Having a terrific rider definitely helps, and Monster Energy Kawasaki's Ryan Villopoto's credentials are impeccable, including double-up titles in AMA Supercross and Motocross titles in 2011, followed by another AMA Supercross title in 2012. And in 2013, Villopoto made it 3 straight Supercross championships in a row, becoming the 1st rider to win back-to-back-to-back AMA Supercross titles since the great Ricky Carmichael, another rider whose career blossomed aboard Team Green machines.At a Glance... Launch Control helps to reduce wheelspin on slippery starting gates Kayaba Pneumatic Spring Fork (PSF) uses compressed air to reduce weight, compared to traditional metal-coil fork springs, providing effective tuning and bottoming resistance Includes a free Kawasaki Genuine PSF Air Fork Pump and removable adjustment valve for quick and easy tuning of fork spring pressure Engine is tuned for optimum power delivery all the way from basement revs through the upper rpm range, this results in impressive thrust that continues from corner-exit to the end of the straights Piston crown shape allows for superior ultra-low to mid-range engine response Intake cam features slightly less lift, to promote better low-rpm throttle response Front master cylinder features a knocker-style lever-to-piston interface for improved brake feel and more consistent performance than the old piston-type unit Wide, low-density grips make life easy on the rider's hands Lightweight 240mm petal-type rear rotor features the same aggressive petal style as the front rotor and is gripped by a single piston hydraulic rear caliper Launch Control helps to reduce wheelspin on slippery starting gates Pre-programmed ignition maps are interchangeable trackside, no PC required Adjustable 4-position handlebar and 2-position footpegs allow riders to fit the KX to match their personal preference Black anodized aluminum rims for a factory look Narrower grips are softer and more comfortable for 2014Engine Overview 449cc, liquid-cooled, DOUBLE OVERHEAD CAMSHAFT, four-stroke single with legendary Kawasaki power! Works-based bridged-box bottom piston has optimum rigidity for max high-rpm power and durability A forward lean angle of three puts the engine in the ideal position for max traction Highly balanced crankshaft, on par with Villopoto's factory racer, creates minimal vibration and has a high inertial mass to help maximize rear wheel traction Compact cylinder head is only 100mm tall Double valve springs help ensure stable valve operation and also allow for a short cylinder head height Camshafts, lobes and tappet surfaces feature a soft-nitride treatment for long wear and high-rpm reliability Automatic cam chain adjuster is maintenance-free Crankshaft and connecting rod feature a special carburizing and quenching treatment to maximize rigidity, boosting longterm reliability without adding weightDigital Fuel Injection Digital Fuel Injection (DFI) self-adjusts to atmospheric changes for easier starting, sharper throttle response and accessible power for jumping It is not necessary to re-tune or change any jets to suit climatic conditions like carbureted models Ultra-fine atomizing injector with twelve holes sprays particles with a droplet size of 60 for smooth power delivery and engine response throughout the throttle range 43mm throttle body uses a progressive throttle linkage to deliver airflow in much the same way as an FCR carburetor Using 2 linked shafts, the throttle body opens more quickly after reaching the 3/8 open position Fast-idle knob on the throttle body allows riders to increase
