Hey guys!
Glad to be joining the kawasaki family :P.
Just bought my first 2-stroke "KDX250 1999".
Atleast that is what the seller said heh.
I would like to know if anyone could help me figure out what the real model and year it is.

I looked up the VIN number at motoverse website and it says:

World region:Asia
Manufactured in:Japan
Year:1996
Make:Kawasaki

At the Kawasaki website I get:

We could not find a match on the VIN provided. Please correct and try again.

Maybe I could take some pictures of specific parts to find the model and/or year.
Someone please give me a hand! I need to know so I can buy some new parts.
Thanks! & Merry Christmas! :D

I don't think they made a KDX250 in 99.

as far as I know, 1994 was the last kdx250 sold state side. There may have been later models sold in japan. I would expect a steel tank there though. Some pics would help for sure.

Plastic tank, so probably not oil injected, US parts may fit.
Have seen some parts manuf' refer to a '96 model, don't know where they were sold.

I think I figured it out :S.
The engine number is : DX200HE003722
The VIN number is : JKADXMHMXTA014214

Think its a KDX200 from 1996.
Am I right?

...tells me that you might need to check that VIN again. One or several of the digits might not be correct.
The VIN definately comes up as a 1996 model.

yeah, double check the vin number please. Again, pictures will almost always help. I'm betting 96 kdx200, but it's impossible to say as we have not yet seen enough information to determine.
