18' KX250F, my first 4 stroke race bike ever. Big fan of the ergonomics, and well, it is a Kawi, so let the good times roll.

When I went to pick the bike up, I brought along a street bike riding friend of mine, and he ended up bringing home one of the new 450L Honda's. He has never owned an off-road bike before, but so far he is really loving it, although it is taking him a while to get used to the tall seat height.

Haha thats Pretty cool that your buddy got 1 too , he must be an impulsive Dude lol , I got a feeling those Street legal honda 450,'s are gonna be a big hit!
Nice Kawasaki, i personally think Kawasaki's are the best looking Dirt scoot i Dig the Green , and when i sit on every brand of new bike at the Dealer ,
So far Every year i have always Felt the Kawasaki's are the most comfortable ergonomically . I also think they are thr best bang for the buck a person can get right now.
Congratulations.

My buddy had been tossing around the idea of getting a supermoto or one of the higher performance dual purpose bikes (KTM, Husky). Oh and, he is a long time Honda guy, once he laid eyes on it, he had to take it home, but ya, it was 100% a spur of the moment buy for him. Says he loves the engine and suspension, but he hasn't gotten many miles on it yet. Oh and, he got pulled over twice on his first ride with it, so there's that. LOL. Seems his local cops had never seen one before and thought he was attempting to ride a legit 450 race bike around town. LOL.

I did too. Picked up a 2019 YZ 250f for my son and a YZ 450f for myself over the holiday. Bring on the new season.
