KTM launches new test ride campaign with full 2027 Enduro range available

KTM is bringing a new test ride campaign to the UK this autumn, with three stops planned as part of the new Orange Enduro Takeover programme.

The new test ride scheme starts later this month on Sunday 27, at the Action Trax, Exedown Track, in Sevenoaks. From there, KTM will take its test ride programme to Wales on October 24, with a visit to the Marsh Powersports Enduro Demo Day at Glynduro Land, in Llandovery.

Finally, KTM’s third and final stop will see the manufacturer land in Shrewsbury, courtesy of a one-day event organised by Fast Eddy Racing on November 14.

KTM’s full 2027 enduro motorcycle range will be available to test at all three locations, while each event will be led by official Ride KTM experience partner and former British Enduro Champion Alex Snow, of the Alex Snow Off-Road KTM Enduro Experience.

Riders will have the chance to ride models such as the 2027 125 XC-W, the new 300 EXC HardEnduro, or the 500 EXC-F.

To take part in any of the three test ride days, riders are required to book their entry with the event organiser directly. 

Once this has been completed, riders can simply turn up to the event and book their KTM test ride, which can be done via a dedicated team on-site. 

However, it should be noted that test rides will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, so it is advised that you arrive as early as possible. 

Matt Walker, Managing Director at KTM UK, said this about the new test ride scheme: 

"Offroad riding is at the heart of KTM and the Orange Enduro Takeover reflects our commitment to both the enduro discipline and the riders who continue to drive it forward across the UK. Our objective is to create more opportunities for riders to experience our latest machinery in the environments it was designed for, while spending time with the UK team and the wider KTM community. 

“This initiative is about more than test rides. It's a demonstration of our ongoing investment in the offroad market and a clear signal of our commitment to delivering even greater support, experiences and access for KTM customers in the years ahead. We're excited to launch the Orange Enduro Takeover and look forward to welcoming riders to all three events."
