- - Industry-leading amateur racing support through Team Green
64cc Two-stroke Engine
- - Digital ignition offers ideal timing for optimal throttle response throughout the rev range
- - Ignition rotor features rare-earth magnets, making it smaller, lighter and more durable. Its low inertial moment improves low-rpm response
- - High capacity ignition coil delivers a higher secondary voltage for a hotter spark, and the punchier response improves acceleration
- - Connecting rod big-end bearing features a cage for added durability
- - Primary gear is secured using a lock-nut to help reduce mechanical noise
- - The oil seal of the left crankcase has a stopper for increased engine reliability
- - Metafoam gaskets are used for the generator cover, water pump cover and water pump elbow for improved sealing
Electrofusion Cylinder
- - Advanced exhaust and transfer ports increase power and performance at higher rpm
- - Bridge between exhaust ports is machined for increased reliability and resistance to wear and seizure
- - Lightweight cylinder liner transfers heat efficiently for cooler running
Liquid Cooling
- - Large radiator provides more consistent engine temperatures, keeping power output strong throughout the moto
- - Cooling system offers greater reliability and less engine wear
24mm Mikuni Carburetor
- Feeds a four-petal reed valve for excellent throttle response
- Allows the engine to produce more power and torque at all rpm
Six-speed Transmission
- - Positive action and rugged durability
- - Hard chrome-finished shift-fork ends resist wear
- - Manual clutch mechanism mirrors larger KX models
- - Clutch cover gasket made of metal-carbon composite material
High-tensile Steel Frame
