KTM Racing Team has drafted in international Dylan Walsh as part of its Boost Mobile AUSX Supercross Championship roster for 2025, joining Nathan Crawford in SX1, alongside SX2 entries Noah Ferguson and Byron Dennis.

Walsh has featured in Monster Energy Supercross since 2022, with a career-high result of 10th achieved during the 250SX West main event at Anaheim the following year.

The 27-year-old finished 16th overall in this year’s 250SX West series and will make his first full-time AUSX start this season across the five-round series, which commences with Redcliffe’s double-header inside Kayo Stadium on October 11-12.

“I’m really excited to be joining KTM Australia for the supercross season,” commented Walsh. “I feel like I’m back to my roots and they are a proven team with a proven bike, so I can’t wait to get started and challenge for this SX1 title.”

KTM’s official SX2 line-up remains unchanged from ProMX, with Ferguson and Dennis leading the charge on their 250 SX-Fs, with the former in the frame to begin this year’s AUSX series with the same round-winning form he displayed last year.

In addition, KTM Racing Team-supported Jackson Fuller will represent the brand in the SX3 division, while KTM has also been announced as a major partner of AUSX 2025, as well as supporting the newly-introduced KTM SX85 Futures category.

“We’re incredibly excited about what’s ahead for the KTM Racing Team in 2025,” said Kyle Blunden, KTM Group Australia motorsport manager. “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.”
