2023 KTM 65 SX Off-Road Bike Review Specs Price

The 2023 KTM 65 SX Off-Road Bike uses the same approach to development as its larger 2-Stroke siblings, including the newest WP XACT suspension technology and a clutch and transmission worthy of a full-size motocross bike. You’d be wrong to assume that this is anything less than a severe READY TO RACE racing weapon.

Here at KTM, we’re used to being the first of our kind. The standard is a friend of ours.

Our KTM SX lineup has been breaking records for years now, and it’s not hard to see why: they have unrivaled torque, power, and weight ratios, unparalleled cornering agility and the sharpest sensation, and remarkable starting skill and aesthetics. You’ve never ridden one of our KTM SXs, have you? You may see intense orange at any race, whether amateur or professional. We’ve taken home a few championships in the recent decade on the pro racing circuit.

Now, more than ever, we need your complete focus and attention. Why? We have been hard at it. Our goals align perfectly. Our end goal remains the same. Both of our methods are identical. However, we have achieved a new level of performance and conception with our accomplishments.

2023 KTM 65 SX Off-Road Bike – Features and Specs

Exhaust

The KTM 65 SX’s superior performance and handling come from an exhaust system tuned to complement the engine’s power characteristics.

Engine

The KTM 65 SX, like its larger siblings, has an advanced 2-stroke engine, a completely manual 6-speed gearbox, and a hydraulic clutch. The cylinder’s pressure-controlled exhaust valve, together with the established ignition curve, allows it to maintain top performance in its class.

Cylinder

The pressure-controlled exhaust valve (PCEV) in the high-performance cylinder ensures unmatched performance in the fiercely contested 65 cc class.

The Formula hydraulic clutch on the KTM 65 SX is a standout component. Even with gloves, the clutch action is light, and the modulation is precise.

Crankcase cooling and two radiators are part of a sophisticated cooling circuit that maximizes heat transfer while maintaining a stable operating temperature.

Chassis Fuel tank

Don’t let the 2023 KTM 65 SX’s 3.5-liter fuel tank deceive you; it can last the whole race.

Frame

This cutting-edge framework is manufactured from lightweight, high-strength chromoly steel profiles and has optimal torsional rigidity and maximum longitudinal stiffness. It ensures not only excellent stability at high speeds but also effortless handling and pinpoint corners. The KTM 65 SX can be started by stomping on the gas, as claimed.

Swingarm

A lightweight cast aluminum swingarm is responsible for the bike’s rear suspension. The design, developed using cutting-edge computational and modeling tools, was conceived with efficiency in weight, stiffness, and adaptability as primary goals. It also has a solid 2-compound chain guide, much like the larger versions.

Wheels

The 2023 KTM 65 SX, like the full-size KTM Factory racers, has black anodized aluminum wheels that are both lightweight and very strong and durable. New MAXXIS MX-ST tires provide these unbeatable grips no matter the terrain.

Front Suspension

The WP XACT fork on the KTM 65 SX has AER technology. For superior comfort, damping qualities, and directional stability, the upside-down front fork has a 35 mm tube diameter and 215 mm of travel. The essential advantage for young riders is the air spring in the left fork leg, which can be precisely adjusted to the rider’s weight using a simple air pump.

Rear Suspension

The WP XACT shock absorber, which is of exceptional quality, is connected directly to the swingarm. The damping may be fine-tuned to fit the needs of every young racer and any given circuit. There is less of a possibility of the vehicle bottoming out because of the 270 mm of rear wheel travel made possible by the shock absorber.

New hydraulic brake and clutch systems from FORMULA, as well as a giant rear brake disc, are included on the 2023 KTM 65 SX, guaranteeing rapid and effective braking. The hydraulic braking system is simple, has excellent stopping power, and meets or exceeds all applicable performance requirements.

The rider is further safeguarded in the case of a collision by a foam bar pad on the handlebar brace.
