| fudgeington's Full Review: 2003 Kawasaki KX125 |
For many years kawasaki has not been a big contender in the 125cc two stroke engine size. But, no here we have a awsome machine. The 2005 KX125 is a good bike. This bike is all engine. It is very quick out of any turn and loves to be used in the upper revs. But down low, it is not weak. You just have to get used to the power. You have to be on the gas almost everywhere you are on the track. You don't have to clutch the engine alot but, the bike enjoys being controled by the gas. The KX125 turns on a dime, it is very easy to turn and a awsome starter bike in the 125 class. The forks on the bike are not the best out there in the world. But when you adjust them correctly to what you like thay are okay. The get choppy over the small stuff but, when landing off a huge jump they are good. Same goes for the shock. It is comfortable to sit one, even on long trail rides. I just love the engine on this bike and how well it turns. One thing that you find out on this bike once you ride it is its suspenders(shock and forks) are not even compariable to Yamahas or Hondas. If you want a bike with alot of power this is the bike for you.
