Just venting here.......
The KDX has under gone many changes in the last 12 years or so, but almost none in the last 5. Every year they just seem to get new graphics. Now, with this Kawasaki / Suzuki merger, what do we have to look forward to? Kawasaki has already got a KLX400, which is just a sweet looking DRZ. Every year the popular bikes get refinements, is the KDX not a popular bike? When was the last time Dirtbike magazine did a serious review or hop-up on one? I have met more people out in the woods with a KDX than XR's, WR's and DRZ's put together. Atleast these guy's have something to look forward to. The only good part I can see about this merger, is that I may be able to go to the Honda / Suzuki dealer next door to get the parts I need for my KDX. Hey, beats the 45 minute ride to the nearest Kawi dealer......
I am seriously considering unloading my KDX for a new KTM or GAS Gas! I have always been a DIE HARD Kawasaki guy, but I have never liked Suzuki's!
Anybody else have an opinion?
