Kawasaki KX description

2005 Kawasaki KX 250, Great all around bike. Call 503-769-8888The new KX250 is phenomenal! When matched up against the stock 2004 version, there s simply no comparison at all. The new motor is vibrant and alive, and packs a serious punch throughout the entire power range. The 04 KX250 wasn t a total slouch off the bottom, but the 05 delivers more, and it does so across the board. It revs further in every gear, and where the top-end used to sign off, the new motor keeps on singing. Probably the most impressive thing about the powerband, however, is how useable it is. Thanks to a completely revised chassis and suspension, the KX ranks among one of the best tracking bikes that we can remember to date. The Cahuilla Creek circuit features a number of uphill, high-speed sweeping situations that can often times be tough to navigate. Where some bikes tend to skkip, push, and wander to the outside of said terrain, the new KX250 holds an amazingly straight line. In addition, the new, steeper rake angle did in fact improve the cornering and overall handling like the Kawi engineers were hoping. It turns great, and holds a perfect line through rutted corners. The updated suspension is very well balanced, although we did make a few adjustments to the compression clickers to fine-tune the ride. Speaking of balance, a consistent complaint about the KX250 over the years has been that it tends to fly front wheel high. For 05, unless you sit on the rear fender off jump take offs, KX riders won t have a balance complaint any longer.

Thu, 30 Jul 2009

Motorcycle communities are a huge resource for any kind of project or help you might need.  It’s incredible the amount of stuff people post and the effort they put into it! arturo3rd on Kawiforums.com posted some great tips and photos on how to shave down your motorcycle seat for a more comfortable ride. Things you’ll need: flat screwdriver pliers sharp knife(steak) rough grit sand paper staple gun I’m unsure if all motorcycle seats are made of the same material so be wary before you start if your motorcycle isn’t a Kawasaki.

Results From Day 2 Of World Superbike Testing At Phillip Island

Tue, 18 Feb 2014

World Superbike testing at Phillip Island came to a close today, and when the dust settled, reigning champion Tom Sykes stamped his authority, setting the fastest time of the test at 1:30.239, just five thousandths shy of the outright lap record held by Carlos Checa. The time was set during the morning session of testing, though nobody was able to best Sykes for the remainder of the day. Eugene Laverty, who was fastest on day one, showed his pace was no fluke as he stayed near the top of the time sheets, ultimately finishing second behind Sykes, with a best time of 1:30.513.

Schoolboy Heroes

Fri, 04 Mar 2011

A wet and grey day in Calais in 1992 wouldn’t be the obvious situation for a life changing experience, but for a 11 year old lad on a boring booze cruise from Dover this is exactly what happened. Pockets bulging with funny money I headed to the Tabac for the obligatory bangers, dirty playing cards and some sweets.  Then it happened, I stood in front of the magazine rack and reached up, as if drawn by an external force.  At the time I wasn’t tall enough for Playboy or L’ Escort so settled for a copy of Moto Verte, the French motocross mag.  Life would never be the same again. Inside there was a double page spread, with a fresh faced Jeremy McGrath resting a leg over his #15 Honda CR125.  Sporting a pair of fluro MX trousers with a, now retro, bright white surname emblazoned jersey, and casting an eye over a seriously vast motocross park.  I stared at this Sinisalo advert all the way home, partly because all the articles were in foreign, but also because I was transfixed.  What and how do I become a motocross champion?
