The professional seller offers for sale this 1998 Kawasaki KX60, powered by a 60 cc single-cylinder two-stroke engine. Finished in classic Kawasaki green with black number panels and a black seat carrying green 60 graphics, this KX60 has the purposeful look of a genuine junior motocross racer. The seller states the mileage as 0 miles. Notable details include a Bill’s Pipes expansion chamber made in the USA, a Moose Racing handlebar pad, a gold-coloured rear shock, front number plate and spoked wheels with knobbly tyres. The bodywork shows signs of use, including a visible repair on the rear fender, which is in keeping with a competition machine that has clearly been enjoyed. According to the seller, the KX60 will need to be recommissioned before use, making it an attractive project for a collector or a young rider’s family. The bike is supplied with its Canadian papers, and the seller confirms that all import duties and VAT have already been paid.
Kawasaki’s KX range has been at the heart of motocross since the seventies, and the KX60 was the brand’s answer for the youngest racers stepping up from minibikes to real competition. Introduced in the eighties and built for many years, it packed a responsive two-stroke single, a manual gearbox and full-size racing features into a compact chassis, giving children a true race bike in miniature. Countless future champions started their careers on small-displacement KX models, and the KX60 is remembered as a robust and competitive machine that laid the foundations for the later KX65. Today, original KX60s are increasingly hard to find, as most were raced hard and modified over the years. That makes a recognisable example like this one an appealing piece for collectors of Kawasaki motocross history and for enthusiasts building up vintage youth racing collections.
