In order to determine the fastest dirt bike in the world, you need to consider that there are different types of bikes with different kinds of engine and power output. The fastest 250cc dirt bikes are the Kawasaki XK 250 and the Yamaha WR250F, both have a top acceleration of 85 mph and similar features. The most powerful 450cc bike is the KTM 450 SX-F with a speed of 123 mph.

What Makes a Dirt Bike Fast?

When you’re thinking about speed, it’s important to understand how the engine and power output work. Dirt bikes have either a 4-stroke or a 2-stroke engine. 2-strokes take two motions to complete a cycle, compression and combustion, while 4-stroke engines have four functions: exhaust, combustion, compression and intake. A bike with a 2-stroke engine will be more powerful straight off the mark, but a 4-stroke bike despite being heavier, will be able to maintain more power over a longer ride. A 4-stroke 250cc engine has a top speed of around 80mph, while a 2-stroke has a maximum speed of about 85mph. 2-strokes can generate power quicker than 4-strokes which makes them ideal for getting started on a strong note in competitive races or for accelerating out of corners. 4-strokes are more efficient and provide long-lasting power and endurance. Ultimately the type of dirt bike you choose will be based on the kind of riding that you'll be doing. Other factors that affect the speed of your bike and riding include your weight and height, experience, quality of your bike and riding conditions. A heavier or taller rider may not be able to accelerate as quickly as a smaller rider; lighter and shorter riders have a better chance of winning speed records. The weight of the bike also plays a role in speed; heavier bikes with a 450cc engine can be slower than lighter bikes with the same engine capacity.

In this week’s first segment, Senior Editor Nic de Sena take a look at the Ducati DesertX ADV bike. Powered by the same liquid-cooled V-twin motor as several other models in the Ducati range, the DesertX is another entry into the upper-middleweight class of ADV machines. The big question of course, is can the DesertX make its mark and differentiate itself from a growing field of competitors?

The second segment is the premiere of our new series of ‘Owner Reviews’. These are real-world opinions of machines owned by everyman riders. For this first one, I chat with my friend Dale Wagler. Dale is a former Marine and hard-core street- and dirt-bike rider. Dale recently acquired a new BMW 1250 GS Adventure, and he gives us his thoughts on the bike’s positives—and a few negatives too. If you’d like to be considered for a future Owner Reviews segment on an episode of Motos & Friends, please email us at [email protected] and tell us briefly about your bike. We’d love to hear from you! So, from all of us here at Motos & Friends… we hope you enjoy this episode!
