KTM has widened the reach of its free premium manufacturer’s warranty, extending the four-year cover to all of its street-legal motorcycles from the 2025 model year onward.

The move brings more of the Austrian brand’s range under the same warranty umbrella, including newer machines such as the 990 RC R. It also marks a broader shift in how KTM is presenting long-term ownership support, taking a benefit that had previously been limited to selected models and applying it across a much larger part of the line-up.

There is a clear boundary to the offer. KTM said the warranty does not apply to track-only motorcycles, with bikes such as the 990 RC R Track specifically excluded. The expansion is aimed squarely at road-registered machines, covering models across adventure, dual sport, naked, supersport, sports tourer and supermoto categories.

For riders, the detail that matters most may be the servicing condition attached to the package. KTM said the full four-year warranty remains valid only if all required maintenance is completed by an authorised KTM dealer and carried out in line with the company’s official service schedule.

That requirement is hardly unusual in the motorcycle business, but it does underline how closely the offer is tied to the dealer network. The warranty may be free at the point of purchase, yet keeping it intact depends on owners staying within KTM’s approved servicing system over the full term.

The company also set out an extra benefit for customers in the UK. Alongside the warranty, those riders will receive Service Activated Roadside Assistance, known as SARA. KTM said that when an annual service is completed at an authorised dealer, roadside assistance cover is extended for up to 12 months or until the next scheduled service, with no additional charge.

Spela Kovacic, KTM’s vice president for global customer service, said the company had been working to strengthen its warranty support and give customers greater peace of mind. She said riders who follow the recommended service schedule can count on comprehensive cover if problems arise, and described the expansion as a sign of KTM’s confidence in its street range.

The timing is notable because KTM is presenting the policy as a brand-wide reassurance measure rather than a model-specific incentive. In practical terms, that gives buyers of a much broader range of road bikes the same headline promise on aftersales backing.

For existing and prospective customers, the change is less about a dramatic shift in the motorcycles themselves and more about what ownership looks like after the sale. In a market where service costs and long-term reliability remain central concerns, warranty coverage still carries real weight.
