Ktm 65 reviews

So I picked this bike up for cheap to mess around with in the pits behind my house with my friends. When we go pit biking I usually ride my TTR90 but I got the KTM because I love 2-strokes. For its size, it absolutely rips. This bike has tons of power even with me on it and I weigh 170 pounds. Not sure why but the suspension works surprisingly good for me, but I don't do jumps or anything. I just ride around pits and trails. Overall it's a great little bike. The only downfall is it doesn't go very long on a tank of fuel. Show less

I own a KTM SX 65 and I must say this bike hauls. I have beat many 125B riders and a 250B rider. The only thing I don't like about this bike is when I do the 120ft tripples, if I don't land right, I crack a rim. In two race seasons, I have had a new clutch, two rims, a pair of handle bars, three sets of tires, and a kick start assembly. The only factory defects are the bolts that holds the clutch basket in place and the tires are way too soft to ride on any dirt that isn't tilled up. But all together, I have won the Illinois Super Series 65cc Senior, LTM Track Championship 65cc Senior and was fifth in points in the state of Illinois. Even though I am too old to race 65's, I still love going to the track and wooping up on 85's, 125's, 250's and even a KTM 300. Show less

This bike is a rocket! It has more acceration than any other 65 out there! This bike just shoots out of the starting gate! The suspension travel on it is awsome! It'll beat any KX or RM. The seat is a little hard for hare scrambles, but who cares? Everything is made of aluminum, so it's light, but the stuff breaks a lot. I've already broke the clutch twice and the gear oil screw snaped in half. But overall, this bike kicks butt! Show less

This is a great bike as a stepping stone to an 80. It is very torquey and pipey which could scare a novice rider, but nothing that they could not get used to in short order. The quality of this machine is outstanding and has never given us a problem. It starts quickly on 1 kick everytime. This is a perfect bike for a 9-12 year old in the 60-85 lbs. range. Highly recommended. Show less
