in the hills.
Awesome video
The KTM is taking over I'm pretty pleased with the 350sxf I only have the 2017 but 54 HP rear wheel
Suzuki cutting Roger and Ian lose was the biggest mistake they ever have done in the motocross concern. KTM took advantage and really did set the bar. Sure motocross is a small fraction within major japanese brands but , crazy how they should have learned by watching KTM progression.
World class
KTM Europe Pride 💪🥇EUR
Love KTM those jackets are awesome.
Would you guys do a video of taking down a Dakar run 450 engine? That would be epic.
Dam ktm does it and does it 110%. Which is a probly an understatement
First class all the way.
I was surprised no suspension shop.
WP has its own location in another building close by.
The secret sauce to KTM is Roger DeCoster...
This why there on top
Once in a lifetime gig right there.
Would love to work there.
same here! I’m an electronics technician and the processes the master techs at KTM work under seem very similar to mine. i was really surprised by that but I can see how it really benefits the team
go apply
@@showtime951 If I could afford to live in Cali? I'd be all over that.
Thanks for an inside look of KTM motocross facility. I've seen your new one, it looks wonderful.
Roger D. needs to be brought in for the styling of their 890 Adventure, cause.......... dam.
2023 frame 😍
Was VitalMX allowed in the building or did “picture-gate” get them banned this year? ;)
I always dreamed of working at the factory where they made the old Swedish Husqvarna’s but since that closed my dream died. I got a new place I’d love to work but I just can’t do California. I just better stay on the couch and dream of the good old day’s when things went ring ding ding ding….. and exhausted smelled funny.
Sooo cooool
I can’t imagine the pressure riders feel knowing that all these people are depending on them.
was wanting to see the RD5 factory coffee machine ?
Top Secret
Donn, thanks for all the great content. Much love but seriously need a new mic😣
....Mattighofen Factory Racing & Pit B Rules....
...in Deep Memory of #711
It wasn't very long ago that KTM was kind of a joke, now they have taken over the sport with their multiple brands.
Probably about $1M worth of engines on that wall alone.
I just need one of those husq motors man plz my mechanic got robbed while working on my rockstar
If I get rich investing, I wonder if they'll take like a quarter million for a full blown factory bike with some legal agreement that I don't open the motor and send it out to them whenever it blows up xD
If they release information about bike with issues found ext why havnt they come out about the tpi bikes and all there issues ?
Не чего не понятно но очень интересно
Love my KTM 450 2023 sxf factory edition model. I have 2 Yamaha wr450f 2021 models but the ktm is a far superior product.
KTM POWER..... THE BEST IS KTM 1290 SaS!! WUAWWWW IS AMAZING
please, put subtitling on each vidéo! good work!
Get rid of wp and develop a aluminium frame to dominate. If I can see it y can’t roger
Yep same bike racers use. lol
Ktm must have a great deal to convert to electric ...much easier to make...and much much faster
Is Rodger drinking a Monster Water Drink???
Manufacturers better start lobbying funds now, before nuke plants and lithium battery companies beat them to the punch, maybe they can stop the last nails in the coffin.
He doesn't speak too much, but when the man speaks, you can hear a sewing needle drop. They should put pictures of windows up. These guys probably burn out faster than the riders, looks like being stuck in a submarine all day every day. I never thought to thank God for bay doors with Windows.
E y d
No Roger…No KTM🤣🔥🦾
Hi I am India . 2021 KTM RC look very bad. People don't like that look . Before RC look very nice . Plz Cheng and meka to old RC rilettade
I quess there is bette quality than this what ktm is selling....
Worst place in the world to work.
If you hate orange. I don't but all the same my '07 990 Adventure was anthracite and my new 890 R is white and black (and orange).
Good to here they are changing most of the bike build as there are complete rubbish so far. Lmao.
KTM is so far ahead of the Japanese manufacturers its not even funny.
Who knew you could dirtbikes so boreing
KTM needs a good shop as the bikes are junk, crap. And need fixing constantly. I know as I own one. Worst mistake I ever made.
We can see you Mr. Honda, haha.
@@kimojon9665 Dealer just discovered it has a severely scored and cracked cylinder, and a multi cracked piston. Which was from day 1! Only has 7 hours on it and the shock is leaking also. It never had much power from the 1st minutes I bought it.
The Lemon Law may apply to this one.
Must have been broken or broke during the factory dyno run every KTM dirtbike goes through at the end of the assembly line.
@@kimojon9665 My Hondas and Yamahas have been near flawless for me for 25+ years.
"Take out all the variables to measure the engine performance "
How about an engine only dyno ?
Are you an OEM manufacturer or a speed shop ?
Any idiot can buy a chassis dyno 🤣
This is not cutting edge
That makes a lot of senses. Seems to be a lot of work to put an engine in a bike and then remove it again.
