The 2004 Kawasaki KX250 is a middleweight off-road motorcycle for the intermediate and experienced riders. It sport a steel frame designed to provide the ultimate rigidity with minimal weight and the re-engineered swingarm now boasts new sporty linkage angles for better response to the demands of the discerning pilot. With separate air and oil chambers, the front Kayaba suspension is fully adjustable and can offer innumerable setups when combined with the 16-way adjustable compression and rebound rear shock. The 249cc 2-stroke engine is no toy: it produces more than 58 hp, so the addition of petal brake discs is a most welcome upgrade.
