At the heart of the 2025 KTM 85 SX 19-16 cross - motocross motorcycle, KTM pairs a 84.9 cc (5.2 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 47.0 x 40.8 mm (1.9 x 1.6 inches).
On the scales, the 85 SX 19-16 measures 69 kg (152 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 871 mm (34.3 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,282 mm (50.5 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 54-liter (14.3 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
