Kickstarter
A new, lighter, more ergonomic kickstart lever makes firing the 2024 KTM 65 SX a cinch for little legs. Not only has the kickstart lever been designed to match the new frame and engine design perfectly. It also ensures easy access for quick restarts while being perfectly packaged to be out of the way when tearing up the berms.
Carburetor
A proven Mikuni TM 24 carburetor takes a prime position in producing the goods in the 2024 KTM 65 SX, with updated settings that work perfectly in harmony with the new engine, exhaust, and air intake design.
Adjustablity
The 2024 KTM 65 SX is designed to grow with the little racer, by being height adjustable. Different adjustability options were built into the KTM 65 SX construction using scientific statistical data and manikins. So, finding the right fit for your little ripper is ultra easy, thanks to height adjustable suspension, handlebar position, subframe, and bodywork, taking the seat height from a low 715mm, to a taller 760mm.
Ignition
A new digital ignition from Hidria finds its way onto the 2024 KTM 65 SX, with improved processing power and an all-new ignition curve, making for a cleaner burn and smoother power delivery.
Transmission
The transmission on the 2024 KTM 65 SX has undergone a complete refresh. From general durability to overall quality, the transmission maintains the same legendary performance but now presents as a more comprehensive and hardy unit. This is paired with a new forged shift lever offering improved functionality, while the reliable and light hydraulic clutch system guarantees even wear and near maintenance-free operation.
Spark Plug
There's no more worrying about breaking the plug, thanks to the 2024 KTM 65 SX featuring a new spark plug from BRISK with a longer thread. Also, thanks to this innovation from BRISK, the part number is printed on the spark plugs for easy reading - even while screwed in place.
Easy Servicing
Servicing and general maintenance are made simple, thanks to draining noses for liquids and added service markers on the engine (â–²) that clearly show where to use washers, making maintenance and service easier than before. Nm markings clearly show how to tighten relevant screws to avoid overtightened or too loose bolts. Many of the screws on the engine case have also been unified to the same screw length on the engine case.
Performance
Featuring the latest in 2-stroke technology, the 2024 KTM 65 SX sets the benchmark at the starting gate. Besides using the lightest and most durable materials, the engine features a pressure-controlled exhaust valve that delivers top-level performance through its manual 6-speed transmission. A new mounting concept for the crankshaft also makes for easier maintenance.
Cylinder
The 2024 KTM 65 SX features a high-performance cylinder made from lightweight and durable aluminum that incorporates a pressure-controlled exhaust valve (PCEV), providing unrivaled performance.
Ergonomics
The all-new bodywork of the 2024 KTM 65 SX is the perfect example of KTM's commitment to providing the ultimate starting point for young racers. Mimicking the full-size KTM SX range, the KTM 65 SX features the same advancements found in the larger KTM SX classes. Slimmer, sleeker, and better suited to standing on the pegs, the side panels now work much better with young riders' boots, allowing proper squeezing of the bike when standing up. The front number plate incorporates plastic flaps to protect the lower triple clamps from roost. At the same time, the tank spoiler features a bicomponent technology featuring the KTM-specific texture on the upper part. Side number plates are kept as close to the frame as possible, with the general seat line sitting slightly flatter compared to the old generation.
Frame
Right, this is a big one. The 2024 KTM 65 SX boasts an all-new high-strength chromium molybdenum steel frame design. Unprecedented quality of the Mini frame could be achieved with forged connecting parts, carefully calculated parameters of longitudinal flex and torsional rigidity, and incorporated sheet metal parts that allow tailormade stiffness. The new frame layout features a typical MX design without any cross tube behind the steering head. The rear shock mount is separated from the main upper frame tube like on our full-size models. The frame now also comes with frame protectors as standard.
Tank
The KTM 65 SX is ready to fuel the fire in your little ripper with an updated tank design to compliment the new frame concept and bodywork.
Airbox and Filter
An all-new airbox concept features a conventional suction sleeve made from a hard-wearing polyamide instead of rubber and a Twin Air filter mounting system that now features snap locks for easy and intuitive mounting. The Twin Air filter is also placed under the seat and is easily accessible without any tools by simply removing the seat. It also features improved dirt intrusion resistance, with no more dirt falling into the intake tract when changing the filter.
