The starting point for many of today’s Supercross and Motocross champions, the KX65 is the perfect breeding ground for aspiring young riders. With its liquid-cooled, high-performance two-stroke engine, full-race chassis, long-travel suspension and powerful disc brakes, the smallest KX model offers race-ready performance combined with the well-rounded usability necessary for young riders to learn race-craft and hone their skills.

Potent Engine

The heart of the littlest KX is its punchy, 64.7 cm³ liquid cooled 2-stroke powerplant. The race-tuned engine, featuring a digital ignition and low-friction Electrofusion coated cylinder, produces a broad range of strong, usable power.

Front and Rear Disc Brakes

A high-performance engine needs high-performance stopping power and the KX65’s mighty front and rear disc brakes deliver powerful braking performance and high resistance to fade. A re-designed front brake lever now also offers even better feel.

UNI-TRAK® Rear Suspension

The KX65’s UNI-TRAK® rear suspension system features a rising-rate action that increases the damping strength as the suspension compresses. The nitrogen-charged shock offers 4-way rebound damping adjustability.

6-Speed Transmission

The KX’s smooth-shifting six-speed transmission offers a positive shifting action along with rugged durability thanks to hard chromed shift forks. The clutch is operated manually by hand for maximum control and performance.

High-Tensile Steel Frame

The high-tensile steel frame is constructed from the same strong, lightweight, high-tech materials as the bigger KX Motocross bikes to offer exceptional torsional rigidity for superior handling.

Liquid Cooling

The KX’s large, single radiator maintains even engine-running temperatures for optimum horsepower output and greater engine life and durability. The system is extremely low maintenance and highly reliable.
