Rider Profile

Best For	This is a purpose-built youth motocross machine intended for young, developing riders learning race craft rather than adults or beginners to motorcycling in general.
Purpose	It exists purely for motocross and off-road track competition, designed to teach throttle control, cornering technique and race lines on a scaled-down but genuine race platform.
Rider Fit	Its tiny seat height, low weight and compact dimensions are tailored to small, lightweight riders, typically children transitioning from a KX85 feeder class.
Character	The two-stroke engine and lightweight steel chassis give it a snappy, revvy, highly flickable character that rewards aggressive, active riding over smooth cruising.
Not Ideal For	It is not suitable for adult riders, road use, commuting, touring or carrying a passenger, as it lacks the size, power, lighting and comfort for anything beyond junior off-road racing.

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 759mm, a rider of 68.9" with a 31" (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2007 Kawasaki KX 65, with a cramped knee angle of around 65 degrees and an upright riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
