Suzuki's KDX

[Ryan_KDX_]

Will Suzuki ever get to sell their version of the KDX, or are their no plans to introduce this model? It seems like theyve (Kawasaki & Suzuki) shared most of their other bikes, why not the KDX?

 

[Tom Ludolff]

Like many others, they probably figure the 2-stroke woods bike is a dying breed.

 

[Danman]

They did away with there 2-stroke woods bike when they introduced the DRZ. They had the RMX.

It would be intresting to see Suzuki sell the KDX as the RMX.  It would make parts more available and we could get that lovely yellow pplastic for the green machine!  :cool:

I spoke to the guys at my local ccm dealer who sell kawa and suzuki and tm and they said that the suzuki improved powervalve and shock desighn of the kdx will be available for the 2004 market! The truth in in that rumour , un fortunately i do not know! Any one else here similar?

 

[KelvinKDX]

That doesn't seem to make too much sense if the 2-strokes are supposedly out in 2006.

 

[Matt90GT]

The 04 bikes are on the manufacturer's website now.

Since the full sized 2 strokes are still very different bikes, the KDX is not going to be included in the sharing. You have to remember the engine is based off the kx125 motor.

But nothing is coming down the pipe as a yellow KDX this year. I work at a yamaha/kawi/honda shop

2 strokes will still continue past 2006 so don't worry.

The tight restrictions are for street bikes, not closed course competition bikes.

suzuki has a rmx200 that sells only in europe, I don't know how to post a pic but if somebody gives me there email address I'll email it to them and they can post it.........

Hmm,.. I've found some small bore two-strokes both street (100/115cc) and dirt (125-185) made in brazil and distributed in the dealers network but the 200's appear to be 4-stroke's. The closest thing to a KDX is the TS-185 and it's like a early 80's enduro (heavy, street oriented). No RMX 200 though, I reemember a RMX 250 in Autralia (i think) but I think it was a dealer conversion, not a factory offering.

Look at the Egypt, Brazil and others to learn how global marketing works.

Kawasaki also has a global site, see the Kaw 125 street/enduro bike that we don't get.

The TS200R is on the streets here. Just a few of them but they run great when maintained right. I've often thought about getting one.
