Ok - ok - it isn't bike of the year (that goes to the $7K Honda), but it does get the mag's "Best Bang for the Buck" and is included in the top ten bikes of the year. Pretty good news - hope kawasaki reads it and doesnt drop it for the new riggs & stratton version.
BTW - the article mentions that the KDX won Bike of the Year once. What year was that?
Yeah, I like how the KDX got a little 2" by 2" square in the bottom right corner of the page. I almost skipped right over it thinking it was an advertisement. But at least it got mentioned!
