Engineered by KTM for the cross - motocross motorcycle segment, the 2006 KTM 525 SX features a 510.4 cc (31.1 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 95.0 x 63.4 mm (3.7 x 2.5 inches) with a 11.0:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the 525 SX measures 106 kg (234 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 925 mm (36.4 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,481 mm (58.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 7-liter (1.8 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
