POTENT PACKAGE
With larger wheels and greater ground clearance than the standard KX85, the KX85-II is the perfect machine for young teenagers not quite ready for a full-size MXer.
Featuring the same technologically advanced perimeter frame, potent 2-stroke engine and long travel, fully adjustable suspension as its small-wheeled brother, the KX85-II is a mini-powerhouse with the race-winning speed and performance that championships are made of.
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
|
Oversize Black Alumnite Wheels The KX85-II’s large 19” front wheel (17” on KX85) and 17” rear wheel (14” on KX85) give it greater obstacle roll-over ability, extra ground clearance and a higher seat height for the taller rider. | |
|
85cc Powerhouse The KX85-II’s liquid-cooled, two-stroke, single-cylinder 84cc engine has got the mumbo to get you to the front of the pack and keep you there. Featuring an Electrofusion-coated cylinder, 28mm PWK carburettor and carbon fibre reeds, it pumps out a broad range of strong, usable power. | |
|
6-Speed Transmission The KX’s smooth-shifting six-speed transmission offers a positive shifting action along with rugged durability thanks to hard chromed shift forks and new bushings added to the second, third and fourth gears on the output shaft. | |
|
Perimeter Frame Setting the KX85-II apart from the competition is its advanced, high-tensile steel perimeter frame. Its increased rigidity and lower centre of gravity (Thanks to a centralised fuel tank) adds up to superior handling and rider feedback. | |
|
UNI-TRAK® Rear Suspension Kawasaki’s unique UNI-TRAK® rear suspension system enables adjustable spring preload, compression damping and rebound damping for optimal setup and performance. A revised design for 2006 offers even greater durability. | |
|
36mm Inverted Forks 36mm inverted cartridge forks utilise a 49.5mm upper tube for increased rigidity and better steering response and control. 18-way compression damping adjustment enables precise dialling-in to suit a range of rider requirements.
