I had one (a 1996 model) for several years. It was a fantastic bike. I did everything from leading beginers on trail rides to racing Hare Scrambles (my first race win came on a KDX) to riding the Budd's Creek MX track (my YZ125 was out of action and we had a club ride there so I took the KDX, you should have seen the look on people's face when they saw a stock KDX doing the big doubles and table tops!!). Unfortunately, it was sacrificed to the financial and schedule demands of college. I am just getting back into riding after a 4 year hitatus - picking up a pristine 01 CR250R (set up for enduros) this week :)
