Built around KTM's minibike, cross motorcycle platform, the 2024 KTM 65 SX utilizes a 64.9 cc (4 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke layout. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 45.0 x 40.8 mm (1.8 x 1.6 inches).
On the scales, the 65 SX measures 53.5 kg (118 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 730 mm (28.7 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,270 mm (50 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 4.5-liter (1.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
