kx 65 sag

[Roy]

How much sag should a 2000 kx 65 have?

My suspension tuner said the 65's need less sag than big bikes. Maybe 2-3"? But I run a lot on my little guys KTM 65 since he is 6 and only weighs 55 lbs.

I was told by Factory Connection to go with 80 mm for my son's KX 65.

Sag should be set at 1/3 total wheel travel. The KX65 has 9.45 inches (240mm) of travel, so 1/3 of that is 3 inches. 80mm as suggested by Walt/Factory Connection, is right on the mark.


2 inches, as suggested above, would be way too stiff, throwing the balance of the front/rear suspension off.
