CONCEPT
KX 85-D
TOP FEATURES
FACTORY RACER IMAGE
The smaller KX machines share the new image of the KX450F/250F. For a factory racer image they feature revised bodywork and seat similar in design to the bigger bikes, adorned with racy works-style graphics.
POWERFUL 2-STROKE ENGINE WITH MORE POWER ACROSS THE REV RANGE
Powerful 85cm3 and 100cm3 2-stroke engines feature advanced technologies developed on the KX series racers. Nikasil-plated cylinders ensure high durability.
FRONT & REAR PETAL BRAKE DISCS
Like the larger-displacement KX motocrossers the minis are equipped with front and rear petal brake discs for impressive braking power and excellent braking feel. Disc diameters are 220 mm at the front, and 184 mm at the rear.
6-POSITION ADJUSTABLE HANDLEBARS
To allow riders to select a preferred riding position, the handlebars have an adjustment mechanism that allows the handlebar position to be adjusted to suit rider size, skill level and preference.
NEW PACKAGE DELIVERS LOWER LAP TIMES
In actual testing against the earlier models, performance in both low- and high-speed corners is improved, and all section times are quicker, for an overall reduction of 5.1 seconds per lap on a course sanctioned for national events.
THE KX DESIGN PHILOSOPHY
Over the forty years since the debut of the KX series, one thing has remained unchanged: they have always been built to win. This philosophy holds true for every machine in the KX series including the KX85/85-II/100.SPECIFICATIONS
