The KTM 65 SX was especially developed for those young riders who want to learn the secrets of dirt bikes. Thereby the bike is perfectly suited for all up-and-coming riders from 8 to 12 years of age and up to a height of about 1.60 m.

The motorcycle is equipped with a 1-cylinder 2-stroke, 64.85 cc, water-cooled engine with reed intake and exhaust control. Power is sent to the rear wheel through a six-speed transmission which offers smooth shifts.

As far as suspensions are concerned both the WP upside-down telescopic fork and the WP shock absorber have adjustable rebound and compression damping.

The motorcycle’s speed is handled by a capable brake system that has been developed by the brake specialist FORMULA. The system includes front and rear heavy-duty 4-piston brake callipers and lightweight 198 mm and 160 mm Wave brake discs.
