Kawasaki KDX description

1989 KDX200. This was the first year of the water-cooled Kawasaki dirt bikes. The original 89's had some water pump issues but this bike has had those parts replaced with 1990 or 1991 parts. I have owned this bike since 2005. The frame was sandblasted and professionally painted in 2006. The engine top end was also done at that time. I have used it as a "friends" bike since I got my DRZ400 in 2007.

This bike has a some slight cosmetic damage, but it is beautiful for a 27 year-old vintage dirt bike. It is mostly intact, with no large cracks or tears. Tires are ten years old but they werent installed until about 2011. They are still 85-90% and do not show any signs of cracking. The FMF pipe has a few dents in it, but they dont seem to affect the performance. Please see the last few photos for the cosmetic imperfections. Rear mud guard, small tear in seat cover, crack in headlight number plate, and the lights do not work. The odometer cable was gone when I bought the bike, so I have no idea how many actual miles are on it. I have put about 2800 on it. Top end has about 1800 on it.

It's a cliche, but I HATE to get rid of this. I have had 11 years of fun on it. I only rode it twice last year and just a short ride today. I have a DRZ400 and I have learned to get around on the trails pretty good, so I really dont need this one any more. This bike started on the THIRD kick, after having sat for over 8 months! Starts on 1st or 2nd kick with regular use.

Local pick up or I MAY be able to deliver to Iowa, Wisconsin, Illinois, NW Indiana, NE Missouri, Southern MN - for a reasonable fee.

Isle of Man TT 2014: Sure Sidecar TT 2 Results

Thu, 05 Jun 2014

Dave Molyneux won his 17th career TT as he and passenger Patrick Farrance took the second Sidecar race of the 2014 Isle of Man TT. Molyneux is the career leader in Sidecar TT wins and third overall in total Isle of Man TT victories behind Joey Dunlop and John McGuinness. Molyneux and Farrance won the race by a good 44-second margin but they benefited greatly from a mechanical problem plaguing early race leaders John Holden and Andrew Winkle.

Nissin ABS Modulator Recall Explained in NHTSA Documents

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

Earlier this month, we published news about an issue with certain Nissin anti-lock brake system modulators that have been connected to recalls in Canada and Japan from Honda, Suzuki and Kawasaki, with the possibility of it expanding to further models and manufacturers using the same component. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has now released documents from American Honda’s recall of ABS-equipped CTX700 and CTX700N that shed some more light into the issue. According to the documentation, a manufacturing error may have resulted in Nissin ABS modulators being contaminated with aluminum chips.

Italian racebike manufacturer Paton announced its return to international racing in entering the Lightweight TT race in the 2014 Isle of Man TT. The Paton name has been around since 1958, most notably competing in the late ’90s and early 2000s in the Grand Prix World Championship, but has been relatively quiet since the end of the 500cc era. Paton will enter its all-new S1, the company’s first street-legal motorcycle.
