Kawasaki KX65

...future stars of motocross!
Kawasaki have certainly produced a brilliant machine with the introduction of this model. Early complaints came from KX60 owners, but this bike does need a different style to be ridden to its full potential. It has to be kept in the power band as much as possible, and will certainly be the bike for any budding riders.
My only complaint is of the quality of the stickers, I understand a common problem with Kawasaki.
...remember if you are a parent, that the idea is for your child to enjoy themselves while racing. Smile and encourage them whenever possible and remember that the learning curve for motocross is a very long one.
Give them the best, give them a Kawasaki KX65.

My son, who is eight years old, and has ridden motorbikes since the age of four is now racing a KX65. What a fantastic bike! This machine is simply a scaled down version of the adult machines. The power for such a small machine is incredible, it is not for the faint hearted, and I am talking about the parents, not the future stars of motocross!

My advice, keep a close eye on the brake pad wear.
Please remember if you are a parent, that the idea is for your child to enjoy themselves while racing. Smile and encourage them whenever possible and remember that the learning curve for motocross is a very long one.
