Young riders craving a crack at racing once they’ve mastered the basics need the perfect bike to take that first step. Enter the ideal choice, the Kawasaki KX™65. Whether it’s a day at the track with a group of friends or competing in a fully-sanctioned motocross race, the KX65 is an excellent platform for developing and honing racing skills. With its liquid-cooled, high-performance engine, full-race chassis, long-travel suspension and disc brakes, the smallest KX model is a perfect beginning for young riders who aspire to motocross greatness. Moving the KX65 along is its liquid-cooled, 64cc two-stroke engine mated to a smooth-shifting, six-speed manual transmission with a manual clutch. The engine is bolted into a semi-double-cradle steel frame, and like the larger KX models, the KX65’s swing arm uses the UNI-TRAK® linkage system, which applies progressively stiffer damping and spring rates to the single rear shock as the suspension is compressed. The shock and fork boast four-way adjustable rebound damping for optimal handling.
