2009 Kawasaki KLX250SM

Summary:

Would buy again!

Faults:

No issues.

General Comments:

250cc Dual Sports are great sized bikes and fit tall people like me. 20HP/15 FT LBS pulls my 210 lbs fine for a relaxed ride 35 to 60MPH. Mountain rides. Will pull a 6% grade in 6th gear @40MPH til a modest head wind needs a downshift. Carb is spot on with 60 plus MPG. Slickest 6 speed shifts without a clunk and clutch engagement through the gears like an automatic transmission. I like the downward beak front fender and thumper sound out of the quiet stock exhaust. Sold my bike to a young man at near the price I paid 5 years ago, prime example with just ordinary maintenance. Only replaced tires.

Would you buy another motorcycle from this manufacturer? Yes
