Engineered by Cobra for the minibike, cross motorcycle segment, the 2019 Cobra CX65 utilizes a 65 cc (4 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke layout. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 44.5 x 41.7 mm (1.8 x 1.6 inches).
On the scales, the CX65 measures 56 kg (123 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 762 mm (30 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,140 mm (44.9 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 4.2-liter (1.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
Within MotoLibrary's Cobra archive, this model family spans 9 indexed model years from 2009 to 2025, allowing buyers to track year-over-year changes in emissions tuning, weight and equipment.
