My boys and I share our experience in owning and trail riding a KTM 50 SX. We rode this bike on the trails since they are so light and have great suspension. These are racing bikes and they are great on the track, but are they great on the trails? Depends on how technical it becomes.
Karen (my wife), Kaylee, Konnor Kase, and Kenzie (the kids) thank you for using these links. It is one of the ways we are supporting our family right now.

Quick front sprocket change for trails helps a ton going down a couple teeth makes a huge difference looses a little top end speed but if they are trail riding its helps a ton and the little speed lose isnt to big a deal

Thanks for the review Kyle. This is going to help me a lot in n couple of years when I buy my newborn son his first bike. Just a thing I picked up, according to my knowledge the forward kicking kickstarter on the 50 is designed for the father to start the bike at the racetrack. The older model even had it on the left if my memory serves me right.

Thanks for the review Kyle. Good content as from my experience these bikes are both trail ridden and SX ridden. It's good to hear an honest review for trail riding. If they can ride that on the trail, your kids will rip a bigger bike. My daughter is only 10 months and I am already stoked for her. Thank you!

Just went from a crf50 to a Husky tc50 for my 6 year old. His first race on the tc 50 it stalled halfway through the race and couldn’t get it to stay running. It sounded like what you were describing. I thought maybe water in the fuel because it hasn’t done it since. It made me miss the CRF already! Now my 4 year old is riding the CRF. I wish KTM could improve the reliability of these 50’s. I’ll be so happy when they can be on 65’s!

Thanks again guys!

My son went from a pw50 to a 2021 KTM50 sx we do only track riding and the first day he switched it was an amazing difference. He even as a 7yr old told me man this thing makes it way easier. This bike on a track there’s not a better bike I feel. Trail riding though I bet would he a lot tougher because of the clutch system but on a track wheewwwwww my son was reborn lol.

@lachlanlofts4821 4 жыл бұрын

Couldn't agree more with what you found with this 50. My boy has gone to the 65 (Husky) from the 50 and the tracks and trails we can go on now are more fun for him and I. The novelty definitely wore off owning it after a year. Over heating, carby issues, and even the stator corroding. But even after all this i still loved it.

Awesome perspective! Thanks guys for the real world knoweledge and straigt forward presentation. Now we need one of these vids for the 65's. Wink Wink! I have 10 and 12 year old nephews and I was wondering if KTM 65's wourl be good starter bikes for them? They haven't rode before so I wonder if a 2 stroke 65 is too fast and a four stroke would be beter to start on. I think a honda 50 woudl be too small and havent herd the best things about the 110's (pit bikes) for starter bikes and the 125 four strokes are pigs. After watching this the KTM 65 sounds like a nice bike.

How about those Cobra cx50? I met a guy at the kids mx-track that switched their ktm to cobras for his kids, cx50jr, cx50 king and now also a cx65. He were never going back to ktm. He said you just adjust the clutch once on the cobras and then it just works. I watched his kids ride and the power delivery looked so much smoother than all the ktm’s at the track that were just on/off and the small kids almost fell off their bikes when the clutch engaged.. :) looked lovely like the cobra had a bit more low end torque that those ktm’s? i need to get something bigger for my daughter that is outgrowing her pw50, but the more i look at ktm 50 the less i want to buy her one!

Great review... I wish HONDA made their CRF 50 & 110 with the suspension and brakes that KTM has on the 50min 50sx & 65sx... I’m picking up a HONDA CRF 50, 110, 110, 125, & 125 big wheel next month for my 5 kids. Was to poor to do so till now :-) I feel the suspension is lacking on the HONDA’s. All but the HONDA 50’s now have (EFI) fuel injection which is really attractive to have no carburetor issues. I like you Brotherson will be taking my kids mostly trail riding and the fuel consumption of the 4 strokes, the low end grunt, and the low maintenance of the 2019 HONDA line up really make sense to be simple gas and go bikes for our family. Keep it up with videos. Do some trail bike camping and showcase those kids having some weekend fun on the trails...

Evan's coolant. Will not boil over. Still will get hot, but your not going to lose coolant. Once you lose coolant it wont cool. Heat kills the stators. If it's hard to start= needs top end. As for the carb. Clean, clean, clean and reclean. Add fuel filter....... O do we still get RM cash when using your links?

@therealmacman4504 2 жыл бұрын

I feel like you guys would not have a love-hate relationship if you wrote it with its intended purpose. Unfortunately since it’s a two-stroke engine these KTM 50s are really only meant for kids who want to get into the racing world. In my opinion I think they should’ve just stuck with the CRF 50 because trail riding is way better like you said. The reason the KTM has so little power and then all of it happens at once is because of the way a two-stroke power band is designed. It’s a much narrower power band compared to A four stroke engine so unfortunately you basically get all of the power at once. This video is a little old so I don’t know what you guys do now but what I do know is that if you’re interested in being a trail riding enthusiast ride a four stroke, and if you want to be a racing enthusiast ride a two-stroke

Wow, the dude takes a $5,000 minibike marketed as a “ready to race motocross bike” on trails and spends a 18 minutes video criticizing it, telling the world how you cannot go SLOW with it, and how the gas tank is too small for long trails in the open. W. T. F ???
