2013 KTM 85 SX Features
Engine and Transmission – The sensational engine has been completely overhauled and delivers its power over a wide rev range with development on its intake membrane and intricate exhaust control. New and more compact cylinder with 47 mm bore ensures that achieves much better cylinder charging, more efficiently designed, centrifugally-controlled exhaust valve. Together with a new cylinder head, which is now also connected to the frame, the new engine therefore produces significantly more power from mid-range to top-end engine speeds. The six-speed transmission always has the right gear ratio available.
Chassis and Suspension – The new, high quality, chrome-molybdenum steel frame and the redesigned, bolt-on, lightweight aluminium sub-frame have been further refined in many details. As on the full-size bikes, the frame impresses with more precise cornering characteristics. Additional aluminium profiles ensure better stability. Rebound and compression damping can be adapted individually to track and rider in no time at all with the proven 43 m upside-down fork with 270 mm suspension travel and the improved PDS shock absorber ensure optimum traction and suspension comfort on the KTM 85 SX 2013.
