At the end of the day though, the KTM SX-E 5 is another great addition to the KTM mini bike line up, that will suit a vast majority of young riders, and offers a great platform to learn to ride a motorcycle and from our short experience has a lot more upside than any possible downside we can think of.
Check back in the near future for part two, where we take the KTM E-5SX racing! Yep that is right we managed to find a club that allowed us to race against a full field of KTM 50SX’s and a Cobra, and while we did not race the SA State titles on the E-5 a number of riders were given an exemption to race it, so we will look at some observations we had from the sidelines on how the bike looked to perform.
Also, check out our highlights on our INSTAGRAM page to see how our days out testing went down and get a better idea of how the KTM E-5SX Works,
