2021 KTM 85 SX First Real Ride!

This is part of the footage I shot on the first real trail ride we went on with the 2021 KTM 85 SX. Konnor is 12 and hasn't hit his growth spurt just yet. We went with the small wheel version of this bike which is a 17" front wheel and 14" rear wheel.
By the end of the ride, Konnor said this is his "favorite bike ever". I'm really happy with it so far. We installed a Lectron carb to make the jetting easier in the various places we ride.

    I have a husqvarna 85 and me and my dad do enduros and crosscountry and the biggest thing that helped me in the trails was a reckluse. My dad first got a reckluse on his KTM 350 and he loved said it made the bike way easier to ride in the trails. I tried it on my 85 and it made it way more fun to ride and you were also able to bog kinda like my husky te150i. Another thing thta helps is a stering stabilizer which helps with arm pump on the longer rides or races.

    Good to see you slowly moving them up. I went from a 50 at 11 to a 85 at 12 to a 450 and 125 at 13. I’m good now but it was a lot more wrecking and struggling to get good on them than it should have if I went slowly.

    The Lectron carburetor was the best money I spent on my son’s ‘18 KTM 85. Coupled with FMF exhaust and a Kreft power dial, the bike is amazing. The Lectron is great for that bike. I recommend ordering the carburetor direct from the Lectron website because it gives you the ability to supply them with custom information such as riding elevation, location, and type of riding. It came out of the box dialed in; I didn’t have to change a thing. It also ended the bike’s spooging everywhere despite jetting changes.

    I bought my son a 2020 KTM 85 SX, and the jetting was super rich stock. The one thing I really dislike about the 85, is the turning radius. Those radiators are too far forward, preventing a tight turning radius. My 2020 TE 300i, has a tighter turning radius.

    Once he gets used to that 85 is when he's going to start to scare the crap out of you. When my son moved into the 85 class years ago it wasn't long before he was trying to spank out the 90-foot triple on one of our tracks. First time he tried he overshot it by 10 ft and flat landed it but never crashed. After that he was jumping everything in sight every track we went to scare the beans out of you. Good luck👍

When I see pinion pines and juniper approaching 20 feet in height I know longer consider that desert. Especially if an area is receiving more than 8 or 9 inches of annual precipitation.

I was apprehensive at first but after seeing him put about 10 hours on it I’m so happy I moved him into that bike. Congrats Kyle! Oh and you’ll want to upgrade the tank to the 2.2 from IMS. We learned very quickly that the factory 1.4 gallon tank will barely do one full loop where we ride.

    It's funny how most of us start out on an MX bike for trail riding and figure out how terrible they are. Then you watch the kids do the same thing, but instead of them complaining, they just keep getting better and better. Unfortunately there really isn't a great performance enduro bike for kids. They all seem to be full race or full SLOW.
