The two-stroke, single-cylinder 84cc engine is equipped with a highly advanced power valve system that generates an easy-to-use wide-spread powerband. Just like the KX112, it features a 6-speed transmission, Dunlop MX33 tires, a slim ergonomics package, aggressive KX styling and excellent cooling performance. Championship performance requires power, which is exactly why the KX85 stands above the competition. - TotalMotorcycle.com
