|
65cc
|
Bore Stroke 65Sx:
|
Approx. 43.5mm x 43.7mm (typical for this era)
|
Cooling System:
|
Liquid-Cooled (for 65 SX) / Air-Cooled (potential for some 60 SX variants, though 65 SX is typically liquid-cooled)
|
Ignition System:
|
CDI (Capacitor Discharge Ignition)
|
Compression Ratio 65Sx:
|
Approx. 8.5:1 - 9.0:1 (typical for this era, specific value in manual)
|

|
V-Force or similar dual-stage reed block common in performance 2-strokes of this era.
|
Transmission Gearbox Design:
|
Sequential constant-mesh, providing smooth and precise gear changes under load.
|
Performance
|
Horsepower 65Sx:
|
Approx. 15-18 HP at peak RPM (estimate, specific to manual)
|
Torque 65Sx:
|
Approx. 8-10 lb-ft (estimate, specific to manual)
|
Fuel System
|
Carburetor Type:

|
Maintenance
|
Service Intervals
|
Routine Maintenance Intervals:
|
Spark plug inspection/replacement (every 10-20 hours), air filter cleaning/replacement (after each ride or as needed), chain adjustment/lubrication (after each ride), clutch free play check (as needed). Top-end rebuilds (piston/rings) typically recommended every 40-60 hours of hard use. Bottom-end rebuilds vary greatly depending on usage and maintenance.
|
Fluid Specifications
|
Engine Oil Premix:
|

|
Known Issues
|
Common Wear Items:
|
Piston rings, piston, connecting rod bearings, clutch plates, swingarm bearings, steering stem bearings, wheel bearings, spark plug, air filter.
|
Typical Failures:
|
Overheating (liquid-cooled), premature top-end wear due to inadequate premix or dirt ingress, clutch slippage, gearbox issues if oil is neglected.
