In addition, KTM is proud to be a major sponsor of the entire series, as well as supporting the newly-introduced KTM SX85 Futures category.

Leading the charge on the racing front will be former SX2 series runner-up Crawford, with the Queenslander to be equipped with the KTM 450 SX-F and carrying the momentum of a breakout ProMX season, which saw him take the MX1 title down to the final moto.

Crawford will be joined by AMA Supercross regular Walsh aboard KTM 450 SX-F machinery for this year’s AUSX season, with the rider originating out of the United Kingdom adding firepower to the orange squad for 2025.

ProMX chargers Ferguson and Dennis will pilot the team’s two official KTM 250 SX-F entries throughout the five-round series, with the former having shown race-winning potential last year after capturing the opening round victory, alongside a strong P3 finish to his motocross campaign already in 2025.

Kyle Blunden, KTM Group Australia Motorsport Manager: “We’re incredibly excited about what’s ahead for the KTM Racing Team in 2025. Bringing Dylan Walsh into our SX1 program alongside Nathan Crawford enhances our world-class presence and the opportunity to showcase KTM at the very highest level of supercross in Australia. Our younger riders – Noah, Byron, and Jackson – are all stepping up with confidence and determination, and we believe they’ll surprise a lot of people this season. At the same time, KTM Australia’s new role as a major partner of the AUSX series underlines our commitment to the sport here at home. We’re thrilled to back not only the series but also the next generation of supercross racers with the KTM SX85 Futures. Supercross in Australia is on an exciting trajectory, and with our riders, our partners, and our fans, we’re Ready To Race.”
