My thoughts on my new KX250XC.
So my decision has been made as a few of you already know I have chosen the KX250XC from kawasaki.
the KX250XC is a outstanding bike in the bush although it suffers a lot in the wide open races that only NZ has (more like desert races across farm land)

Rode one of these back to back with a 250FX last week, what a blast. The torque down low and immediate throttle response is addicting, it actually feels similar to my 350 down low. The power falls off up top, where the FX seems to take over, but for fun-factor on a 250F, I don't think these can be beat.

Nice review mate. Have you ridden a KX250? I just wonder if the engine is detuned on the X or if it just has softer suspension. I have a '12 CRF250X and the cam is different and 'I think' the piston and the suspension is softer. I've kept the best things of the X and made it look more like a R. Came out really good. Love the looks of the Kawasaki though and man I want one!
@LosSquid

Nice fucking vid man! finally a review by someone who can actually ride the damn thing. Those rubber bar mounts kawi puts on there bikes are trash. Id throw them out and get an aluminum pair. Ive dropped my bike several times since I replaced mine and haven't had a problem. Did I hear you say you came off a 450? Im considering downsizing to the 250x from my 450f. Just not sure if ill be disappointed by the lack of power compared.
@LosSquid
@LosSquid 3 года назад
Thanks dude!! Yea they are super rubbish I keep twisting them majorly. It depends on your riding style mate I like being asked to just hold the throttle open and not stress about sending it to the moon on a 450 hahah I love the 250x and man has it shined in some places I really didn't expect it too.

Been deciding over a crf250rx or the kx250x. I want a lot of power but the 450 would be to powerful. I’m also going for reliability how’s the kx been maintenance wise
@LosSquid
@LosSquid 3 года назад
Hey mate thats a tough choice!! To very reliable bikes!! I know Honda back in the day were one of the best handling bikes in terms of frame set up. I can't comment now as I honestly have ridden one for a long time. I find the kx250xc no different to any other bike in terms of maintenance. There is a secret map that kawasaki have made up which gives you the black and white mapping into one plug (no its not the same as the green map) I cannot fault my kawasakis and I have had a few in my time. There is a current recall on some of the kx250 2021 as the wrong water pump shift was installed but thats no major kawasaki have done a great job in finding out early and letting everyone know. I do my regular oil changes and maintenance thats all. Where abouts are you from?
