2020 KTM 65 SX Reviews, Comparisons, And Competition

When Dirt Rider looked at Caleb Tate’s 65 SX, contributing author Mark Kariya related: “Born for the motocross track, the KTM 65 SX can be adept at off-road racing and even long endurance races like the 3 Bros. 10-hour at Glen Helen with a few modifications and regular maintenance.”

Head-to-head comparisons can be made with this model and the Kawasaki KX 65, Yamaha YZ65, and Husqvarna TC 65.
