I've just recently purchased this bike after years of mx bike riding in the woods. I couldn’t seem to find exactly what I wanted, 125s are fast but have no low-end, 250s have too much low end for the tight stuff. I believe this bike may just be the ticket; it has great pull off the bottom and a fast top end that could be a little better with a pipe and silencer. The hit from bottom to top is smooth, giving you the confidence to really lay into tight stuff without worry of too much wheel spin, to hard-hitting power, launching you into a non-moving tree. In the open, the six speed transmission really opens up to an impressive top end that could even be better with the pipe/ silencer change and, I’m told, removing the snorkel on the breather box to open her up and let it breath free This bike inspires confidence from beginner to old fart like me. The down sides are the bike is a little tall the front forks, they soak up everything but need to be slowed down a bit on rebound which can only be done with a heavier fork oil (no rebound adjustment). The stock chain should be discarded after break in as it stretches like rope. Kawasaki should have giving it the o-ring chain the 220r has. Overall a perfect bike for those riding in the tight wood to wide-open spaces
Upgrades/Accessories: none as yet will buy pipe and silencer combo/ remove snorkel and let you guys / gals know how it goes. a friend in pa
