[QUOTE="dirt bike dave, post: 1363831, member: 18302"] The bike is good bike, but it was poorly set up by Kawasaki. If you have the willingness and expertise to set it up properly, you will be rewarded with a decent bike for a low price. The stock forks are bad, but can be made much better with a revalve and stiffer springs. I also ran no-preload, and put them up as high as you can in the triple clamps to aid in turning (the bike has pretty slow steering). The stock jetting is way off. Far too rich. The bike will run much better with a leaner main, pilot and slide. The stock riding position is not good, and can be improved by removing some foam from the front of the seat. The bike is heavy, but reliable. You can trim some fat off via replacing the pipe and silener and a few other tricks, but she'll always be heavy for a two stroke. On the plus side, the motor is torquey and has a heavy flywheel. It can run well with a pipe, jetting and a high compression KX gasket. The gas tank is large (mine and my friend's both measured 3.6 gallons; I think the manual says 3.2). [/QUOTE]
