MORE INFO
The KOVE 450 RALLY is the bike that dreams are made of; before Kove emerged on the scene, a bike like this would have been unobtanium. Purpose-built rally-raid machines simply didn’t exist outside of the factory paddocks at the rally races on the other side of the globe. Now, with the 450 RALLY, you too can own and enjoy a true rally motorcycle! Engineered from day one to cover long distances in comfort, the KOVE delivers unparalleled range with a combined 8 gallon fuel capacity. The fuel is distributed between three fuel tanks, all mounted as low as possible for an optimum center of gravity. The DOHC 450 powerplant is tuned to chug out reliable torque and power for weeks on end, with a large oil capacity for long maintenance intervals. Everything is wrapped together in rally-ready bodywork that is easily removable by Dzus fasteners.
The KOVE 450 RALLY PRO RACE edition is ready to compete in any rally-raid event on the globe. In fact, 3 PRO RACE editions entered and finished the grueling 2023 Dakar Rally, which was considered by all to be the toughest Dakar in at least the last decade! KOVE believes in racing what the sell and selling what they race, so the PRO RACE edition is EXACTLY the same as the bikes that conquered the Dakar!
The PRO RACE model is based on the standard model with every upgrade needed for rally racing. Read on to learn about how to turn your rally dreams into reality!
