To a certain extent yes, but if you are a very good rider lower end bikes definitely limit you. My friend owns an mx shop and does a lot of work with smaller bikes like 85’s and 65’s and has to do a lot of work engine wise with bikes like the Kx, and yz to keep up with the ktm’s.

They should start aiming the kx 65 for competition in 65cc class because Kawasaki has and always had the kx 60 it don't make sense making 2 beginners bikes one only 5cc more then the other. I think that would make way more sense how about y'all?
